Hi all,
It's Ned again, the guy with TopSecret widebody that caused on fire back in 02-20-13.

Anyway, I'm back with our vq35 family now. I'm making my car LIVE again!!
I haven't touch my G since the fire accident ( basic insurance :-( ). My mechanic agreed to help me with this project. First, we just bought 05 G35 coupe shell ( no engine) silver with Blk interior to start.
Last night, we checked all functions with this newly purchase. Everything works except for blank screen with oem navigation.
My TopSecret G engine was compression tested, coil pack, fuel system, etc.... Everything works fine EXCEPT for factory ECU partially flooded by fire department. A few fuses blown as well. It's no biggie at all.
Removing the TopSecret body kit wasn't that hard. Every part was clip on and secured by 10mm bolts. The clearcorners.com head lights + clear corner set working ok. I notice that passenger head light losing 6 LEDs in the strip area. ( not sure how to fix this).
We'd add body kit first and will try to finish the looks before engine + tranny + twin turbo swap. All these parts are in ONE. Swapping isn't hard but finishing the rear body parts ( red bumper + rear wide body quarters ) will be a real headache.
I'm thinking of ARP rear quarters + rear bumper to complete the looks. Unless someone can help me getting the TopSecret rear quarters and bumper. I'll pay " a Finder fee" for sure.
I will post pictures once the project start rolling..... Stand by
Ned
