It nice to see there's other members from the Pittsburgh area. I just purchased a grey SLS last week. I got it used for $23,000. It only had 5,900 miles. Not a bad deal I think. I wanted an awd vehicle for the crappy winters we get. Everyone here has a Subaru or an SUV, and I wanted to be different. There's a bunch things I want to do to my new car. Can't wait to get started.

Welcome! Seems like a lot of people from Pittsburgh are joining.. good to see! I just bought my car and signed up here recently too. I'm trying a manual transmission "S" for the winter - hopefully it can handle our weather. I picked Kizashi to be different too!

What kind of things do you plan on modifying? Best of luck with the car!

Sounds like a good deal on a nice loaded Kizashi!
I agree that W PA is full of SUVs. I see plenty of them in the ditch during snowstorms..LOL :lol: :lol:

For me, audio is always first. I plan on a Pioneer AVIC-Z120BT in dash navigation system. I have 2 12" base model Infinity subs that I plan on putting in. I may try to get a custom box to fit the opening of where trunk meets the fold-down seats. The stock speakers are alright, but the stock amp has to go. The volume jump thing drives me crazy. I, also purchased metatrox's bumper blackout kit, but I believe it's too cold right now to put the vinyl on. As far as performance goes, I'm probably going to start out with RRM's SRI and strut bar.

Yeah I would prolly recommend at least 65F temp to put vinyl on.

I'll definitely be in on the clear lenses. I like the much cleaner look it gives the car.

Hi HolyGhost,

I am planning to buy a Kizashi. May be GTS trim. I am not sure which one to go for CVT/AWD or Manual.
Share your experience.
