newb here....

Yo wsup people, new guy here from Hawaii. Been looking into this VIP style for some time now and damn I love it. Well, I dont have a true VIP car and I really wanted to get a G35 but decided to pimp up a car that not to many people has yet. So I got me an 08 Altima Coupe since its the closest to a g35. Now Im tryin to be the first to be with a VIP "style" Altima Coupe. Already got some things planned for this car but I need your guys help/opinions. Ill be doing some research too when I have time. Ill be posting here a lot since I cant post in too many places. :yahoo_101::yahoo_101::yahoo_101:

what you plan for the coupe? Suspension wise, and wheels?

man... i been looking all over nissan forums and the only company that has any suspension parts for the coupe is H&R and Eibach but those are only springs with a drop of only an inch or inch and a half. But I wanted to go with coilovers or airbags or both. Read a little and found out that they got universal airbags so Im gonna try look more into that. As for the wheels, I was planning on going with some 19x9 +25 Work Varianza T1s in Silver Polish or Gold Meister S1. Hope those will fit. Also been talkin to a shop about custom fitting a g35 lip kit onto my altima coupe. After that, Im gonna work on the interior and no Im not gonna put them curtains in there. =)

what do you guys think? Should I go for it? C'mon gimme some motivation...:dance::dance::dance:

you should get the wheels on the left in the backround for a more "vip" feel. there are 2 of them right on top of each other.  the work wheels are nice, but have more of a sporty feel than elegant and sophosticated like most vip cars want.

if you're going to drop an altima coupe this early after production you're going to be limited to a universal bag kit. Which means you're either doing a lot of hands on cutting and welding, or you're going to pay an ass load to have it done.

As for wheels you're already talking about a 2-door. So I would keep them strickly vip wheels. Work's like those are nice. But for a VIP styled project 2-door you're going to need to compensate for it not being a large saloon.

Wow....after thinkin about it, it will cost me an arm and a leg to get a universal airbag installed and damn pockets arent deep nuff. What do you guys think, should I just go with the regular H&R springs which gives me a 1.5" drop? Or that will  take me away from the whole VIP style? Well if the Work Meister S1's looks a little too sporty, what about the Work Varianza T1s?

varianza's are 100% beautiful!

vip style a coupe????vip and coupe dont even go together.

most likely more of an autolux classification then anything. Still a style I enjoy [U]seeing.

[/U]only problem I see with this altima coupe is parts selection.... gonna be tough to do just about anything with a brand new model. Otherwise I'd tell ya a thick B&N sports kit and some varianza would be quite a good mix. Though thats only my personal opinion...

Agreed.
