Hey guys!

I'm a proud new owner of a 2003 G35 coupe. She has a 114k miles but has been garage kept all her life. This car is a blast to drive and with new mods it's getting even better! My boyfriend has installed new spark plugs, Z tube, muffler delete, painted purple calipers (to represent my school ,TCU colors), and fitted a Garmin GPS in the cubby. Future plans: to repaint the wheels (factory color), install a sub, amp and front door speakers.

Glad to be a part of the comunity!

Heres a snow pic- All stock

Welcome to the forum. +4 For the Caliper photos. I've debated painting mine red or blue this spring, but now have pretty much decided to just go with Black, as another poster pointed out it's usually a better idea not to draw extra attention to stock calipers.

Thanks for the Welcomes!
The snow pic was takin when I was visiting my parents in Atlanta a few weeks ago. But yes it does snow in parts of Texas.
The Exhaust sounds really good in my opinion. No rasp, very little droan and added a sexy growl to it. My boyfriend works on one of his friends 350z, they did the muffler delete and I liked it. Now his car has Longtube headers and its super loud!

Hope eveyone likes the calipers!
