the USDM MR IX is really not a MR, it's just a GSR(w/ Bilstein, alumi roof, BBS wheel, 6 speed) in Japan now. there is no more MR in JAPAN. don't know why they still come out with MR edition.

From what I found is... The soft stock ride and the stock brakes initial bite. I just need to correct the 2 issues and the car would be prefect. Well maybe not perfect, but close. Perfect were 320 - 340 bhp stock, AYC, and 300 lbs lighter. Now that would be perfect. I miss my 99 Maxima SE. Funny thing is I wanted to make in to an EVO. Now I have an EVO I miss my max.

Funny. I do like the the EVO VIII 6 stars wheels. I might pick up a set for snow tires.

swift lowering springs will firm up the ride a bit. stock brakes are terrific...just need to get accustomed to using more force on the pedal...or you can go with aftermarket pads. AYC? have you ever driven an evo with AYC? if not, how do you know it's better?

after driving a IX MR, you actually miss driving a numb FWD boat with terminal understeer?? it sounds like an evo may not be your cup of tea...
