Upgrades so far -

NISMO Cat back exhaust
NISMO wheels
STILEN SC
STILLEN SETRAB Oil Cooler Kit - Race (This represents about $700 of the funds invested in the cost and install of the SC kit as it was highly recommended by Stillen due to well known overheating problems in the 370.
No new clutch.

Keep in mind the SC comes with its own CAI so if you go with the SC - your current CAI will likely end up in the used marketplace.

Just a thought re: the NISMO exhaust. It sounds great and looks good, but for the cost if I did it again I would go with the FI exhaust with the 18" resonators - IMO - looks better and sounds better.

Yea, I have the FI exhaust with HFCs and 12" resonators. CIA and Intake plenum will hit the used market. I also have to replace the clutch and CSC as well. Your running AT?
