Finally ordered a GSR over the weekend.

SSS
Navi
Leather and Sun
Aero package

Will be here 2nd half of May...can't wait!!!!

Now time to start planing at least some small upgrades...any suggestions??

And I know there are threads on this but I just wanted some personal opinions as new mods are always being released and stuff.

 

Grats on the order. Personally, i just bought a ww gsr and will be working on the appearance of the vehicle (wheels, coilovers, lips etc.) before touching anything under the hood. Hopefully giving time for the engine to settle in before voiding warranty. But hey, thats just me.

 

Congrats!! You got everything I want except for the navi. Thats over 40g too much for me

 

I'm in the same boat for sure, probably gonna get some Megan Racing coils and probably the Turbosmart Dualpot BOV to start...then get some Rota P45R in matte black with red lip. but the wheels might be next year after the winter

I figured if I am gonna drop this much money might as well get EVERYTHING I want at once.

 

Yea ill just get a base model then order some heated leather seats if I can find one for cheap lol

 

Congrats on the order! I ordered mine in mid-November and should be here likely the third week in March. Believe me - waiting in the hardest part.

I know my immediate list includes the following:
RA mudflaps
WeatherTech floor mats
Clearbra

Some items I would like before year's end:
Exhaust
Intake
Tune

 

Nice... Congratulations!

 

Congrats! How was the ordering process? Is your price locked in now or is that finalized when the car arrives?

I wish Mitsu would do something like BMW/Audi/Merc/Volvo and their European delivery programs, but Japanese delivery.

 

nice! congrats on the purchase! may seems like a long ways away, but it'll be worth the wait.

 

Nice! Congrats! I just got mine two days ago!! You will love it! I'll tell yeah.. Last two weeks will almost kill ya but sooooo worth it!

 

just did a basic quote with window sticker prices...which mean nothing obviously since the price will be talked down...put 500 down...fully refundable...will actually run all numbers when the car comes since financing changes month to month...and they already threw a grand off just for ordering

 

Why would you drop 40k on a car and get "everything you want", like you say, and then get cheap parts like Megan coils? The stock BOV is fine, just get an open element intake and you will be happy with the stock BOV.

You will be much happier if you save a little longer and buy quality parts.

 

See!! thats why I ask..thanks for the advice I'll keep it in mind I've heard good things about Megan coils are they that bad?

 

IMO to make a X look good, ditch the wing, drop it (NOT SLAMMED), wider sexy tires and probably a (dual?) exhaust? but then again, that's just me. I would spent tons of time going through the "Official WW X picture thread", and get some solid ideas

 

If I can do it all over again I would do the following

weather mats
Mudflaps(if desired) not my taste
Tints
Works Short Shifter and bushings
Shift knob (optional)
ETS Intake
Test Pipe
Tune(3 port installed)
simple parts and will go a long way
