Very nice man, like the new rims. How you get that shifter to be so short, they ain't got short shifter kits for our cars yet, or do they?

NOICE!!! I just realize what your scheme is, police interceptor, very cool =)

looking good... like the wheels also.

What did you use for the STS?

but you are BRAVE in VA. Those lights will got you tossed in jail here in NoVA. They would get you got impersonating police. There have some guys in this area that were doing shady stuff and got in a ton of trouble.

They need to come up with a kit already, car is been out for more than 5 years now. I just don't like the long shifter we have now. Not to mention short shifter would be beneficial.

Amen!!! Lol I don't know how long the 6spd shifter is but the 5spd just looks weird. Specially when its in 1st, 3rd, and 5th gears.

To be honest I rednecked the hell out of it; I manufactured a custom plate to shorten the throws, then actually cut the stick, before grinding it smooth again.

And yeah the lights are very risky, I have two toggles both that have to be triggered to turn the lights on. So far I haven't had any issues with police, but I don't really speed or anything =\.

I'm glad you guys liked the rims, what would you think about them if I re-painted them black?

Would you guys like me to take a video of my flowmaster exhaust so you can hear what it sounds like?

If you go black will you do the whole rim or leave the lip alone? As for the exhaust, sure, put it up. We've love to hear it.

Cool man, how does the shifter boot stay in place? And I'd leave the wheels as is but if you decide to paint them black, I'd leave the lip as is.

And sure, let's hear the muffler.

I'm thinking leaving the lip as it is, and painting the rest of the rim "Super Black" which is supposed to be the color of my V.

Also the shifter boot is actually ziptied with a really tiny black zip tie, it doesn't sound like it would work but it hasn't given me any issues.

Does anyone have any ideas they'd like to contribute that might help make my V look better? unfortunately I can't lower it as I live in an area with a LOT of potholes and dips.

Exhaust Video coming later today

I was thinking of doing a magnaflow exhaust on my Versa, so I'd love to hear you exhaust.. On the subject as the strobes though, they are highly illegal, and I suggest you be very careful with where/how you display them. It carries jail time and a hefty fine. I know if you used them in my state, you would most definitely be excorted to the local pd in a set of matching bracelets. Just warning you, be careful

I lowered my V 1.5 in and haven't had any problems with potholes. I even have to go over 3 speed-bumps to get out of my apartment complex, and i never bottom out.

Don't know why, but "matching bracelets" made me laugh hard; never heard anyone say it like that. Unfortunately my V wasn't driven today, as I was busy working on my ramcharger, but i'll do my best to get the video in the morning again.

Thanks for the ideas guys :]

if your looking for a clip of a magnaflow muffler on the versa, this is mine but taken a long time ago and its a short clip oh! and this was before i removed the resonator. It sounds a lot deeper and even raised some brows when i rev'd it for my buddy who's a big car enthusiast/tuner. I'll post you another video later.
