Been busy working on a few basic Upgrades for the Interior/Exterior on my G35X Sedan and thought I would share a few photos.

Current Mods

- GTSpec FSTB
- Black Betty's Grounding Kit
- JDM Battery Cover (still waiting for one that says Brake Fluid)
- 19" Konig Illusions w/ Hankook 245/40 Ventus Evo's
- Painted OEM Calipers and EBC Front Rotors w/Redstuff Pads.
- Full interior LED lighting from http://www.superbrightleds.com/

Future Mods:

- Stillen Gen2 Cat Back
- MD Plenum 5/16
- MREV2
- GTSpec Aluminum Under Panel (if/when it comes out AND works on sedan X)
- GTSpec lower bars front/back.
- ............not sure what else, maybe z-tube

 

This has made a huge difference in body flex. I used to have the most annoying creak when backing out of driveway and not it is gone with this upgrade.

This has also made a huge difference when it comes to bringing the A/T shifting to life. Before when I was under general acceleration and the care was getting ready to shift 2nd --> 3rd and I got on it, the A/T would seem to hesitate and now no more.

 

Exactly as listed, nothing special, but makes a huge difference in the look of engine bay. Just wish the old thread on making the covers with Brake Fluid would have pushed through. I would pay a premium to have the cover say Brake Fluid.

I picked this up from Concept Z in the already modified version. Extremely happy with the quality. http://www.conceptzperformance.com/C...9207.171.249.5

 

great start, now paint the engine cover and battery covers

 

you dont necessarily have to have the same wheel. You just need the whole tire+wheel diameter to be the same or 1-2% off.

doesnt matter how wide your rear wheel is.

yep, I use staggered coupe wheels (8" front, 8.5" rear) with 245/40/19 tires all around

 

Are you lowered at all? Any rubbing issues? Finally what brand of tires?

 

No, not lowered. If I do, I'll go with bc racing coilovers. I will also have to roll the fenders and buy camber kits. No rubbing. I have kumho ecsta lx platinum tires. They're all season touring tires.

 

I love my GT Spec Front Strut Bar, I have read all over that is mainly for looks and I disagree. I enjoy cornering hard and it has def improved that. Also I have been searching but I am still confused, what exactly does the grounding kit do for the AT. I have and AT and I hate how it shifts. Thanks

 

Personally I think it makes the shifting more instantaneous. I had a slight hesitation when shifting from second to third and I get on the gas as it shifts. This has been improved with the grounding kit.

Plus it looks cool!!

 

I was set on coupe 19's, but saw these and loved them. Ordered from local Discount Tire.

Did a thorough cleaning, good wax and some tire shine. I love em, glad I went with my gut on this one (at least I am glad haha). I want to drop about an inch, but it doesn't look as bad as presented in Photo #2.

EDIT: Oh yeah, forgot to note that I had to replace my front inner fender liners on both sides as I just couldn't handle the worn out look anymore. I was going to scrub and use back to black, but gave in and went the easy route. Fender area also looks brand new after a thorough scrubbing of the suspension components, brake lines, etc with a scotch brite scrubbing pad and some Simple Green.

 

Looks good! Keep up the good work!

 

Great start! Something that just sticks out to me is the orange side markers, some clear ones would make your silver car look really clean!(opinion of course)
