What did you do to the G Sedan today?

I'm hoping the crank sensor wire is baffed because that's an easy fix.
A wide-band sensor might help for a better tune.

Yes I noticed a huge gain with the TB and Plenum spacer. A week after installing I got the car tuned because after the installation I began to run lean at WOT. I'm at 255whp & 238wtq. But I have every Bolt on except headers. I have a 04 so don't need the Mrev lower Plenum as it's the same. Just theirs is polished and ported a little.
My next move is Admin 3.5 Intake and porting both upper and lower Plenum and runners. Should jump up to about 275-280whp.

350Z struts to go with the G/Z spring combo.
Burnt Copper Plasti Dip'd my stock sport wheels.
20mm front spacers
Black lugs to go with the theme.
Badges were matched also
End result blacked out the chrome around the windows. Just need for the struts to break in to see how much lower I am now. When I installed the springs a year ago it was a nice drop thx to the sport pack. Now with the 350z struts should get a little lower. It was a long rainy weekend glad I have a large garage.

Took me all day Saturday to do. But this was because I was between things. Normally it should take about a 1 - 1 1/2hrs since dry time between coats is about 5 min.

Lots of things this last week. Had a maintenance day on Sat.
1. New rubber on the summer wheels, Potenza S04 235/50R17
2. New belts, a/c belt was badly cracked, but for 98k, not bad, cleaned and oiled air filter, glued the chrome ring back on the end of the air filter.. which fell off. Sanded and painted the metal bracket holding the pop charger shield. Had a lot of buildup on the batt terminals, cleaned it up. Engine bay cleaning.
3. off-topic... did various things to the rest of my fleet.

Got my G back from a second round with the tuner. He had to re-think the way he had the ECUMaster reading the crank sensor, and whatever he did corrected all the other issues. No more lag or thrown codes. Adding a wideband sensor probably helped a bit. I took a 100 mile route home, through a mix of small towns, open freeway, gradual inclines and steep mountain passes and it hummed along like a charm. Even beat on it a bit more than I usually would and it's fine. Feels like a new car.
Next on the list: New shocks and a RH front lower control arm (bad bushing on the current one), adjustable upper arms, and rear components, and an alignment. Have all the stuff except the shocks because I can't decide on what to get.
Cutting my custom three-gauge centre console panel (pics to follow, including the relocated hazard switch), and replacing the cheap "filler" boost and oil pressure gauges with some trick AEM ones to match the nice new fuel/air gauge.
Then I don't know, probably fix the rip in the drivers seat?

whipped-up the very basic CAD for my gauge cluster. The small hole is for the new hazard switch location. Gotta round those corners, too. This is going to go over the space right below the head unit piece, where the ashtray and hazard switch are. The sedan shift console has a bit more real estate than the coupe, so might as well put it to use. It's either put gauges there or go back to smoking.
Might end up looking stupid, but I have to put them somewhere and I don't want them in the A-pillar, blocking the stock instruments, or on the dashboard.
