Making the G35 into an exotic
 

Hi guys, Im here to get some design inspiration (your design ideas) on what a G35 could look like if it were custom made to be an exotic looking car.

There are no rules.

For example here I stretched the donor and added the One-77 model car design on it.

Your concepts could influence a kit conversion already in the making.

Save your time, no one will buy a kit like that... lol

:)
not even an Essence kit? You'd have to stretch the front end, but wouldnt it be worth it?

No, because then we'd be posers.

That's like a civic putting on a ferrari kit. Balla? Nah. Gay? Yes.

So you'd let "society", which consistent of mostly fake, materialistic, grade 6 high school girl mentality, dictate your love in car art? weak.

Basically you'd pass up on driving an Essence replica kit because of what people think, calling you a poser... thats being weak minded in my world.

I don't know how society and underaged girls got into the equation, but what I'm saying is I'm not into making my car what it isn't.

What's next after the one77 kit? Slapping on an Aston Martin badge on the car? trololololo.

Nothing to do with what others think. I'd just rather drive an authentic G35, then a fake Essence. nomsayin nomsayin?

this threads got potential. time to link it in other threads for more opinions

I have never been a fan of body kits that turn one car into another. As others have said, it's just "poser" to do so. Even using a kit car body on another chassis is kinda douche bag. The only exceptions to that are 427AC Cobra and Shelby Daytona.




It's like wearing a fake Rolex....

Just imagine driving a One77 kitted G35. I don't see the point unless you're trying to trick people into thinking you have an Aston Martin.

But then people figure out and then it's sort of like this

Someone was an idiot before you. Don't be that guy.

it has begun.

Well not everyone is like you guys, you'd probably have to give up lots of time in your life, in this rat race none the less, to afford beautiful cars... where I will be the master of my destiny in what design I want.

Here is the build going on in a kit forum, I can pass along ideas, like the Essence and Emerge, and other concepts once a bunch have been accumulated.
He just updated the thread with new rear end sketches but I dont know if he has decided on a front end yet.

I want that ****ing badge like the pope wants little boys.
Right now and by the grace of GODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD DDDD

So you want to make the G35 exotic but you start with a G37? Stick to Hondas buddy, we already have a problem with the G getting oversized wheels and into the hands of hood dealers and high schoolers. we don't need ricer kits out there, let the integra boys retrofit our taillights if the want.

Thats a G37 in the kit thread? Im not the builder I just want it designed right.

Or just look around I've heard there are a few exotics on here you could hold a candle stick out for. So are even TT rank you may just enjoy the exotic G's if you snoop around a bit.
I'm sure one or two of them will make you say Me Gusta?


Ok ok I'm done now.

I'm going back the the OMG threads and getting my lotion and rowing going.

If I had the time to make/customize a car. I would not be trying to change one car into another...

I'd build a Superlite SLC.

Thats rather interesting. Obviously he's trying to make it look like a super car but what else is being done for it to rate that title. A basic twin turbo setup is not going to cut it and I don't believe the VQ35 should even be used. If that build can hold its own against the other super cars once completed then good job, but if this is being done just for looks then its gay as fvck...

biitches dont know about my upside down g35 tails

Hey I was in high school when I got the G. I went right away and installed the Kinetix v+, stillen ztube/airbox, sxexcx grounding kit and obx throttle body spacer. Not all high scoolers are bad!!!

Nope can't say I do.

I was bout to go to my highschool reunion and wait wtf?

Our Infinities will never be "Exotics!"
 

Why waste your time and $$ changing our cars into something it isn't? Body kits are one thing, remaking our cars is a whole worthless project! What's it going to be worth when you're finished, less than what you started with....Gary

You are one of the few.

This is almost as good as the Fiero/Lambo replicas you see floating around.

Cool concept, but...why?

Those super lite cars are crazy! 2000lbs with 600hp thats friggen rediculous! I agree with the previous post screw messing with the G trying to make a super car for 40-60k you get one of those superlites and destroy everything!

Props for being differenf but it might have been a better decision to buy a tube chasis from a reputable shop and then customize it instead of possibly destroying the balance/structure of the G.

smh

ARASHI... I couldn't agree with you more! We members of this forum do tend to think like 6th grade girls and probably will never own a beautiful exotic car that we've hand built from the ground up. Over the years there have been people like you who have followed their dreams and built their own exotics and no one would call them posers.

Lord, I remember those, they were everywhere!

Arash are you ****ing serious dude ? come on buddy, come back to reality please


guys you don't know this dude the OP, but he's a local legend everyone here in Vancouver knows him as a whackjob for his constant ideas of dreaming up **** like this.... it's a long story, but to make it short here is his main project... a ****ing paper mache 300zx kit to make it look like an exotic, that alone says enough...

dude literally tried convincing us on a local thread paper mache would work

Personally, I think the G35 looks just FINE the way it is.

I get compliments from people quite often. I don't think this car needs to be messed with.

I don't know if a G35 is a good donor car for this type of project, usually you want to start with a light car, but I've never done one of these projects, so what do I know. I'm not going to hate on people that do this because this can be a great hobby for someone.
The guy on that other website has a lot of time on his hands to chop up a G35 like that without even knowing what he wants to end up with!
Got a question for Arashi, what software are you using to do those designs? It doesn't look like that software does a good job of rendering, the designs look all chopped up, almost like paper mache designs! That guy on the other website actually did a pretty good job with that rear end design he threw up there.
If you can influence that builder, then try to go with something more modern, with some nice curves, instead of something that looks squarish and outdated, that's my suggestion.

ROFLOLOLOL @ the paper mache car.

that has got to be one of the best posts on driver this month.

paper mache. who knew???

^ Light-weight, easy to mold.

But disintegrates at speeds over 25MPH.

For automotive purposes, let's call that disintegration....active weight reduction...

Lol!! AWR psh what you know about ACTIVE WEIGHT REDUCTION! You see, I like my car to weigh more at the starting line of the 1/4 for a better launch, however it simultaniously loses weight through the race to help with better top end speed! Lmfao at paper mâché!

i honestly thought it could not get any worse than cardboard kits.

Attachment 218387

But paper mache definitely takes the mother ****ing cake.

I wouldn't do it but it does not look bad with the body lines. Just being honest.

This is what my Zed could look like.

Good for you, but it looks like crap... and you wouldnt want to change its design because that would be posing.


This Ferrari came with 150hp, you would call this gay as ****? or is there a design timeline in your philosophy?
http://www.ferraris-online.com/cars/...es/P003Web.jpg


The point is your cars have generic designing compared to a good looking kit car, like a Murcielago.
was for sale for $17k


That would make for 3-4 times the cost.

Interesting car kit you chose there, Im betting something like that has more poon potential, with breaking the ice and picking up women, then your common Nissan, ie g35.

What, it didnt work? I did this years back but put it on hold to make a CNC and take the kit to another level.

In my last post I made some suggestions, but I guess he has a set design and method of making the body so from here on I'll be mostly spectating.

SRSLY?!?

:ban:

I'm not going to give him a hard time with the paper mache thing, he could have just been using that to make the shape for some parts. If it held up long enough for him to lay the fiberglass, then hey, he would have gotten his parts done. I've seen people use aluminum foil and cardboard to make some parts, some just use tape. It's not like he was just going to drive around in a paper mache car, at least I hope not!! :icon38:

this is awesome thanks for providing me some enterainment at work ill watch the youtube videos at home so i can get a good laugh

Here's my 2 cents

All show and no go

Of course there's a timeline, otherwise the G35 can be considered a supercar if compared to a Model-T.....

Oh, and I'm fairly certain that Ferrari can still outperform a G35.
