Hello i'm a newbie

i posted this on the main site (USA)

so i'll copy it here to

Tom (ukgt) has bought me on line with you guys here on G35

My name is Andy and my wife Sally owns a Skyline 350GT

We have both been in the *** import scene which is massive in the UK since 1999,

So really been there done that regarding imports

i'm on most UK forums as either "BLITZ" or "BLITZSKYLINE"


Anyway here are a few pics of our cars


I'll start with Sallys Skyline350GT

Blue 6 spd manual 2004 model

Also had a custom bespoke leather interior fitted , and the first thing to go was the standard shocking chrome grille on the front ,

we fitted the 20's as the standard wheels are pretty tiny on the car and as standard , the car came with the brembos ,

other mods imported from USA as mega cheap for us Brits ,

carbon engine cover
injen Air intake
clear repeaters
rear spoiler ,
grille

I've never been a fan of the JDM reverse camera kit.

Welcome to the forums, though.

Its low enough , standard ride height ,although a friend has lowered his

tyres are
245/35x 20 fronts
275/ 30x20 rears

i think the 350 looks good on 20's anything smaller and they look tiny for the size of car and arch ,

ride is not compromised at all on 20's

although if you go wider than the sizes above you end up going to 25 profiles as my friend has , not ideal for UK Roads to be honest, he has 285/25 on rear 265 on front
