Thats pretty cool. Im actually going to grab a Samsung Galaxy Mega and put it inside the nav screen. That way it can fold down and disappear. I want to keep this looking stock. I went all out on my last rig. Now I just want subtle things. Nothing flashy or anything to grab a potential thiefs attention.

just bought Z1 2 piece rotors for my Akebono brakes for $498!! Pretty excited to be buying parts again.

I advise anyone else with the Akebono kit to do the same.

Cool Today's G project

At 122,000 miles, replaced both front lower control arms; tie rod end links, front lower ball joints, sway bar bushings as well as links. Ordered all OE equipment and did all the install myself. Once I started rolling, it was over before I knew it. Finished the project off with new rear cooper tires and an all wheel alignment.

Had an issue with the brake light, vdc light, and slip lights coming on. Topped off the brake fluid level and problem solved. Sometimes it's just the simplest things. (I post this for those who are having similar issues)

The G is now cornering like a champ. Next is rear shocks and shock mounts. If I have time I'll likely replace the upper rear control arms as well.

Next year I'm planning on installing a dual exhaust "cat back" then perhaps a bit later investing in headers and high flow cats

I went on eBay and found one from a 2010 G37 Sedan and ordered it for $44. If this works, I am posting a DIY...

I also picked my car up from the stealership as they installed a new Front knuckle for my blown Ball Joint... Extended Warranty FTMFGDW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Had blown knuckle ball joints as well. Advance auto parts has the tool loaner program I used their ball joint press kit and replaced those ball joints myself. Saved tons and picked my own parts. Bet she handles better now?

Routine oil change...plenty of f-bombs directed at the under shroud. On the bright side, Bev only has 66.5k on the clock

Finished my POS bumper & exhaust, not sure how I feel about the exhaust so far, not loving it but definitely not hating it either.

So far don't mind it. I modified my TDX from the diff flanges and back. So I can remove the v clamps and go back anytime I want. That Q is my daily.

Nice Q50, this changes how I view them. Anymore pics. I plan on getting a sedan to chill with my G coupe in a few years. My choices are Maserati Quattroporte, Infiniti M56S, and now a Q50S.
