Hi

6 cylinder or 4 cylinder Tezza ?

Welcome to the club mate!!!! Where to start, wow.... like you say such a choice... suppose its down to individual preference?

Did you get the Altezza SXE10 (4 cylinders) or the GXE10 (6cylinders).

the engine tuning for these two are totally different.

If you have the SXE10 then there are a lot of (expensive !) ECU upgrades available from companies like TRD, Tom's, C-One, ... that will significantly boost the power and torque at mid and high revs.

I personally would go for a drop first.
The most costeconomical way would be to go for lowering springs, such as the japSAI springs.
The will give a nice drop and still gives good comfort.

Then a nice lip spoiler and/or some eyelids. A nice set of rims, .... it all depends on what you want to spend and what is avail.

Please post some pics :lol:
