Does the HFC or Test Pipe fit on the Nismo? Still learning about all these performance parts.

Thx

Does anyone know the maximum horsepower and torque specs for the 7AT?

I'm sure there would be no problem with bolt ons, but what would a supercharger or twin turbos do to the automatic transmission?

Can you guys help?

Injen cold air intakes - 20hp is what they dynoed.
Exhaust - Maybe 5hp.

Anything else except NOS?

As long as you have a breaker bar, it is not too hard. For the bolts underneath the car, use one wrench and then daisy chain another wrench for more leverage:

It is kind of on topic with this thread; it gives you the most torque for your $$$.

Well the biggest problem with the AT is that there arent really any parts out to strenghten it while the MT has clutches and the whole **** to handle the high power output.

Default +20HP = noticeable acceleration diff?

I will just erase this cause in retrospect my question was simply retarded.
