Hello Everyone,
Working my way through the forums and wanted to take a moment and introduce myself.
To avoid writing a book I will try and keep this as short as possible. I am not new to cars and I am creeping up there in age. In the past I have own a 1999 Saturn SL base line that I completely built from the engine out and developing and making my own turbo kit and tuning on a MegaSquirt. However, after years of dumping money into that car and tired of front wheel drive I dove into the world of DMS's. I currently own a 1990 Eclipse GSX that I am been slowly restoring and modifying and tuning etc... Currently that project is pending some parts to complete it and to re-tune it and will be shooting in the range of 500awhp.
However, coming from the Saturn background I also had a 1997 Saturn SL2 as the daily driver. However, as the kids have gotten bigger as well as I fatter my wife and the family as well as I have out grown the little Saturn. Just as of 04/29/2014 I traded in the little Saturn and picked up a 2006 Infiniti G35X. I will admit I love the G and driving it is like a dream with all the features it has to offer it's like a dream but, I live it out every day so far when waking up to see it in the drive way waiting for me to get in and drive.
In the world of modifications... I am not positive there will be a lot being done to the G. However, simple tasteful mods that wont diminish the reliability of the car as it stands. I plan to tint the windows, Trunk lip spoiler and the Sport series wheels. I am sure there will be other subtle changes but, the plan is to keep it clean and simple with out being over done.
Thanks,
Jason

Yeah just to old. I don't want or need the extra attention by overly modifying my cars. However, for those who knows certain cars will notice something is changed but can't put a finger on it are the type of mods I like to do.
I have done the same thing on my 1990 Eclipse GSX. Other than wheels, exhaust and front mount intercooler I have kept the exterior and interior appearance as stock as possible with only the necessary addition of gauges to monitor the required items in the car to keep it safe. Otherwise simple and clean is the name of the game.

Hello fellow St. Louisan 
Welcome to the fam. Let's get a meet going soon this summer 
As for mods go with tint, drop, wheels and the kurookie sedan front bumper. I'm imagining it now... Sooooo sexy
