Like the title says... the G...


My car...


Obviously I know the wheels will fit...

Mods in question...
- AAM Spec Angled Plenum Spacer
- JWT Intake
- Grounding Kit
- Nismo Stainless Steel Cat-Back Exhaust
- Top Speed Headers
- Crawford High Flow Cats
- Stillen Engine Damper
- Unorthodox Ultra S Crank Pulley
- JWT Flywheel
- Nismo Clutch and Pressure Plate
- Hotchkis Tuning Front and Rear Adjustable Sway Bars
- RS*R ti2000 Springs

The exhaust, springs, damper, and sways concern me as I think the other stuff is no problem... although I could be wrong.

 

Mods in question...
- AAM Spec Angled Plenum Spacer = YES
- JWT Intake = YES (new heat sheild needed or just dont use one)
- Grounding Kit = YES
- Nismo Stainless Steel Cat-Back Exhaust = YES (need extension pipe)
- Top Speed Headers = YES
- Crawford High Flow Cats = YES
- Stillen Engine Damper = YES
- Unorthodox Ultra S Crank Pulley = YES
- JWT Flywheel = YES (not worth paying the labor two times to put the used part in IMHO)
- Nismo Clutch and Pressure Plate = Same for flywheel)
- Hotchkis Tuning Front and Rear Adjustable Sway Bars = YES
- RS*R ti2000 Springs = YES (will lower the car 2" rather then 1"

Here is the G35 Extension Exhaust pipe for NIMSMO Exhaust... it will sit 2" recessed under the rear bumper though...

BLAM! Thanks Jason... now I have to go beat these guys up on price...

 

Why you making the switch? Your Z is badass.

 

^^ Thanks....

I've got 3yr old twins... and I can't give them any thrill rides in the minivan...

 

If I were you, I would condider buying an E46 M3. Because if I want to change my car, I want something really different, and I think that 350z and G35 is very similar in many ways. Just my 2 cents...

 

I was just looking at a 2001 AMG CLK55 online... now thats something different. There's one at the carmax here in town, so I'm test driving tomorrow.

 

Wow it might just be the difference in the amount of sunlight shining on those cars... but those pictures next to each other really show that Z coming off looking a lot nicer than that G35! (Might be your rims as well =P )

 

Clk 55= Pimp

 

Dont buy a used MB that old. You will regret it till the day you sell it.

 

What spoiler is THAT! I like it!

 

you shoulda stick with your 350...

 

Nice, all of your mods can be switched over like jason said, do you still have all our oem stuff?

 

Everything but the OEM exhaust... but I think the G35 oem exhaust will fit with a 5 inch cut...

I think i might be upside down to the point that doesn't make sense to trade in my car for wholesale and buy retail.

 

You guys do realize that a new CLK 55 starts at over twice the price of a 350 Z (say Touring)...

...and lets not even talk about the cabriolet!

If you wanna follow his advice, perhaps a step down (2003 CLK 500) would be appropriate.

 

I have had friends with them and they have been used and new. Only real problems have been the cost of the tires anda few misc things here and there. Only downside is the MB name attached means parts cost more. As for the car it's VERY nice looking and it has Mercedes luxury.

 

I think you're making a smart decision. You don't want to get rid of your Z, but then most of that money you put into won't go to waist. Cool.

 

That mb is badazz, btw look at the two pics, i really dislike the front of the g, just not very sporty. The inside of the g is so nice and the rear is real hot though. Tough decision indeed...
