As some of you know I've been a VQ fan since the beginning.

My first experience with VQ was a 2003 SC G35 from 2005 to 2010.

Being that life isn't always fair I was forced to part from it.

Thanks

Mild tune at 8 psi, nothing to stressful (480whp).

Next step is a CJM 1.5S fuel return and 12 psi tune.

Hello friends,
Just installed Nismo Diff cover, high energy bushings, and motul 300ls rear end fluid. With extended vent line.

Was having issues with fluid boiling over after a Sunday run against a Viper GTS.

Car hooks a little better at the 60ft, and Nismo cover draws a lot of attention with that racing custom look.

Future upgrades will be wheels, and CJM fuel return. All depends how bad my modding bug needs a fix.

Looking great back there, how did you rate vs. the Viper?
BTW, your wheels are just fine as is!

Just had the headlights refinished at Ulgy Yellow Headlights. Was going to do it myself, but Eirc has a patten hardener. It didn't cost much, and well worth the R and D put into the finish.

Thank you.

Was thinking of Volk GTS's as a replacement down the line. It's a 2 piece wheel that I could send out for powercoating. Just a idea.

My Ray's Game 77 are ok, but it has a barrel style lip that can't be replaced, or repaired.

Nice touches on the body color, the black w/ the red outline ties the red accents like the tails and calipers together very well.

Was wondering where you extended the vent line too? And, if you had considered upgrading the driveshaft while the rear diff was out?
