Just wanted to stop in and say whats up to everyone here at G35Driver and tell my story. So its been a week now since I drove to VA (from PA) to pick up my 2004 white G coupe 6MT. Ive wanted one for years but have had to put it off cuz of having kids. Paid off my "family" car a year ago so I was finally able to get her. Spent countless hours online searching for the right one but paid off in the end. My G only has 24,507 miles on it and its bone stock all but suspension and Z-tube. The suspension that was installed on the car is tokico hp series shocks, Tein H-tech springs, and SPC front and rear camber kit.I would have rather had her all bone stock but I figured its just suspension and at least its name brand. I told myself over and over again that I wasnt going to put any money into it just yet......didnt work out so well lol. I did some looking around on this site and decided to order a K&N drop in, 06-07 rear half air box, and a MD 5/16 copper iso thermal plenum spacer. I think I made the right choice for the intake to start off with that is? I also ordered the JDM RHD battery cover to match the other side since it is somewhat of an eye sore. Any feedback on my choice, good or bad, is welcome. Other than that I enjoy finally being a proud owner of a G35 and part of the G35Driver family.

 

Congratulations & Welcome to Driver! Low mileage, IP 6MT coupe you made a "Great" buy and worth the drive. Perfect choice on the mods, you'll really appreciate the results once installed....

Thanks Gary. I really cant wait till they arrive so I can start wrenching on her. I love working on any car I've ever owned and really looking forward to starting on my new girl..lol.

 

Welcome to the g community! You got a great deal on your g

 

happy modding!

 

Welcome and congrats! Beautiful G and sounds like a smashing deal . I'm diggin your choice of mods and the story of takin care of your responsibilities before finding your reward. Kudos and I cant wait to see where the mod trail takes ya!

 

Thanks goes out to everybody for the warm welcome. Looking forward to being a member of this great community.

 

welcome to the forum...thats a clean G i always wanted a IP but i love my OB haha...stay away from rice and keep it clean lol happy modding

 

Thanks. I was looking at OB also but couldnt pass down the deal I found on this one. I prolly wont do anything to the body...maybe a few things such as eye lids, black or CF rear diffuser, and if I do decide to go FI, then I might get a different front bumper for more air flow to the intercooler but nothing to wild from the stock look.
