Hey guys (and gal). I am moving to Rome for our business, and am somewhat required to get an FX35. I wasnt really into SUVs or Infiniti for that matter, but since its once of our most popular cars to export, I need to get one to drive around clients (we are an export co). Pretty funny, as here in Italy if you drive an FX, its like you are driving a Bentley. Chics dig it..

Anyhow, I have come to like the car and will be buying one shortly to send to Italy as my daily driver. I hope to mod the hell out of it (American way..) before I send it while keeping it reliable. Hence my joining the forums!

Desired mods:
-Exhaust (not fond of stock) that sounds good, no drone, and not hollow.
-CAI
-Plennum spacer
-Anything to improve mileage... (gas is nearly $8/gallon here)
-Springs
-ICE - basic speaker replacement (necessary?) and singe 10/12" sub, stealth style.
-Possible wheel swap..

I am looking for an 05 to 07 black(or gray) on brick with Sport, Tech, and Touring, should anyone be interested in selling.

Anyone else on here from Europe?

-Chris

welcome, thers are some pretty big differences between the -05 FX the 06+ FX, if your budget allows for up to an 07 I would say you might want to look 06-07 really

wow $8 gallon, can only do half as much driving as you'd get here:biggrin:
 
Welcome to the Scene! always nice to see more international members.

pertaining the mods you want to do:

Nismo exhaust - if you are RWD than you will only need the g35 extension pipe and to extend the tips to clear the bumper. if you are AWD you need to modify the y-pipe to fit as well as extending the tips to clear the bumper.

CAI - stillen cold air system works great (stillen z-tube + stillen air box)

Spacer - motordyne, powerlab, etc. they are all pretty much the same, if you can find one for a great price go for it.

Springs - H&R or Eibach, either will do you good

I am here now, till the 24th. I leave permanently on June 2nd. I'll try and come by. Which track?
Click to expand...

shoot! the track meet is on the 26th... well, where in the OC are you? I go down to Dana Point on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. But mine's a FX45 so the sound's going to be different I think... Will's is a FX35 and also has the Nismo.
