Good call on the doors, Im not vin diesel and the doors are a bit much. Are they resellable? Also I was looking at exhausts and cai I was thinking of going with HKS hi power and afe for intake? Are those good,bad, indifferent? Thanks again.

HKS is always good but I'd get the G3 Stillen intakes. As for the doors, it depends on how they were installed. If the hardware was welded you'd have to swap out the whole doors. If not then all you'd have to do is remove the hardware and replace anything removed for the install. You might be able to find a buyer for the lambo setup.

Contests! My new Z has a Stillen CBE from the previous owner and it's got a great, throaty noise from 1500-3000 and roars above that

I like the GReddy as well! Also look at the Fast intentions. Not a name you normally hear in other car circles but they are great exhausts.

Lambo doors...
If you like it, keep it. If not, take'em off. Hopefully the original owner gave you stock hinges with the car!

P.S get HKS Hi-Power exhaust.
