Looks really good on the front bank.
Will post the rear bank later.
I was thinking. Its been about 3 years since I really drove my car actively. Maybe I'm expecting too much out of it after all the hard work huh? It just does not seem to have the off the line pickup it used to. I feel fairly confident my mom's maxima could beat it in a race and I don't like knowing that. I just looked it up. The 2001 Maxima puts out 227hp. My NA 3000GT is supposed to be 220hp so as far as I'm concerned they should feel nearly the same. I guess its our slow ATX's that I'm noticing cause she idles and revs wonderful now. Maybe the seafoaming will yield me a noticeable difference and if not.... time for some MODS. lol - Also need to make sure the brakes aren't dragging after I replace the prop valve and then I'll be happy about what I think the acceleration should be.

Do the exhaust......all of it, starting with a test pipe, then a custom downpipe/F-pipe. You'll notice a big difference, also, go single shot...if you can live with a single out of a dual bumper...or know how to do body work.
The exhaust will give you some quick pick-me-up that you'll enjoy.
