2011 Shadow Sedan 6spd


Hello everyone,

This I my build I have more pictures I have to add from my laptop due to broken phone and working with what I have. I hope to update as often as I can thanks for checking it out






ARC cat back



Coil overs... voodoo13 camber and toe arms and konig oversteer 19’s







At 80,xxxx my csc failed and I decided to go external with Z1’s kit I also went with a twin disk and light weight flyweight capable of holding 700hp so later when I super charge it’s ready. I also upgraded the transmission mount and complete diff bushings.



Wheels went fine just needed the right size tires



I ordered two different grills yet they both fit awful so I trimmed my perfect new OE grill to utilize my AFE intake had an Infiniti logo cut because I still like a clean factory look



It’s nice playing with V8’s



Work in progress



Oh hi ported & polished lower plenum talk about polished



Ready for some gains



So it was time to change my valve covers so I thought it was the perfect time to do my plenums and plugs and get some fresh ENEOS in there



So I have to say I’m so happy I did this the car breaths better and stronger and I have even gotten a time yet!!!





I’ve wanted these since I got the car!!!<br/>DBA (disk brake Australia) 5000 series front 2 pieces rotors kind of spkrinkle and Z1 two piece sprinkle rotors



These on the back are love meaning I can feel the weight savings on the rear axle plus they look amazing



Rears



Fronts during seating procedure it was awesome to have zero brake fade once the pads seated!! These rotors have three temp zones, after 10 continuous 80mph -10 sets i only saw the beginning of the orange stage



Got this idea from a fellow G member



Now they only come in black... I love this simple functional piece.





Logo is getting re cut to get tig’d on







Love this car



So this 2011 Camaro with similar Bolt one + a tune is my buddies I’ve won 3/4 street races I’m hoping to get to the track in the next two weeks and see what I run. Anyone run in the mid to high twelves in here?
Day one so happy



I was so happy when I bought the OE front lip made the car so much more aggressive.



I’ve tried a few ***** but this ones the one for me.

Awesome build thread. Car is looking very clean. How much weight did those 2 piece rotors compared to stock?

I don't see any N/A G37 running 12s. A supercharged may break into 12s, but I think you'll run close to 13.5.

I'd guess 13.5 @ 103

Did you ever run that CTS-V? How did you do?

The two piece rear rotors cut just over 10 pounds, my stock rear wheels and lugs where 1.6 pounds lighter then the konigs and tuner lugs that are on now.

I beat the CTS-V until about 110 when I pulls me in 2/3 in my favor the V8’s definitely make up a lot of ground up top I have my launches dialed in and get a few out the gate. I’ll have to see what it does at the track I drove my friends at the track prior to buying mine and ran a 13.7 bone stock. I’ll post it either way when we go

Great build, OP. Don't think I've ever seen anyone cut their grille like that and brand the deflector with the Fuji. That's a great custom detail.

Two different sprinkle slot designs between DBA and Z1, but both are worthy rotors, IMO. Those DBA fronts and Z1 two-piece rears are really expensive.

Although the OP's is black. suppose he painted it? I think I would have removed/painted that patent stamp.
