1.) It's a daily driver... don't waste money customizing it.

2.) Lexol leather cleaner and conditioner... brown bottle for one and orange bottle for the other.

3.) Body shops have a rubber "eraser" wheel for pinstripes.... if they're tape, then peel them off, if they're painted I'd take it to a body shop.

 

DEFINITELY!

need any work done, let me know.

worked as a tech at Nissan for 2 years.

 

Tinted/blacked out tail lights look like crap. Don't do it.

On the leather care recommendations, what color is the leather? Also, is it grainy or smooth?

 

If you run it hard change the thermostat in the head to the same temp as the block... I had a sentra and had to do that. Also get some headers and a high flow cat for it, I think the cat issues went up to 05 at least, cause my sentra always got comments on "have you changed the cat yet, is it clogged?"

also auto or manual? manual and the 2.5 has some pep, if not just leave it stock and cruise with it.

 

I bought an 05 3.5SE the other week and i love it.

 

Good choice. I like the 02-04 model better and headers wont throw a check engine light on 02-04
