$100K+ into a G35 Coupe??!??!

Ok, wow I dont even know where to start. I got a call by the guy who did my spring install awhile back. He was working on a 2004 G35c 6mt, was doing a APS Twin Turbo and built motor for some baller *** guy. The company that did my spring install and building this ridiculous G35 is called SportCarMotion (SportCarMotion.com). Lloyd (owner of SportCarMotion) calls me and wanted to see my stock engine bay, to see where brackets go in the engine bay because he had brackets from the project G from inside the engine bay, they were sent out to get polished (spent 1k to chrome out all the little brackets in the engine bay) and didnt know where they get put in and wanted to use my G to see. This guy bought the brand new 2004 G35 from Escondido Infiniti and drove straight to SportsCarMotion to drop it off to have it worked on it big time. The car only had 7 miles on it!!!! The owner of the G went out crazy on the car, he ordered a new engine from Infiniti ($9k) and shipped to Japan to fully get built with APS twins. The engine is worth 35k and lookin around 6xx whp. He has a built transmission with some crazy clutch and flywheel. APS exhaust. Tein Mono Flex w/EDFC. The owner has at least 4 different sets of some baller *** wheels for the G. Car has a 20k paint job a crazy candy apple red paint job. Suicide doors shaved handles!!! In the trunk he has a crazy system worth over 10k. Blacked out interior, sway every where. Custom leather on the seats. Custom gauges, rearview camera, nice double-din. Kenstyle full body kit. Which was painted silver original color of the car, but owner changed his mind and paint the whole car which was brand new to the candy apple. I checked out he engine and the stock exhaust which where pulled out and left to the side it is still brand new!! (If anyone needs a brand new 04 engine let me know) Inside the car still has the brand new car smell. I was amazed, I dont know if anyone on the forum has ever spent 100k+ on a G35 but this guy sure did. Might not really look like he spent alot but he sure did. Here are some pictures from my iphone. The car should be done by the weekend. Will take some better pictures.

it's too bad he's running a kenstyle rear!
Love the paint though!

I don't get what you are saying though, you said he bought it new in 04' and took it straight there...so they've been working on it for 4 years???
