Hello All,

I picked up a new 2004 winning blue 8. It is a great car to drive indeed. It shifts very smooth even better than my 2004 maxima that I traded in. I hope I can share some great stories and not bad ones hopefully about this car.

Thanks to all that helped me out.


Anyone using the K&N Typhoon intake? How well does it work?


Thanks again

nice...another winning blue :D welcome dude...

 

Thanks!!

Blue is my fav color and it looks very nice on this car.

 

Congrats! I don't know about the intake, but be careful some actually take some power away...

 

all intakes take away low end power

 

For really???? Dang...so you lose low end to gain a tiny bit high end???? Well, considering the 8's lack of low end...I guess I'll stay away from it.

 

Welcome. Now go to the DIY and have fun.

 

That is kind of what happens, but they are fun to have on there. It is a noticeable gain in power and sound. It is like taking some power and rearranging it. It isn't like a lot of low-end for a little high-end.
If you change your mind on the intake PM me or check here while it lasts.....http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=38634

After driving this car so far for only 100 miles, I have to keep reminding myself that this isn't a regular engine. For instance, letting it warm up to aviod the dreaded flooded engine and things like that.

This car really is unique and I really enjoy things that are unique. I drove my maxima for a year and a half before getting this, so there are some things I need to get used to. But typical growing pains for any new car.

So far the thing I have the most fun with is the navigation. That is friggin sweet. Anyone lucky enough to be able to afford such luxuries(I am really not one of them) I am sure agrees.

I find it hard not driving it

 

Could you explain this? I am not familar with after market intakes, but I can't see putting one on so I can feel the difference when I am going 80 MPH.

Thanks

 

congrats dude. i suppose you have an automatic?

 

NO NO

6 speed and the same color as your sdracer
