idk man, the CVT seems to suppress the power of the car at some times, i think a highway run will be very close between the two, if i had an MT it would be a whole different sort of beast... though ive really been good with not speeding, so maybe if theres a track around here we can go to sometime haha...

i'd like to hear how the sub sounds on the stock system sometime, i wanna know if it would be worth it to do that kind of setup on my altima with the stock bose. though i would also have to get a subwoofer level conrtoller since my stock head unit doesnt have adjustments just for the subs.

Hey fellas!!

Frank what the hell?? You got a 3.5 altima now lol that's awesome, those things haul ass! Did you end up swapping the lease or someone buy it from you? I'd love to visit you guys, maybe in 2/3 weeks when Im not working. I'll probably just spend the night and party with you guys for 2 days.

The 2G lip kit is a pain in thr ASS to find!! and it's expensive. It's so small too lol I had it on my 2G and the insurance co wouldn't let me take it off after it was totalled

you saving those pennies for an exhaust yet Tyler? me and frank gotta tell your gf that's what you want for christmas!

Franklin has his dads 3.5 Altima. It's pretty hot I can't lie.

Shit I wish Mitzi could get me the exhaust but she doesn't make THAT much money

Alex check my Progress Thread. I put my sub back in

the lip kit makes the 2g a totally different looking car imo youll love the looks your cars gonna get with it....

and alex yeah what tyler said my lease miles are way high so i swapped rides with my dads altima. same year same options, just different color and fast :-) ... and for sure come up here man you can crash at my place its pretty chill and my roommate is cool as shit ... maybe it will get tyler to stop being a homo and working, hanging out with his gf all the time, and hang with the boys haha (i guess that would be more homo but so what)


and tyler dont worry ill just tell mitzi if she really loves you she'll buy it for you... italian guilt trips ftw!

Haha Frank don't hate! My fault I'm always so busy. Your timing sucks ass though. You always hit me up after I've eaten a meal.

I told Mitzi I want the exhaust. She laughed and said "okkkaayyyyyy" with a sarcastic tone.

$400 sounds a bit much and molding it on? Don't know about that. I mean I've see kits molded on and they look awesome! But this kit is very small, I can't see how they could mold it on? Where did you go in Charlotte?

I could probably help you find a place that will paint the kit cheaper. Let me know.

Oh yea and just the front lip molded on, it would look weird since the rest will be clipped on.

Even though she does want some Coach bag that's stupid expensive, she wouldn't buy me the exhaust if I got it for her. I really want the ATLP Base with J-pipe but it's too damn expensive as of right now. I need to get my wheels powdercoated first and then maybe I'll start saving up.

Beat-Freak...$400 for paint and installation sounds about right since the paint is metallic. Like Alex said, don't let him mold only the front lip on. Attach it like your are supposed to so everything flows.

Thanks guy... Yeah it would look a bit funky molded on like u said, plus the replica is fiberglass, So if it cracks i might have to replace the whole bumper which means more money , i went to a small body shop that jus started, but im checking out another shop tomorrow morning, Oh yeah like u said its a small dam piece so hopefully i get a deal tomorrow... Im jus hella impatient and excited bout the kit...More research is always good lol...

Nope. Van is serious business. For two years, Chrysler had a turbo option in its first gen minivans. Its utterly hilarious to drive one. You feel so....demonic.

Mine had been down for three years. Never had the time to get it to a shop, etc. The engine just needs to finish being rebuild, but will have a bigger turbo, injectors, intercooler and hopefully, stronger transmission too. Should be an interesting build

Once I get the Van done, I'll decide what I want to do with the TL-S. I'm at 81K right now and I still have to drive home....
