Hey everyone, I just bought a new 2014 Nismo. I want to do some up grades to it. Already got a fast dimensions cat back with hfc's and stillen gen 3 intake. I was wondering what else (kind of minor) that could be done. Are things like oil cooler and clutch helper spring good to have? Or are they really not necessary.
Thank you for your help.

wats a fast demented? :ugh2:

Pre 2013 had a bigger issue with oil temperatures. But only if you track the car or live in a very hot climate. You might have to wait until the hot Jersey summer to see if it's an issue.


Oil temps shouldn't b a problem for the op in jersey. I've driven around in mid 90 degree temps in the middle of August and I was fine. Even made a trip down to North Carolina with no overheating issues.

Ok, thanks for the advice everyone, I appreciate it.
Already upgraded the head unit, I couldn't take that god awful factory one. Tint is done, CAI and CBE, HFC will be done shortly!

I'd put in sway bars and lowering springs like swifts or stiffer H&Rs before the cooler. Makes the driving experience way better.

Yep agreed. Mine is getting that and the tints done on Sunday. Hopefully I can push then to do the side skirts and also the rear fenders with the price I agreed upon also. I think the sideskirts and rear lower fender flares will get chipped.

Installed blend mount for my 9500ix with invisicord.

I recomend stillen HFC and G3 intake.

Makes a big difference for the $$

For me, I'll be doing a 25% tint and considering plastidipping clear over the whole car. Considering I work on car audio, I'll probably end up doing that second. Total overhaul of audio system, needs to happen. Bose system... bleh.

Just finished my K&N drop-in's, haven't tested them yet; I will be upgrading to a NISMO exhaust later. In the long run, plenum, & pulley's.

Congrats. I came very close to doing drop ins, then the mod bug gave me mod fever so I ordered G3s, RHFCs, and FI CF non-resonated exhaust in July. My first mod should be a big jump. Keep an eye out on the parts for sale list. There are tons of folks who are selling nice exhausts for a good price. Enjoy!

I'm looking for an exhaust myself or hfc as my first mod.


@Darketch
your right and I hope it stays that way. Almost ready to scoop one up myself

Im kinda torn between my first budget mod. First thing I want to do is make my exhaust louder along with gaining a few extra hp. So should I be getting HFCs or a beluga exhaust? Been reading the intakes should be the first mod. So which one? Budget is ~$300

BrianMSmith 11-22-2015 09:37 PM

I have always found replacing OEM shock absorbers with high end aftermarket transforms a car. That's what I'd do. A much bigger effect than any bolt on engine or exhaust mods. Then I'd do the brakes, similar reasons. Then do exhaust and engine.
