I am not going to go to crazy, I love the car the way it is. Here is what is left:
GT30R(MAYBE), Cams cant decide on 272's or 264's, ACT clutch & flywheel, a Tune, lowering springs, rear upper strut bar, vortex generator, window visors, tires.
Then I am done with the car.
I plan on buying a X in a year after I buy that, I will buy a VIII and that will be my race car.

if money wasnt an issue: fully built trans/tc from shep, top of the line suspension from robispec, ridiculously expensive wheels, and maybe a 50 trim/20g set up. realistically, im just shooting for good, and extremely reliable numbers on pump, the stuff above would just be awesome to have.

Good thread idea. Now that I am right around 340whp my plans are to add some JDM bling and upgrade the suspension a bit and then go back to the engine in a year or so to keep things fun and interesting. Right now I am lowered on GF-210s and have the UK trunk badge, VII tails, and Perrin antenna on the car for looks. I am putting my JDM IX rear bumper on here this weekend finally. My plans are...
Winter '07-'08:
SBC Advan RGII, +29 offset w/ BFG KDW2 255/35/18s
JDP Engineering 1x1 carbon Do-Luck replica lip
Rexspeed 1x1 Kansai replica side spats
Summer '08:
Megan street coilovers
Winter '08:
JDM MR head and tail lights
JDP Engineering carbon brake ducts (Varis replica)
Summer '09:
sell my BR Deluxe, piping, and APS intake
buy a 20GLT
BR uicp
BR intake
BR Race front mount
SMC alky kit
injectors
another AMS custom tune
Might be forgetting some of the details but you get the idea. A quick and reliable DD with some JDM flava.

Great thread! Being totally new to the Japanese car scene, this gives me a lot of ideas. Has anybody followed the previous posters idea of modding to the level of the FQxxx?
Is that possible in the U.S. and on 92 octane

Is there a unit that will plug in to the AEM similar to the Cobb Accessport to allow me to switch maps without having to have a laptop hooked up in the car at all times?

Coilover brand for street setup?
Winter tires on stock rims and switch the stock tires to XXXXX rims (want to stick with 17s)?
This is the wish list.
