Hello!! new member from austin texas! 2005 G35 coupe 6mt completely stock for the time being except for debadging and aftermarket spoiler

planned mods include (but are not limited to):

black logo-less grille
aftermarket front lip
Z tube
motordyne mrev 2 + 5/16 spacer
y-pipe upgrade and (maybe) test pipes (i like the stock muffler purr)
re-do window tint
coilovers
short shifter with nismo ****
volk TE-37

 

At least you got one of the best colors for the G.!!! Don't get test pipes with that exhaust set up... Sounds like ****.. Better off with HFCs with that set up. I had a new y-pipe with HFCs and it sounded ok. Then swapped them out for test pipes and it wasn't good... Then I got my HKS exhaust... Welcome to g35driver...

 

how do you like the HKS? i like the stock sound but i just wish it was a little deeper and maybe a tiny bit louder.

 

Well I like it a lot actually, still have my test pipes on too. It's a little loud when I get past 3k-4k rpms but been fixin to buy some ART pipes for the perfect tone.. Or put my HFCs back on.. Yeah your best bet would be to get a y-pipe with some HFCs. I had Berk HFCs with that set up and it was a little louder, not by much though...

 

Welcome to the forum nervseele. Very clean looking coupe, great and rare color as Tyke mentioned. Like your plans and look forward to more pics. And I'm digging the gold Rays I saw in another thread.

 

nice! manual is hard to find in socal imo
