Yummm Mr.2WillWin! I am totally digging the Wrangler! I am Wrangler fanatic but gave up my dream (for now anyway) and got the G. I'm happy with it, but will have a Wrangler one day...too. And the MR2 Was awesome! I love those!
Dan in STL!!!! OMG on the Camaro! If I ever come to STL can I see you on the 1/4?? WOW!!!!! I want a 68 Fastback for my toy. Deep appreciation for the 60's here.

So, I dont have pics on my Wk pc of my previous 3, but they were:

91 Eclipse (1st manual)
00 Eclipse (rediculous "sportronic auto"...stupid really)
95 Del Sol (manual also - same time as 00)
Right now:
05 G 6MT


96 EB Bronco


97 Stang GT (no pics here)
81 Mustang - track car work in progress

Most recently a 1992 cherokee. But my favorite previous car was my 1985 toyota cressida, what a car. The thing was from '85 and had power seats, heated mirrors, would break loose shifting into second on wet pavement, and even sang happy birthday to you! (literally).. Love my G but i really miss the cressy

I like it though. looks really clean. The RJ stuff is much better anyway. I sold mine in July '07 so I haven't really frequented the forums since then. This is like my 4th car forum. So I kind of just move on after I sell a car.

1974 AMC Gremlin (family car, learned to drive with it)
- Split Pea Green with orange plaid-like interior, yep it was fugly, but a decent 258ci straight 6

1980 Jeep CJ-5
- best 2nd car you can own, underpowered (4 cyl.), sucked in winter, sucked when it rained, sucked going up hills, fun when the sun was shining

1982 Accord Hatchback
- bombproof, only 1 repair (water pump) in 75K miles

1988 Audi 90
- crashed 24 hours after buying, totalled 9 months later, neither my fault

1987 Porsche 924S
- very fun, but underpowered 4 cyl, great exhaust note, my first and only RWD
- sold it to an old hippie who thought he could pick up chicks with it

Honda CRX
- don't remember year ('88 I think), trying to forget car, got stolen twice, cared the first time, celebrated the second time

1991 Maxima SE
- the one I should have kept, but at 191K miles needed lots of work
- got me hooked on Nissan, still see it driving around town

2007 Mazda CX-7 (lease)
- fun, quick, tight, horrendous gas mileage

2005 Infiniti G35x (bought late Nov 08)
- DG:G, Premium - a natural upgrade from the Max
- Z-Tube/K&N Filter arrive tomorrow, grounding kit on the way
- Plenum Spacer and Strut Bar within a month or so
- Love this car, will have for many years, wish they still made it in Emerald Mist

I drove my 2001 G20 touring for the past 7 years until she was murdered in the streets of Aurora last month.




I've always loved the G35, just never thought I would get in one this way. Always planned to keep my G20 when I got my G35... Sad to see her go...

^Do you go on g20.net?

My friend has a 99 touring. He wants to lower it thing spring on some springs and either 02 G20 sport wheels or some sentra spec V wheels.

He has a pop charger, tint, debadge (like yours) HIDs, LEDs, headunit, painted the calipers.

It is a fun little car to drive. Slow as ***** though.

Slow compared to the 35 for sure... just a different type of car. The G20 handles magnificiently...

They do handle very well for such a little car. my main issue with driving it, was it usually didnt have enough power to generate any kind of g forces going around a corner haha.

Were you dropped on anything? Whats a good set of springs to lower just like 1"-1.5"?

Oh yeah, those pics are on H&R's with KYB GR2's and Koni Bump Stops. It was a sweet set up... you'll see people say Tein or Eibach for the P11 but, the H&R's were really nice. I had Tein S Techs on it for a couple years, they lowered it nice, but were too squishy for me...

I didn't get a chance to ever tune the car, but a lot of guys boost them and get up to 250 / 300 whp ....
