FGC Members... I need your help...

OK, most of you have been following the threads in the members only forum and you've seen the pics. My LR G coupe is totaled and I'll be getting a new G35 in the near future.

I spoke with the insurance adjustor at GEICO and he told me to "come get my mods" after tomorrow (Friday). I will be needing some help getting the stuff off of my car and will need volunteers with tools.

What I plan on removing:
Vortech (as much as possible that isn't damaged)
autosport wiring harness
split second black box
h/f cats
y-pipe
plenum
cusco a-arms
SPC rear Camber arms and toe bolts
crawford billet oil cap
1 step colder plugs (maybe)
Project Mu rotors
Hawk brake pads
rims/tires
gauge pod
defi boost gauge
aem wideband
kp tech shift light
kp tech sunroof module
kp tech VDC module
kp tech window module
JDM pedals
JDM battery cover
diamond audio door speakers and tweeters
LLC
Amp
external capacitor and zero gauge wiring

What I might be forced to leave behind:
crawford headers
JWT clutch and flywheel (~3000 miles)
TEIN H-Tech springs
Brembo calipers

If anyone wants my LR custom painted side mirror supports stop by and swap them out for your OEM's. They're only held on with a few bolts and a few wires that slip right on.

I despirately want to pull off the brembos. I received permission from the insurance adjustor to remove these if I replace them with 'genuine Infiniti parts'. I have SFLG35's old OEM non-brembo rotors, pads and calipers to put on but I'll need a 2003 - 2005 set of 4 spindels that hold the calipers along with someone with the 'right' tools to swap out the brembo spindle with the non-brembo spindle.

I'd be willing to pay a little money for help with the a-arms and spindel removal/reinstall as I don't have the necessary tools (but don't forget I'm taking AT LEAST a $5,000 bath on losing many of the above mods) and money is a little tight right now as I'll be floating yet another car payment, deductible, rental car...

I'll have a for sure removal date announced soon but right now it's looking like Tuesday, December 6th is the first day I'll hit the car. I'll post a FIRM date tomorrow after I speak with the adjustor.

Your help would be greatly appreciated... I'm calling in any and all favors.

If you just need the spindel, can you buy them from Lokey and then swap. I helped Dan swap his whole brake setup and now having gone through it, it should only take a few hours. We wont have to bleed them or anything. Weeeeeeeee. And maybe the impact of the crash helped loosen those f'in rotors.

Todd, if I do not work...I am all yours. Just remember, I am an idiot when it comes to tools, but I figure an extra set of hands may help to hand you some tools or order some pizza
