My car from the day I purchased until now.

Here is a timeline of my car from the day I purchased it until now!

February 1, 2009.
The day I took delivery!

A picture of the day after I took delivery:
Stage: bone-stock

Pre-meet picture / The starting of modifications!
Stage 1a: z-tube, k&n drop-in, led exterior swaps, 6k lows, 7k 55watt fogs, jdm clear corners with bump, matte black rear, rear tint, debadged "g35", painted calipers oem K23, rev-up airbox, 5/16 spacer.

Intermission - April 30, 2009.
Sad day for Marty! (yes my car is named, Marty)
Got in a car accident, got 6k in damages repaired by Gerber Autobody (I highly recommend!). Thankfully my fiancee and I were safe and not harmed in the accident. Infinitis are very safe cars!
[do not want to post pics, makes me sad! ]

Intermission AGAIN!? - May 28, 2009.
Sad day for Marty again! Some punk smashed my passenger side window and stole my Valentine One radar as well as my iPod.. Luckily for house surveillance, hopefully it will aide with the local police into catching the thief(ves).

May 30, 2009.
Stage 1b (including the previous mods listed above): oem z spring drop, clear bra'd front bumper/mirrors/fenders/headlights, oem ipod hookup, trunk lip spoiler, nismo catback, pearl white cathode trunk mod, front/rear splash guards.

__________________________________________________ _

June 10, 2009.
Phase 1 complete (including the previous mods listed above): Ionic eyelids, 19" staggered rare/discontinued Ro_Ja r2-7's (no spacers, just aggressive offsets!)

Future plans? if I stay n/a, then just resonated test pipes, and tune, if not then I will go vortech at 8psi.
I've dumped a lotof money since I'ved owned this coupe but it's been real fun and I'm sure it will continue, it's time for a little break though!


I know it's not much but I don't think for 4ish months of ownership it's not too shabby!

Hope you've all enjoyed it as much as I have!

Many thanks to ChicagoZ, ChiiRacingCulture, G35Driver, One6, IllGarage, SP, ProFunction, GRD, and many many individuals here and elsewhere that gave me many insights, opinions, and much of their patience in answering my persistent questions and whatnot. Thank you all very very much! More to come in due time!

Thank you for looking!


PS: Thank you very VERY much to Ginash (synth19) for helping me with acquiring my wheels since day one when it all began. Being very helpful and even letting me ship the wheels to his house (security purposes) and everything. I truly appreciate it Ginash, I couldn't have done it without you.

The spoiler is a custom lip spoiler that I got off spoilerdepot. prepainted and everything was shipped to my house I believe for around 215 grand total.

I like it since I didn't want to utilize an oem wing (nothing wrong with oem at all just I wanted a different style) and I did not want a deck-lid wing.
The wing I have on now is exactly the type I was looking for

thanks guys! It really means a lot..

I love a non-spoiler look, but that thing really does look great on it, better than stock for sure

Also, any close ups of your wheels?
