SAM - great job man, this is such a sick build. I haven't been on the site for a long time but i just happened to sign in and came across your thread a day ago and since then I've read all 37 pages. lol like most people mentioned it's like reading a novel or watching a show. Although i just wanted to skip to the last page i fought through it and read every page. Definitely worth it. I couldn't imagine the anticipation you felt through the entire build.
On a different note a year after I bought my first 08 G37 auto (2011) i swapped it for an 08 6MT (fun factor). Just recently I was thinking about trading it in or selling it in hopes to get my hands on an R34. However what you've done here is just plain f****** awesome. I know for a fact that I'm keeping my G and although I don't think i'll tackle a project like this anytime soon, who knows what will happen down the road.

Thanks for your build, so sick !

Thanks for the kind words mflo As you said, it's a never ending novel, my new turbo just showed up this morning and I can't wait to throw it in and get her re-tuned. Then cams, then an external fuel system, it's just never ending man haha
