Progress thread of my g35.

Well my car is down. I cracked a head gasket. Ran it a bit too hard without race gas at 13psi. I knew it was only a matter of time, but I didn't care I had a new motor on the way!!!

Anyway, this is the first step on the road to recovery (even though I really didn't need them) Rotora gave me a partial sponsorship and now i'm one in less than 10 who have these brakes.





its hard to tell how ridiculously huge these calipers are, here they are next to a coke can



I'll keep posting as I get more parts in, and start buttoning her back up. OS giken triple disk clutch coming in next week too! Yay!
