Made these endlinks with spherical bearings/heim joints to replace the crappy OEM ones that broke.

Nice looking end links! Where did you source the parts for them?

Nice to see another 6mt. Looks good! I tried the snow thing once this winter didn't work out though haha (I also had more like summer tires on though) Jealous of your bumper & hood too lol

Your snow images actually make me look forward to snow again which is hard to do. I love the G and what you are doing with it!! Just curious, do you even still have the bimmer?

I sold it to a friend. I don't have much time to track or autocross anymore.

But somehow that doesn't stop me from throwing money at my daily driver...

I just bought a Quaife LSD, installed it with a Nismo finned diff cover modified to fit my diff brace, and installed Energy polyurethane diff bushings.

I bought a set of Brembos... mostly just to be flashy since my 2 piston calipers stop and resist fade just as well... but am now selling them since I hit a pack of raccoons and my insurance company is giving me the run around. So I'd rather have the money to fix my car.

Yup. 10 or so raccoons gathered around something in the middle of the road in a somewhat remote area. There must have been some food somebody threw out the window or roadkill. I ran over at least 3 of them.

Before I raised it to fix roll center height


Turns out these were done, replaced with Energy... which also apparently doesn't quite fit the 03 sedan subframe...


Quaife LSD with Nismo finned diff and poly bushings. Subframe bushing was just filled with poly.


Ugly as sin but functional homemade diff brace that no longer works with my new finned cover.





No bumper no care.


Both just expensive Nissans

Car will not come with the Gramlights pictured, it will come with 19" Hyundai Genesis Coupe wheels with 2 new Continental DWS.
