Well figured I would update with what has been done lately for the beginning of 2011

December of 2008 I let a bodyshop talk me into doing a widebody on my G35.
That began a downhill spiral where my car would be off the streets for 2yrs to the date.

Here are the pictures from when I first started stripping down the car







The bodyshop wouldn't start until I got my 360 Forged wheels which didn't come in until June, 2009

so in the March, 2009 I decided to upgrade some other things like EMS and Gauges







April, 2009 got me some APS 3.5" downpipes which I heat wrapped and added bungs for my widebands





June, 2009 Finally got my wheels from 360 Forged









July, 2009 I bring the car back to bodyshop so they can start working on it now that I have the wheels



Car just sits around in the bodyshop always coming up with excuses summer comes and goes so I decide to do something to keep my mind busy.

Oct, 2010 I decide to start ordering parts for a engine build and start tearing down a motor I had from a friend that had a spun bearing with the help of a friend







March, 2010 I start assembling the motor after the machine shop has done the machining and worked the heads with new valves/springs/seats and a mild valve job







April 2010 I finish putting the motor together got my new BBK







I go back and forth a few times to the bodyshop and the car is getting minimal work done. June, 2010 I tell them either get it done by July, 2010 or I will get the car out of there and they could deal with the law. I pulled out the car end of June a week before the deadline and the car still sat the same as always.

July, 2010 My friend gives me a spot on one of his lifts for me to pull the motor and put in the new one





While the motor was out I had a local shop spray the engine bay



Car sitting back in my driveway after installing the motor



Now I started legal proceeding against the old bodyshop and started looking for a new body shop.

August, 2010 took the car to get a break in tune





Nov, 2010 found a new bodyshop local to me and they started working on the car. They decided to kick the FG fenders to the curb and do metal work on the stock fenders



December, 2010 Car is done finally after a 2yr ordeal thank to my new bodyshop






Right now I got most of the interior back together and it's winter so once springs comes
I put this bad boy on the road break in the motor and turn up the boost and reinstate Meth

 

engine work and the paint job looks great, but not feeling the custom body kit at all, fenders are too flared.

 

Good work but the body does not look good at all
Not feeling the bumpers or fenders

 

for real.the lines of the G are gone looks like this car...

 

I really hope that dude is getting wider wheels!! That looks stupid!!

 

unique build, thats for sure. sucks you had the car down for so long but happy you got it back. i know you were after a certain look/lines so as long as you're happy with the final product is what matters.

 

Thanks Woady

I made some compromises and had to change a few things for functionality
there are somethings that could have been better but overall I'm happy and
just happy once Spring come to put it back on the road, get used to the car
again and start dialing in the new suspension before I get back to track events.

 

i wanna see the boost turned up more to see her real numberrsss... actually, i take that back.. i just wanna see you make it out of 2-3rd gear smoothly first

 

I want to see how fast you drive that thing into a concrete wall. With that horsepower you should have no problem destroying that piece of crap.... Hey it would probably look better than it does right now.... Just my .02 cents.

 

Wow. That was rude.

Anwyho, nice to see the build. I wanna see some track action. Not really a fan of the look, but I am a fan of the performance upgrades.

 

If drive a stock black G that a freggin automatic, I would shut my trap.

Obviously you dont have the extra cash or ***** to try anything other than radio mods, and selling off OEM parts.

You have no threads other than crap threads on here, which reflect your crap stock car. Do something worth your .02 post man. Seriously.

im taking your .02 cents back and pulling your man card with the coupe AUTO FTML


OP

well done i like how they did the wide body.

 

we know what time it is.
