i would say step 1 is a midpipe hands down .. they run $500-800 and give you around 15hp and a totally different sound for the car.. its past the O2 sensors so not really any type of issue... its probably the most common simple and effective mod GTR owners do.. and a nice catback to be added after that if you want a differnet exhaust look..

next a COBB flash usually 40-70hp and on up from a canned to custom tune with some bolt ons like downpipes.. Cobb with exhaust parts make of the vast majority of modded GTRs on NAGTROC



as far as bored with the looks.. besides wheels and carbon trim addons there isnt alot to be done with the car with out getting really expensive really fast.. we have a lot of vendors who offer carbon replacement wings and lips... and a bunch of wheels to choose from


when the time comes aftermarket rotors and pads are a cheaper and better peforming option than OEM... the stillen AP jhooks or vaned combined with some carbotech pads are probably the most cost efficeint to performance ratio way to go

thats a brief overview of the most popular tuning route for these cars
