New Canadian G35 owner

New to this Forum and thought I'd post a few pics of my G35

2008 G35XS sedan A/T
Invidia Q300 SS cat-back exhaust
Currently in the process of getting coilovers with custom upper arms and rear bars.

Thanks! I've had it for about 3 years now and absolutely love my G! Slowly been tweaking it, added the exhaust a month ago, added red lights in the grill, replaced license plate lights with custom red LED strips, relocated front plate with custom made bracket, added 10K lumen fog lights in the lower grill, wrapped the grill with black carbon and repainted the badge surround to match. I am in the process of getting coilovers and custom A-arms made from a local shop that specializes in G35/350Z chassis. I want to drop it 1-2" to give it a more aggressive stance and help with the handling. Then I'll fabricate my own front and rear strut bars to help in the corners.

Welcome to the site. Nice to see another Ontario kid hanging around. Is the shop you're talking about in the London area?

Thanks! Where abouts in Onterrible are you located?
The Shop that specializes in Z & G chassis parts is called FDF race shop and they are located in Trenton, Ontario. Check out the picture below of the custom upper control arms they make for the Z & G chassis.

They also make full Formula drift setups & have a steering angle kit called the Mega Mantis that increases the steering angle to 70 Degrees. Also their pricing is very very reasonable for the quality you get.

I'll be making a post soon about FDF for all the canadian G owners looking for quality suspension parts , or to turn your G into a drift missle

Their website is www.fdfraceshop.com
