New on Acurazine

Thought I had an account here from a while back, but I guess I don't...

Anyways, I drive a G35 sedan. I know a bunch of your guys in the fitment scene but here's a shot of the car anyways.



I drive a 1.6EL in the winter so I'm here mainly for parts and what not, but I want to pick up a TL for my girlfriend so I might be a little more frequent on here!

Here's the EL.



All stock, but she sits in the summer and that's when I'm going to start working on it!

Plans for the EL
Full wire tuck (d16, unless it dies then I'll swap something in there)
Fully shaved engine bay (fill all the holes)
Interior stuff
Rear disc brakes
tonnes of fender work
Paint job
Potentially bags (it is a winter car after all )

Engine bay is what I want to get working on this coming spring/summer. Depending how that goes we'll see where my budget is for costly mods.

Thats a beautiful G35 sedan. What year is that G35 sedan? the rear wheel drive and 260 hp must be alot of fun to drive (05- 06 has 280 HP). How reliable is it? and whats the cost of maintenance?

It's an 03, the only things that have cost me money, is breaking things on it lol. being an inch from the ground I bang the shit outta everything!

The 260hp is actually kind of a lie, the 2003 sedans actuall made the exact same power at the wheels as the 2003/2004 coupes. Nissan just figured they would make the coupe sound a little sportier by saying it had 20 more hp.

As odd as this is, the G sedan is actually faster than the coupe lol

Same power but sedan weighs less!

Thanks guys

The other toy and some more photos of the G.








The G is seeing some pretty serious changes for next spring though.

Thanks man, I find the tails are really a hate it or love it. I'm still undecided weather or not a love it but I love being different so it stays.

I'm the owner of the only two of those trunks in existence (which is cool) One is carbon, the other is not.

They're actually for sale right now, as soon as I am allowed to 15 days I think? I'll post them up in the marketplace.

Welcome!

Your G is gorgeous. I love everything about it. I'm in for more pics

My dad has a 2005 Lakeshore Slate Metallic G35x. The power and sound of that car is intoxicating.

Nice looking ride and I like the tails assuming they are flush (one pic they look like they stick out on the bottom). Are they just the newer tails? Any more pics?

Welcom

Tails are just OEM 05/06 outer tails, but I shaved the reverse lights out of the trunk.

Flush with what? the trunk and bumper? If so, yes.
