Lolz I don't know where QE park is...hahaha

RWD? I was thinking of G37 too or the 1 series. Try the Rx-8 or Rx-7

I need mods for my car. It's not easy finding parts here as I've noticed *le sigh* But I'm more of a fan of a sleeper. So basically "go but no show". Not a huge fan of "all show no go" hahaha

There isn't a whole lot of actual performance parts for the 3G... and the parts that are available, are alot more expensive.

if you want mods, best place to look for them is www.heeltoeauto.com

look there, then find someone local to source it out

Lolz it's Yushimi. Hahaha, elkayem told me to sc too LOLZ
Problem with sleeper mods, which I just noticed, that I need to change my exhaust. Yet doing that, I need to find one that's not loud hahaha. I wanted to keep a stock exhaust but I don't think that's a good idea with I'm doing other mods. Won't the exhaust hold back in performance? :S

exhaust doesnt realli make a big difference on our cars in hp and the stock oem exhaust is already realli free flowing but if you want to keep a sleeper look get the atlp base the muffler tips look kinda like the stock ones
