Drag and street dont go well together. Usually whats awsome on the street is dissapointing on the strip.

Not to mention we all live in the land of defects now. My advise would be to build a streetable car, that looks stock, but blows away 97% of the competition.

The recipe is a very well trodden and proven one.

*HKS 2530's with HKS actuators

*HKS Split dump pipes

*Full 3inch (minimum) exhaust. dB requirements are different from state to state, but around 90dB is the limit, so a couple of mufflers or a silencer is advisable.

*Apexi Power Fc

*Boost controller (HKS, Blits Apexi etc)

*minimum 660cc injectors

*larger Bosch in-tank fuel pump

*Cam Gears (Os Giken, Tomei, JUN)

*Minimum twin plate clutch

*Either Twin Pod set-up or higher flow air filter. But I would recommend still using standar air box.

*Nismo or Z32 Air Flow Metres

*upgraded brake pads

You dont really need another intercooler. Standard GTR will flow ok. Dont really need cams either, but HKS step 1 are a direct bolt in option, so they are pretty good.

Thats what is a great street car, and with tuning and installation 15-20k is around the right figure (if you are buying brand new components)

This will net you around 320rwkw.

Any more and it internal time, bigger everything (turbo, injectors, clutch, gearbox etc) add another 20-30k (including labour, tuning etc)

I agree with everything except you definately need an intercooler min 100mm. Air flow meters are debateable, maybe a set of coils.

    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
    • To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.
