1) How is the quality of the Nismo strut/spring/sway bar combo + 20mm spacers? This car will be a second vehicle driven on the street only, but I like the slightly lowered stance. Adding these upgrades at delivery will keep the wife from asking too many questions. Ha ha.

2) How is the quality of the Nismo Catback? I plan to add Motordyne Test Pipes, Stillen Intakes, and Uprev. I know it has a high price tag, but does it perform/sound similar to other Aftermarket catbacks?

If no one sees any problems with this plan, I'll be rolling off the lot with a Base Sport with: Katzkin leather, Nismo Exhaust, and Nismo struts/springs/sways...Probably gonna be a 7AT.
1) On the street my Nismo suspension performs great although a little rough on the shitty roads in my area. At AutoX though the understeer is annoying. Currently have a set of Eibach sway bars waiting to be installed to hopefully remedy the understeer.

2) Don't bother with the Nismo CBE. It's way too quiet for a proper sports car. Instead get a nice Fast Intentions CBE.
Also just skip the test pipes and get yourself a set of Long Tube Headers.
