When you say it sounds nice i'm looking for fairly close to stock, nothing obnoxious, etc. My truck sounds like a beast but we don't want that on the little Nissan haha, but we also don't want it to sound like a giant mosquito while accellerating.
Use the round body muffler (the 2nd link) for the resonator under the car, and use a polished round or oval body which ever you prefer for the rear muffler. Make sense?

So I don't get an actual resonator? Just two mufflers? And the rear one is all the way at the rear right and visible (hence the polished)? I just gotta get used to this, I have a massive 3" pipe into a loud flowmaster and then the pipe is cut off after the muffler and doesn't even exit the body on my truck haha

Well the oval bodys dont fit under b13's very well.
See the first muffler? thats the resonator and the exit muffler well you understand.
Also, the longer the resonator, the less loud and obnoxious the sound will be. Just make sure all the componets are the perforated type, no louvered cores!
Can you guys check out post #26 in this thread? A cheap CAI like that works fine on these engines? As for the headers, I think the ones I linked to were generic ones that I wouldn't trust but I don't know any good companies for Nissan stuff, I only know about Chevy parts haha.
Those EBAY parts work great! I have that exact intake and header, and cant complain at all. Many people here also have them, do a quick searh, these mods are widely discussed.
Well its not that I thought ebay itself had crap but for example there are the little cheap CAIs for around $40-50 and then there are some nicer ones for $100+. I just wanted to make sure that the cheap one was fine.
Okay, another question. I've seen a lot of Nissans (and other imports) with the bar running across the engine from strut to strut. What is the purpose of this bar? With normal every day driving does it make any difference? Expensive?

There called Strut tower bar(s) it helps reduce chassis flex under cornering. You will notice a difference with everyday driving.

You guys are teaching me more than you think lol
Well WAI (warm air intakes/short ram) ebay brand type are around 20-50 bucks
CAI are alot more money cause they are true cold air and place the filter in the fender/bumper area to take the colder air.
