Project G45
#1008
Thumbs down on the haters, I just read all 68 pages before work. That's too bad there wasn't more support from people, with the inherent understanding that something of this magnitude takes time. I spent 4 years restoring and building my old Impala, and there were no custom fabs involved.
Big ups Kel, shake 'em off like dandruff - I'm impressed with how you took the criticism (particularly the childish nonsense that some grown "men" on here dished at you). I can't wait to see the end product.

Being that he posted on here we can get our thoughts. You have to take the bad with the good. The problem is it doesnt take this long to build a car. I built mine in a year so it can be done.

My two cents on the color, Kel, is Aston Martin Tungsten Silver or Merlot Red

Really? Lets see.
My motor was removed by myself three times. Once for paint, another for Cams, Fuel system, Vortech. For the 3rd I removed it for polishing and to twin turbo it. Lets not forget about the fuel system and a COMPLETE tubed fiberglass system. The mods on my car far surpass this car by a mile.
You might want to search my many threads before making a claim like that.

G352NV did waaaaaay more than some bolt-ons and slapping some wheels & a stereo on it. Did most of the work himself too (in his garage I believe). But I don't think this is the thread for a pissing match tho.
Kel, I'm glad to see your project coming together no matter how long it has been. Good luck, looking forward to seeing more of it.

Good luck building your car.

The mods on your car surpass this car by a mile i was not going to say anything to this obvious hater but sometimes I just cant take the comments , wow your car had a kenstyle body kit, then you added the so hard to install vortech which takes me a day to install on a car. I find it real funny how you bring up how much more your camaro will be worth after the work you put into it I didn't know everyone here modified their car for a return investment you might as well say: hey all u stupid g35 ricers why waste money on turbos, superchargers, exhaust,etc. your car is only going to be worth half anyway. Yeah I'm mad a$$ hell right now hearing this guy talk about the so so easy swap that everyone else who tried has not finished. let alone completely interface with the car's computers were everything works like stock, down to emissions ,speedometer etc.

Greddy kit then TS and ings, then a reworked Kenstyle front and rear.Vortech, APS TT, I painted the car, custom made fenders, FULL custom fiberglass trunk, Full custom interior, and the list goes on and on. Yes I did every mod myself in about a year. Yes ALL of the mods.
I never said cars are a investment BUT there comes a time when you become smart about modding. You dont even want to know what Ive lost on custom motorcycles, Trucks, Cars. After what I lost on my G I said next time Ill be smart about modding. Thats when the Camaro came in to play.
I have no hate to you. But lets be real about this. This in no way shape or form should have taken this long.
