Really cool color, DuuMaa... Amazing the amount of color change based on the angle/lighting. How's the finish holding up?


I've also had a Greddy GTR intake manifold and RJM GTR adapter sitting around and waiting for install for around a year now, but not sure if I'm actually going to ever install them or not. Still need to dump a bunch of $$ into my tranny before I can add any more power.

Thanks, I appreciate it! It's holding up decently, not as good as plastidip. Maybe its how we applied it but the areas behind the rear wheel has been taking a beating.

Power wise, I don't think it's there but for reliability the cast manifold should be a lot stronger than the stock plastic one. I also have a stock GTR manifold laying around that I doubt I'd be using.

Are you planning to do any before and after testing with the RJM/GTR manifold combo or is it all part of your future build? FI says that they have been able to get an additional 30 - 40 rwhp out of FI cars with the GTR manifold, but I'm not planning to do anything with mine until I get my tranny done by Level 10 first.

The initial plan was to put the GTR manifold on as the car is being built. I wanted to do the fuel system 1 time so for me to do 2 fuel return setups (1 for the stock fuel rails and another for the RJM conversion) would add some more time to the build, as well as tuning. I'm sure there are gains, but nothing too crazy.

Bump! This thread needs to stay alive, I found wheel specs, and a sick single exit exhaust note, who knows what other cool **** DuuMaa can show us through his build.

Suspension
- BC BR Type Coilovers
- SPC Upper Control Arms
- SPC Rear Camber Kit

Wheel Specs
Gram Lights 57Xtreme
F: 19x10.5 +43 w/5mm spacer
R: 19x10.5 +43

Tires
Nitto Invo
F: 255/40-19
R: 285/35-19

Other Mods
- OEM Infiniti Sport Front Lip
- Stillen Rear Roof Spoiler
- Project Kics Leggdura 2pc Lugnuts











i know this is long ago, but I'm highly considering a set of these in your same specs. Also running BC's. Did you have to do any fender mods? If not, did it rub at all? Always admired your ride. I hope these wheels come out looking as good on a risky black on black option!

The wheels have been discontinued but have come back under different variations, not in the same specs though... At the time of that photo, the fronts were rolled and pulled with the rears having a slight pull. No rubbing on that setup, not even with 5 in the car.

Bringing this thread back from the dead, stay posted.

Any updates? I was looking at a square setup of the TE37 Ultra Track Edition II for my coupe. Love the way yours turned out!
