Doom's G37S 6MT Build

Doom's G37S 6MT Build-dagkbnch.jpg

Bought this car as a rebuilt salvage title. 54k miles. I was originally looking for a beater G since I had a bunch of mods on my 07 G35X, but this rare 6MT came up and I couldn't refuse. Drove it to my work, an Infiniti dealership in Milwaukee, and had the techs inspect it to make sure it was straight before buying it. Came with a bunch of mods, was previously owned by Lobuzz on these forums who had some excellent taste in mods.

I'm in to follow this project. Seems like a fine pick-up, salvage title notwithstanding.

Why do a few of your pics have a 2015 timestamp? And fender flares on a DD sedan?

I had just bought that camera and I didn't bother changing it. DD? It's not a daily if that's what you're implying. The ones I bought were more for mock up, what I actually end up getting or at the very least switching to will be more in line with this:

Fender flares are a must for me on this car. The OEM rear offsets are extremely boring and the wheel selection for them isn't what I want. Most of the wheels I like are best at +22~

Picked up my Admin's, 3" TB's, and a ported upper intake for $950 today. Was a 2 hour drive but I'd call that worth it. Also got OEM suspension so I can sell the Stance setup from my X.

If your Stance set up will fit a 2011 X Sedan, PM me please. Glad you found a stock suspension

Working well outside of my comfort zones here. Just like the fenders the cf side skirts are not pre drilled and the slots for the clips are also not cut. I drilled the holes and cut slots for the clips using a dremel. To have them lined up I tried my best to trace the originals on a piece of paper and mark on the CF side skirts where to cut/drill. I still have to do this on the fenders, but those holes are a at least indented. Fenders have to go on first just for ease of install. It will be a small maricle of this ends up looking fine without a professional. I'm not a very skilled man... Not to get dark but I had no dad growing up so I literally never used tools until I turned 18 lol.

New hubs, duct baffle installed, and 10mm extended studs installed. Also doing the front calipers/2 piece rotors/pads up front, as well as the camber arms I took from my X. Need to get a huge socket to get my camber nut off.

Stripped both top spindle arm bolts, sadly on different days lol. At least I still get an employee discount at my old Infiniti dealership . Replaced the one but have to go back Monday for the other. One was my fault, other not. I could not get those top camber arm bolts quite to 120 ft lbs so hopefully they hold @ over 100. I feel like 1st stage end is getting near. Finished the other CF fender too.
