GOt a kurookie bumper:

Wrapping outisde sucks:

Current fitment, spc camber arms coming in tommorow

Hi everyone!
I'm new to the G35/V35 platform...but today I paid my deposit and tomorrow I will be picking up my 2003 Black on black 6speed!
I never did this with my old cars, but I would like to post pictures/updates of each mod I do from start to finish. I'm coming from the Lexus scene, 2 GS's and a SC...My last car got flooded and I decided to move on. Wanted something with more power and of course has to be manual. Took forever to decide between coupe or sedan, but ultimately found a decent deal. This car will be slammed on coilover within a week
I also have a full airbag suspension i might decide to throw in, however I was deciding on staying static and throwing on a supercharger... decisions decisions.
Here are some pics of my old rides, which i miss dearly:
SC300




Silver Gs400

White GS400

welcome man !!! first thing is just because the sedan is bigger,means it still wont float :-P
looking forward into following your thread and see everything that goes along with it..
i personally like static better but i always have that thought about bagging it..
but again welcome man

Well I might keep the works and rebarrel them to something much more aggressive for the G, depends on cost. I ideally want a deep dish 5 spoke rim, but I don't wanna put the money into it.
Static vs Bags is a huge debate for me, been fighting it in my ehad for so long, I went back and forth on the SC haha. My SC was an original 5spd too, I was planning on getting a gte swap into it, but then the flood hit
O well I think i'm better off with the g35.
A question that I can't understand is why do I need the jdm climate control if I am siwtching to a double din HU? It seems like my buttons match the layout of the jdm climate controls.
EDIT: Nevermind, found the sticky regarding JDM climate control

Welcome congrats on the G!
Sorry to see that happen to your SC
, love those cars. My brother in law was in the Lexus scene with an SC also. But he like function better than form, since he got the 2JZ-GTE swap. Boy was that fun to drive. He just DDs a GS now.

going over 60mph....5th gear just spits right out!
I called the guys, they told me to come back monday morning. Every other gear works :/ 5th does catch when I'm going slow though...what the heck!
