Re: What is the ONE thing that bugs you about your Kizashi?

things that bug me....No manual tranny offered with AWD and needs to be bumped to 200hp stock. I miss my stick shift. Things I love...People stop me and tell me how gorgeous the car is all the time, and it's Euro-like driving feel.

Re: Exhaust question...

Hmm...seems like the pulley, chip, and intake make the most difference and the exhaust eliminates silencers and makes it sound more badass. I would love to do an exhaust, but I work in a BAD neighborhood in the Bronx, so I would rather not draw that kind of attention to the car...Thinkin' that I mig...

Re: Exhaust question...

According to the Manufacturer, they are commutative. (but that's the mfr talking) I don't really want to do an exhaust since its a non-turbo. I think it's gonna be a cat-forward deal...All I really want is to get up to 195-200 hp n/a. Hopefully I can do it without spending too much.

Exhaust question...

Okay so I want the car to have about 20-30 more hp and remain all motor. Claims I have seen say that RRM's intake/pulley/exhaust/ecu mods can come close to this. Now I come from turbos, where the less back pressure in the exhaust system, the better. Needless to say, I had full 3 inch turbo back pipi...

Re: Rally Armor mud flaps installed

Darn....thanks anyway...just not sure where the holes are because I know the factory ones have brackets that go behind the wheel well that secure them.

Re: Rally Armor mud flaps installed

How did you install these??? I have a set from my WRX and I need a pattern to put holes in them so that I can match them up to the wheel wells! I think they look great....I would love to put them on and then put some flat black Rota Slips on my Kizashi..... :twisted:

Hey guys!

Crossover because it was paid off and we got a good trade value....I will miss driving stick but am happy to have a car with a bit more pickup...

Re: CVT lowest Gear Ratio

I was wondering ab out this lag, because the car is fairly quick except for this one spot. So, the dealer can reflash the ECU under a TSB? So, I should take my car to them and tell them to fix the acceleration problem?? I had no idea that this was an actual issue. I thought it was just the way the c...

Re: Rear Seat Question

I got them back in - I was not pushing hard enough to pop them into place. They are fine and locked down tight now. The dealer must have undone them to clean everything when they were getting the car ready and detailed for us to pick up. I think it's actually a nice feature that they pop out easily ...
