New GT Spec Braces - With Pics

Hey guys.

Just picked up some new goodies at Riverside Infiniti last week. I got the GT spec 2-point and 4-point front lower braces, as well as a set of black (graphite) floor mats to replace my factory light grey (stone) mats, so I don't have to wash them weekly in order to keep them looking clean.

Unfortuantely I was out of town in SLC over the weekend, so I haven't had a chance to install them, but should be installing them this weekend. I'll post some new pics and driving impressions once I've had a chance to install them.

Hehe... Maybe I could get them to sponsor me. LOL

I think I actually have every brace that is available for our cars (V36 chassis) so far... It's just from my experience a chassis can never be too stiff... suspension, yes, but the chassis, no. I'll let you all know how the car feels once I get these new braces installed. Now it's time to move on to brakes and wheels & tires... Then more motor!!

Deal, we can combine them all and then work out a time share program for driving the car. We would rack up the frequent flyer miles.

Works for me, Wes... It's just too bad we live on opposite ends of the country.

What would you like me to be the guinnea pig for now, San?

Hehe... Well, I'm over half way there, San... so, I guess I am your guy's guinnea pig.

Also, just picked up the new Tanabe Medalion exhaust and a set of Tanabe NF210 lower springs when I was out at Riverside Infiniti this afternoon.

Now I have lots of stuff to install this weekend... WooHoo!!

Did you and Csquared get a group buy thing going on cuz he's failing his midterms to install his Tanabes LOL (j/k about the failing but he is currently installing the exhaust)

Yeah, Rick at Riverside Infiniti's doing a group buy on the exhaust... He's got them in-stock already, so there wasn't any waiting.

I saw him post that he's taking a study break to install his exhaust... I hope he doesn't take too long to install it... otherwise your prediction of him failing his midterms may come true.

Dangit A, hurry up and install these. If I had them, I'd be putting them on in the dark as we speak

Hehe... Jeeze, San, you're even more impatient than me. LOL

I guess I don't eat enough carots, because I'm not very good at working in the dark... but I'll see if I can get a chance to install these on Friday afternoon sometime. Should only take a half hour or so to bolt them on once I get the car up on jackstands.
