15 years and 4 days since I bought this G35 Sport (2004). Now at 100,000 miles. Still love this car.

6 speed G35 sedan
Finally the Megan exhaust for the sedan is available. Not sure when exactly because I hadn't really been looking until lately. Showed up today, local muffler shop charged me $60 to swap it out. Definitely quieter at idle and at cruising speed than the Tanabe, even after modifying it with a different resonator and muffler. Little louder full throttle though. The twin tips look much better than the single 4" as well. Muffler is actually pretty large in diameter, the shop got it up as high as possible.

Maybe a touch of drone (or simply volume) around 2600-2700 but nothing like I had with the Tanabe and still less than I had even after changing the muffler and resonator.

Starting cleaning these up. Ended up getting a full set for 100 bucks but they needed some love. Probably finish em up this weekend and throw some rubber on them then paint. Would paint now but to risky with these crappy tire techs in my area

eyyyyy me too, found a beat up set of z wheels for $100, spent the last couple weekends fixing them up, not sure if I want to get tires for them or just resell. They didn't turn out perfect but for having no experience I'm happy with the results.


BEFORE

after - not sure how many coats on this one

Yes they are but they were cheap and they'll clear my akebonos so it'll have to do for the time being. Spacers might be an option/necessary lol

So just a bulb change? Output looks amazing!
I have LEDs on my fogs and love them, just hate blinding every one, I've always thought OEM output was shitty

I have the same problem, from what I've read it's the soldering on the back of the instrument cluster. For the time being I reset the trip odom and plan to top it off at ~300 miles.

That looks awesome! Care to share what color it is?

The silver I used was a Duplicolor BFM0236 Silver Charcoal Metallic (UPC 2691671416) - labeled as a Ford color.
