hey everybody, i'm a new G37 owner in richmond and was told i should join G35Driver as well for this thread! maybe i'll run into some of you sometime soon! (hopefully not literally)

any advice you guys have for me as G owners in richmond/VA in general?

 

Welcome Benito blanco to the Richmond thread. Any plans to mod the G? if so, what? Btw, post some pics when you get a chance and what part of RVA you in?
As for advice, stay tuned to this thread about any local get together, meets or car shows.

right now i don't have any major mod ideas, just got the G 8 days ago...tint is next up, not planning on doing wheels or a drop until spring at the earliest. definitely trying to take my time with the modding part while learning what i can from guys/ladies() like you all!

i'll probably post some pictures after tint is done. i live in the museum district...devil's triangle to be more specific.

thanks for the welcome! hope everybody had a great thanksgiving!

 

Welcome!

Pretty much what Tony said....

As for advice I see that you want to go a lower, if you have dreams of a slammed car I hope you enjoy the sound of frame/body hitting the ground VA roads are not low car friendly but most of us have gotten away with a small drop ~1" all around, that way we have the lower stance and no more gap between tire and fender
any lower and you might run into issues with your front bumper

 

Pepper:But it's like my wife says to me " why is your car this low?!? You can't go anywhere!!! ". I reply " it's like when you wear high heels that hurt your feet... You know it's not comfortable but you do it anyways cuz it looks good!".

Hahahaha yes!!!!! Can't wait to say that to mine

 

Let me put a disclaimer in this...

^ puahahahaha!!! yeah, definitely gotta put that in there since you never know if you'll meet his wifey or not. You may have to do the George Bush ducking a shoe move.......LMAO!!!

 

hahaha!

yeah im definitely not trying to have a slammed G...id drop it an inch or two at the most

 

Go with the Eibach Pro kit. 1 inch front, .08 inch in the rear. swordsman and I both have the same setup and it works well without sacrificing ride quality too much.

 

nice! sounds good...you guys got any pictures?

 

^ here is a picture of Arjun's G37 and Bryant's G37, both are running 20" rims from Vossen.......enjoy!

 

Awesome pix as usual Tony. Another reminder why I bought the G over everything else I cross-shopped. Still happy nearly 2 years later

 

Thanks Bryant! I'm getting better the more i get more exposure to shooting at different settings on the cam.

 

niiiiiice! definitely a good look...i live in downtown richmond, if you're familiar with richmond you know how shitty our roads here are...if you frequent this area have you had a lot of issues with this?

 

i don't think the guys have had any issues with their cars being lowered to effect their driving abilities on the crappy roads.
