I guess the only mod I've done to my '96 SE 5MT is getting a full sawblade alloy spare... Too bad it is a little too tall for the well.

yea like the OP i think the R34 headlights are one of the best overall things ive done to my car.

i also really really love my Pathfinder headunit. that thing is awesome. i will greatly miss it in my next car.



i gotta be honest, so far the "performance" mods ive done have been pretty dissapointing (y pipe and NWP spacer kit).
if i had to do it all over again, i would have only done cosmetic things and left the engine/exhaust stock.

Right now my favorite mod is mounting my studded Hakkapelitta 4's on a few weeks ago. Loud as hell on dry roads, but it meant I was able to drive as if the roads were dry yesterday when we got a foot of snow in 24 hours. I quite enjoyed watching everyone try and dig their cars out from infront of our apartment while my wife, son and I decorated the Christmas tree

Mine would have to be the WS Y-pipe with the Stillen SS B-pipe

Still is quiet but gives a good amount more power. And a year and 1/2 later the Stillen SS b-pipe still looks brand new.
