Yep can't wait. Also having trouble picking out some wheels. Can't decide if rpf1 actually look good or I just get stuck on how cheap and light they are... thoughts on rpf1? Only picked it because it kind of looks stock and way lighter. Is there a better choice?

RPF1s are a quality wheel, not a real fan of the look, but the weight I'm definitely a fan of
I'd look at these Miligrams too, if a black wheel is something you'd consider~
Milligram - Konig Wheels
They weigh 18.5 lbs for the 18x8.5 and 19.5 lbs for the 18x9.5s.

The Wedssports are about 20 lbs in the 18x9.5s in the 10,14, & 15 spoke varieties, and I know you mentioned a 17" wheel, they have a new 17" model too in the 72R, now whether it clears the caliper at the barrel is ???

Pulled the trigger on those wheels, having them shipped to z1.

Maybe can talk them into doing a dyno with my stock (55#)rims/tires, then anther dyno still strapped down with the rpf1/pilot a/s (41#).

Some spl goodies to put on. Been to busy with work out of town to put these and coils on. Hopefully tomorrow I'll get it done. Looking for 1.25-1.5 inch drop at most. We will see what happens

Had Infiniti change fluid in trans, diff, and transfer case. All 3 for $550. I did this for 2 reasons, wanted piece of mind and also trying to make this trans have less clunks. It does drive better but the clunk is still there. Seems to shift smoother? Just the way it is I guess.

Bottom is passenger side. Fits fine.
Top is driver side. Fits not fine


Getting my suspension stuff installed and aligned and of course something went wrong lol. Spl sent me the wrong size for upper front driver side. So we put oem back on and I’m returning them. Let’s see in a couple hours how the car looks. I was really hoping to install everything at once to align once haha o well. **** happens. It could be worse right? Ichiba V2 15mm Spacers
Great quality!
Great quality (excuse the rusty rotors lol)
Extremely easy install. Did exactly what I need it to.
