Today marks the 1 year birthday of me owning my G. She is really 4 but the first 3 years were not spent with me. I haven't done a whole lot since it is my daily driver but I thought I would share esp since I have not posted pics in a long time. Enjoy.

This is the day I picked her up. Aug 13, 2008. She had 49k miles on her at the time.






First mod was tint, which was done on day #2.


Then came the Z tube


Then 350Z springs


For the next few months I didn't do anything else except enjoy her, esp in the snow.





Once we broke out of the snow and ice the real fun began.


Things kind of died down b.c the toy car was fixed and I had back surgery in March. The past week it has started again. I have finally put on my coupe wheels, painted the grill and picked up a set of clear side markers. I plan on doing a few other things but not sure yet.





Finally from today. Now she is rocking 65,300 miles








CN: After a year she went from this. Not a huge change but enough to maker her mine.


To this

 

Looks clean.

Now pics of the subbys

 

Damn girl, she is sexy!!! I'm liking the coupe 18's on a sedan more and more. Great job!!

What tires and size are you running?

 

very nice Amy!
coupe 18's look really good on the sedan

hope you will join the OGC at HIN

 

Thanks, I have had them forever but just put them on last week and I love them. I am running Dunlop SP Sport 600's in 245/40/18's b.c I got a killer deal on them, like all 4 for the price of 1

Thanks Brian. I am hoping to join everyone at HIN but I don't think my car is really something that belongs there, maybe the RS but not the G. lol

 

very nice looking car. Are you still planning on keeping it or getting that FX ?

The simple things makes this car pop.

 

Get her something nice for her bday

 

lol it doesnt matter if your G is not modded to HIN standards haha,
im still gonna show my stock G at HIN

damn your making me want to start a timeline of my 2 years with my G35 haha

 

We are going to keep the G, the FX would have been a replacement for our Forester XT.

I did but it was a couple days early. I am thinking about getting a roof overlay to make things pop just a bit more so that might be another late b-day gift for her.


Well then I will have to see if my husband can take the day off. I have a timeline for my subie too but it is a lot more complex then this one.

 

Looks good, Amy! Love it. Your G looks really good. lol

I want to start a time line too, but i have had my car for a year and about 6 months now. . And i have gone from 32k to 52k hahaha.

Given, i did drive her across the fricken country. lol

 

love the rolin shot!

 

looks good man. happy bday G

 

Thanks! It looks pretty stock but to me the little things make it different although I'm not sure how much other people really notice.

You can make a time line too, it will probably have a lot more stuff then I have. We have taken the G up to Michigan 2x and to Chicago but the longest trip it has been on was about 3000 miles. We went to Florida but went down the east coast and then back up through Al and TN on the way home. When we got back from that long trip my husband decided that he liked the G better then his car and started looking for a FX35 We still may get one in the future but not sure when yet.

Thanks. It didn't turn out as well as I had hoped but we are going to try it again this weekend I think. My husband was driving our RSTi to take the pics of the G and the suspension is really stiff so even on a very flat road it is bumpy. It wasn't really the best idea for taking rolling shots but I did get some really good ones of the RSTi from the G

Thanks.

 

Nice timeline and documenation! I like how you went to the same spot and took the same angle picture. Really good comparision.

The fitment on the cpe 18's looks good!

My 1 yr is coming up. Started with 63K and bout to turn 85K. 22k in less than a yr YIKES...

 

Thank you. There are some parts I skipped but nothing changed so no reason to post the pics really.

I have only put 17k on the G this year which isn't very much for us. On the other hand we have put around 30k miles on my husbands car in 1.5 years. We also have put around 5k on the weekend car in the past 1.5 years but it was not on the road for 10 out of the 18 months.
