Nice dyno graph on the subie FXLR8. That thing makes power early and holds it pretty well. You graph is alot smoother than mine was. I know lots of sites to go look up stuff for Subies, Evos, even the 350Z, but no FX sites. How do I know what fits? I have seen all kinds of different stuff in sigs while looking around on here, different brands of intakes, exhaust components, underbody bracing, pullies, but no site to go and look around. And I really want to find some springs, this thing rides waay too high!
 
Welcome to the iS family storm! Very nice looking suby! As for places to to buy mods for the FX, I'm sorry to say there is not a one stop buy it all shop specific for the FX.

Your first place is here really. When people do mods, they generally post where they did buy stuff plus there are stickies with part numbers.
This is a good starting point for springs:
Infiniti FX Lowering Springs - InfinitiScene.com
H&R and Eibach are the two available ones. I think majority uses H&Rs because they're a little more comfortable I believe. I got mine and a friend's H&Rs from ebay. Just make sure you get the correct part.

Here's a good info thread on several facts. You can also find stuff on exhaust:
FX: Did You Know? (FX Facts) - InfinitiScene.com

Apart from the threads, there isn't much main vendor directly associated with the FX. Stillen (stillen.com) is one that has several parts but IMO it's a little expensive. If you want exhaust and don't mind getting some extensions done on it, the best places to find a used one are my350z.com and g35driver.com..

for bracing, this is the starting thread:
GT Spec Suspension Bracing - InfinitiScene.com

There were two group buys on the braces. They are willing to do one more on the whole stuff. Search for gtspec or "gt spec" and you'll see them right away.

As for the intake, Stillen, JWT Pop Charger and LMS are the three most common. There are lots of threads on these as well..

Wow, thanks EG3! I spent the last 45 minutes or so reading through those links. I will refer to these in the future, I am sure.
 
Welcome to the Scene!! Where's the pic of the FX?

Ha! I thought that you all had probably seen quite a few stock FX's before. The only thing done to the exterior so far is tinting the front windows to match the rear.
