Appreciate it! Looking forward to the install as well, just one more day!

This is a factory color blue, they discontinued Athens, forget what year- but Infiniti calls this 'Lapus' blue.

KWv3 Installed

Was able to get off the Eibachs and on to the KWv3's this past Saturday, ride is night and day from just throwing a set of springs on.

Right now I'm sitting at 26in all around for height, I'm expecting close to another half inch drop when they settle.
Currently set the dampening at 9 all around to start off with, and have yet to mess with the compression or the rebound, I left it KW tuned till next weekend.

Right off the bat though handling and performance is a huge improvement, the quality of these coilovers can't be beat. I was amazed at how easy they are to adjust, and no type of noise, just smooth driving.

I had held off on coilovers for so long, and now looking back just wish I had done it sooner!

Here's a comparison shot, Eibach on top, KWv3 on bottom.

Next weekend after springs have time to settle going to take it and get it all dialed in, right now I'm thinking I'm going to move rear dampening to 12, and front to 11 as well as up the rebound some for a softer ride, and an alignment of course. Couldn't be happier with the results, can't wait to finish getting it all set up, and then maybe a nice run at the track!

Here's a few HQ shots that was taken Sunday.

I skipped lowering springs for that reason, coils night and day over springs. Your car is a sexy beast, perfect stance and aggressive. This is what a G should look like, not the soft front ends most of us have next step is IPL front for me.

Again sick car!

Splitter Install

Splitter from Outcast Garage came in yesterday, got it installed and will take some high res pics later today. I choose to pull it back some so it doesn't stick out quite as far as it could and thought it turned out really nice.

Nice! Glad you like it!

Here's a couple quick shots of the splitter mounted, I choose not to have it as far out, thought it came out really nice. Just added that little something extra.

Please excuse the front license plate, new TX state laws
