if you are talking about the shifter vibrating, yeah they all do that. some people call it feedback, others call it annoying. doesnt bother me at all. and that 2nd gear problem of yours........i had one similar to that. 'cept'n i went from 6th to 2nd instead of 4th at about 80mph. ever tached 8 grand before???

sexy ride

Look at this guy, gutting the WHOLE interior on a BRAND NEW CAR! I dont why you stopped at dashboard lighting, you know you'd be taking those seats to someone and getting them covered in some exotic hide!!! Dont act like we dont know YOUR style!!!

At one of the meets I got a chance to sit in one of those and it has a roomy interior, which kinda suprised me! I would have to do some mods to the interior to 'richen' it up alittle though. its cool because I would not to ANYTHING to the exterior past wheels and suspension! it has a very muscular, clean look to it

AZN-does yours have NAV?

i personally dont need the navi and i can do something with the empty space that navi takes up.
but it DOES look pretty tite tho. maybe i'd get one when i get older and get an SUV so i can use it when i drive around places.
i wanna make this more of a performance car (sleeper). kekeke.

Bryan, i'm still working on shifting smoother. ha ha. until then, u must wait. then we'll roll to life plaza or something.

Sweet! I like that color, very reserved, but classy. 10 full points on the purchase.

i duno why i'm having trouble shifting to 2nd.
well heres the pic.
Very nice.. I like the color... I am not sure if I would get a Z or this... Brembos is very nice set of brakes / rotors, when I replaced the rotors on 240SX I went to Brembo slotted/cross drilled... My next step will be 300ZX TT calibers later down the road...

Keep us posted on your new toy...

Those are 20" iforged evolutions, I' ve almost decided on those until I read about their poor customer service reputation in the wheel forum. Here's another pic of the same car:




BTW, hope you get your Service Engine light issue resolved soon.(I' ve just read about it in g35driver.com)

I'm so glad they brought that blue back! They had it on the 2003s (the 4 doors) and then got rid of it on the 2003.5s. Such a sweet color.

to be honest, the G is probably simpler to much, as there is not much that needs to be done, just wheels, suspension, and exhaust IMO

Maybe other crap like intake, cams or stuff that like, but not engine swaps, and all that other crazy stuff the SC has avail!!
