I was preparing to make a gag about not being able to tell the difference on my tiny desktop speakers, but hats off to you - it genuinely does sound better even through a youtube video played through tiny desktop speakers. I'm becoming increasingly convinced of the benefits, although I think i'd probably want something to go under the passenger seat. Boot space is at a premium for me. Great job though, looks super clean with that false floor.

Yes there are also good underseat-subwoofers, that's right.

I still have same space as before [except the bag], and even the bag could be "down" next to the subwoofer if I need some more. In the video, the sound sounds a bit distorted and strange, but that's not the case in real.

Wow, nice work.

What underseat subwoofers would you recommend?

I always liked that Pioneer and Eton stuff. But to be honest, I dont know which one would fit under the N's seats

Great job with the bonnet struts! I tried installing a generic hydraulic lifter but got stuck as the ball stud together with the hydraulic strut seems to stickup too much and as a result I could not close the bonnet.

I wish you all a happy new year (even if it is late) I hope you all had a merry christmas and came well and healthy to the new year.

I hope that there will soon be either more snow - that I can have some fun - or that it will be warm again - that I can have some fun and continue on my N

I just wanted to share some nice Winter pictures (also for the people who don't have Winter like @Stash-N )

Front lip is perfectly designed for auto-packing ice into your intercooler . Jealous...

These are great photos. If it were not for the salted roads and the cold I would like to be there.
Snow on the car does look cool pun intended.
Now at least I know what my car would look like in the snow if it ever does that here. Not likely..
Many thanks for posting these.

Yessss an aftermarket intercooler would not be necessary in winter. maybe something like a funnel to catch even more snow

 

[Mightymoo]

Nice pics.

I did not know the I30N could double up as a plow truck .

My new exhaust Tips.
I really like them. The build quality is awesome! I hope I can fit these beauties soon



Edit: Hopefully Saturday will be the day

 

[padigree]

Today was the day. I love it. Not to big (if you look twice. First moment I saw it I thought: "wtf, what I've done?! ") and much better quality. Sorry for the dirty car, thought about washing.. But rain and snow and Salt and....... naaah. Next week I'll make some snapshots with a cleaned car

Do you have some pics of the install?
You did cut the stock exhaust right?

No, have had nearly no time to do that. But it's really simple. You have to Lift your car, remove 2 exhaust screws and the 3 exhaust mounts, remove the whole thing and cut the old Tips behind the ending. So just slip the new ones on and push them to the right direction after mounting the exhaust again. But be careful, it's not everytime the same. There are some Tips for which you have to remove the old Tips and not cut the whole piece.

Love reading the updates to this, but can't help but get a tiny bit jealous of how nicely its turning out hahaha

 

[Varmint]

Wow, what a difference.

The brighter color makes them look realy big.

Any chance you have a pic directly from behind?
