I ordered some clear corners and Im just waiting a little for tint. I have a ztube/popcharger from my previous car. The only thing I wasn't able to get off the sedan was my stillen sway bars because some of the bolts were stripped and i Kind of miss those.

Anyone know how the ride would be if I installed Eibach progressive springs that give a 1.1”/1” drop on G35 coupe with just the stock sport struts? Will there be a bounce or will it be fine until I decide to get tokico d-specs later on?

so you have 12k miles? You should also be expecting to replace the tires around 18-20k miles. My oem Michelins when bald in the rear at 18k miles.Last week I bought 4 new Falken 452's (stock sizes for 18"oem wheel). The new tires are much queiter, ride smoother and cost less. Dont go cheap on tires though. You get what you pay for.


Just dont go ricey, My old car was 1995 honda accord. I had Dc Sports header, Weapon R intake, Tanable gold Exhaust, front and rear top side strut bars, Enkei rims with 40's series tires, Mid wing from Wings West, Kenwood headunit. I got fed up with the oil leak after 150k miles so I sold the rice and bought this excellent 06 Coupe. Oh yea, If you invest in a intake and exhaust, you might want to get a racing catalytic converter. Since most exhausts are CAT-backs meaning the exhaust only goes from the cat back, so your still restricting the air with the oem cat even if you had a header and exhaust.

You can add all the stuff you want but, in most cases it just makes the car louder and draws attention. Some mods I would probably consider would be to get rims and coilovers/springs. If you want to go louder, add intake and exhaust.

Finally got some pics up on the first page. I added the Popcharger w/ztube to the car that I had previously in my sedan. I order clear corner lights that are coming next week and tint will be in a week or two. Any suggestions on tint %?
