Thumbs up As The Sun Sets: My Stillen Supercharged G37 on Vossen Forged: Precision Series




Full Blog Diego's Infiniti G37s VPS-309

The sun finally sets on my G37s, but first we had to capture the entire build on film before I put this project to bed. I first started modifying cars with my 2008 G37 which I had for 5 years but it never reached it’s full potential that I had a vision for. Two years ago I picked up another G37, but this time it was fully loaded with a 6-speed manual transmission and I knew exactly what I wanted to do with it: Stillen Supercharger, AP Racing Radi-Cal BBK, Accuair Air Suspension, GTHAUS exhaust and our all new Vossen Forged: Precision Series wheels.



I am running the VPS-309 forged wheel, in a cinnamon finish with 20×10 up front and 20×11 out back with custom offsets, wrapped with Nitto Invo 285/25/20 front & 305/25/20 rear. The AP Radi-Cal Big Brake Kit is by far my favorite modification, with 6-piston front calipers and 2-Piece 370x36mm discs and 4-piston rear calipers with 2-Piece 360x28mm discs. The calipers are pressure-forged with J-Hook discs.



The Accuair stage 2 E-Level setup keeps my daily-driving extremely practical while still being a show-stopper at any local event when I air all the way out. The Meisterschaft exhaust is literally the closest bark you will get to a GTR. The sound is like no other and I certainly enjoyed every minute of it.



Some other modifications done on the car have been pretty unique, like my authentic jam Zele front bumper with custom carbon fiber bottom lip and vents, which was is a full one-piece bumper—certainly one-of-a-kind and extremely rare.



I have also replaced the Stillen heat exchanger with a front mount air to water version for better cooling during the high temps here in Miami, but the look is also worth it. Definitely sets the Zele bumper off more when staring at the car head-on.



I kept everything else “factory like” with the OEM IPL aero side skirts and rear bumper and OEM sport wing keeping it simple, clean, and classy. This G37 has been my daily driver for two years straight while also being my show car, which has been all over the place (including features by Speed-hunters, which was another great memory I will never forget).



So much history behind this build but as I mentioned in the video, it’s finally time to let go and move on.

And when you say let go and move on? What does that mean exactly? Are these details out there somewhere? Haha.

Here is what was replaced with my G37 R35 GTR Black Edition! Very happy and still shocked this happened. I already have the GTHAUS exhaust coming and selling these rays forged wheels since we will have our own forged wheels going on so stay tuned

Your monoblock forged wheel line is very nice and I'm glad you guys decided to pull the trigger on cnc machines and have them made here in the USA. Good job Diego and Vossen can't wait to see you transform this GT-R. Oh and congrats and that as well

Once I saw you parting out the G, I said to myself I bet you he gets a GTR. And there it is. Beautiful man, I know you will enjoy that thing. Can't wait to get one myself.

That looks awesome Diego, my instagram was blowing up with pics of this red GT-R and it took me a while to realize what the heck was going on. Congrats and enjoy!
