so they are telling us to havev sex in the car...


as far as everything else goes, victor im so glad you got to this thread before me, i was about to go off on these people in the process of explaining it.

anybody that ignores victors explanation fear my wrath.

 

Well put bobbarker!

 

this looked so familiar

anywayz, i've converted my G35 into a V35 skyline already.

and i've been asked what car i was driving!!!

 

your RHD?

i thought of changing everything (i already want the mom 3 spoke steering wheel) to nissan 350GT setup but theres always gonna be that clock to say "look im an infiniti"

 

who would wanna change to RHD in the first place

later when i have a turbo setup, all i'll see is 3 gauges blocking the stupid infinti clock

 

well you said you converted it,
changing the badges isnt converting it.
thats why i asked.

personally i think theres a certain charm about RHD, parking structures are hell, but at least you can take the short line at In'n'out.

 

well

for the 03 sedan... it wasnt really the simple rebadging....

i had to buy a brand new grill with nissan badge and also a brand new trunk release from japan.

the coupe on the other hand is a simple rebadge job.

 

coupe needs a new grille as well
steering wheel still says infniti
and so do the seats

 

really?

i've seen quite a few ppl changing their badge from Nissan to Infiniti in Japan and Infiniti to Nissan on their coupes. they all say the grille is shared.

 

looks like my emblem is part of the grill to me
ive tried taking it off out of curiosity.
its not giving.
either way im getting an aftermarket grill from gialla nice and sporty.

 

Actually it would make since if it was under 5 grand.

 

hey bob, can you post a pic of that grill? I can't seem to find it. Thanks!

you can find the bod kit from gailla, impul, nismo, and stillen there.. pics of them atleast

 

no, i want to keep it secret
curses foiled again
hopefully nobody with blue wants it

 

AWD!!!!!!!!!!

when is that coming to the states???

ill buy a G35 AWD in a FLASH!!!

 

hmmm...I love the grill on the gialla kit, but I like the bumper on the Impul kit better with the open mouth....

so many things to spend my money on!

 

if i was you i'd wait too see the Top Secret Kit i hear a lot of japanese tuners are starting work for the G35 for the next auto salon...

 

are there any pics out floating around of what it may look like yet? I keep hearing Top Secret is working on something...would love to have a peek!!
