The hoboG35

Oooh I like this thread, we don't really get G35s here so I'm interested to see what you do with it.

Well after the paint came the time for low so I ordered some coilovers. Didn't initiately drop them super low because I didn't even know how to work the Damn things (noob) so I just threw them on and was happy. Got some racelands because I am a cheap and a hobo by nature lol.

After the coils.


Not low enough but it's a start

Is it really that bad to get things painted where you are?

Well a full respray will set you back at least 2k Euro's when you let a proper shop do it for you.
Extra prepwork may bring it towards the 2,5k I guess and larger vehicles (SUV/VAN) may even reach the 3k mark

Next up? Wheels.

I ended up getting some gtr reps (yup reps lol. Hobolife)

Mainly because I love the wheels and originals are 20s and start at 2 grand. This was my first venture into the stance world and I wanted to start mild. Maybe you guys can guide me into the right direction lol

Don't say lol all the time, we get it you're funny...

Stop saying you're a cheap guy, we all started somewere...

Other than that i'm ok with it and you seem to take pride in what you do.
And that's important.

Ended up scoring some 245/45/18 Yokohama tires with almost full tread for 100.00 so these would have to do for the time being. Got them mounted and they sat in my trunk and backseat for a few days

Yup, that means my car would never be painted lol

Those aren't atypical prices over here either, outside of getting it resprayed by Maaco / Earl Scheib / somebody's cousin.

Loving it ready to see how the wheels look

The gp was faster but the g35 is alot more fun.




Wheels sitting comfy.

Next up was changing the exhaust to give it a more sporty sound. Wanted to give it the coupe sound so I grab a hr and a coupe midpipe.

Came out perfect.



So while the weather was being difficult and I was being lazy I decided to start on my retrofits.
