Installed my EPS throttle body spacers for the strut tower bar. Not doing that or the Admin's anytime soon but I figured why not.

Test fitting. This doesn't look crazy hard, though one part doesn't seem to line up nicely. I think I could wing that part. I have a goal of 2 weeks maximum to get this together again. I think it could go fast if I did it straight from morning to afternoon but it's still cold in the mornings and I think I get easily stressed out or burnt out in long sittings.

• Routing front brake lines
• Bleeding Brakes
• Battery tie down / cowl install
• Side Skirt install (only 1 cut)
• Fender install (0 cut)
• Headlights
• Cut holes for Admin Intakes in advance
• Front Bumper
• Grill

Seems reasonable but I'm starting a new job so my time will be reduced. I have other things like the brake ducts I have to route and the brake master cylinder but I'm not in a rush to complete those yet. I'm donating this car to Thaitanium Performance shortly.

 

Your build is A1. Love all the parts.

So En plans to make more G37 sedan parts? I intend to pick up a set of his Titanium exhaust in the future.

 

He just wants it to make a install video I think. But he could be doing more I'm not sure. It's not my daily so I'm glad to help out, plus he's giving me a discount on the exhaust.

 

Man you are doing work! Keep it up, really digging the build.

 

Alright I finally got the first fender officially on! lol. what a pain in the ***. I've had these since last tax returns. Originally planned on putting them on my X, now I'm glad I didn't.

 

Other side. This side was a little more difficult to line up despite the experience gained from the previous. Probably slightly due to the fact that this was the side involved in the accident and the fender brackets were a little wonky. Fitment from my installs isn't perfect, but over all I'm pretty happy. I have to line the hood up better right now it's way closer to the drivers side fender.

 

Just like the pre-emptive install of the EPS throttle body strut tower bar spacers, I cut the openings for my future Admin install since I had the front bumper off now. I gotta say, I know people dismiss Takeda compared to the other CAI options, but if you want the best no hassle great fitment CAI this one is easily recommended (what I had). The fact that it's supported on the crash beam is pretty cool.




Doing this was so much easier with the bumper off vs the grill only removed lol! Did a Stillen Gen 3 before too.

 

Sure that's big enough? You could drive a truck through that hole.

I know you're going with the AdminTuning intake, but good choice on the Takeda. I like the way the MAF sensors are on the underside of the mid-pipe. Very clean.

 

Installed my Z1 brake master cylinder brace today. I cheated and it was pretty easy after I took the lines in the way off. Good thing I didn't fill my fluid up yet/bleed the brakes. Man I'm sad these pics turned out so bad. I'll get one good one of it installed tomorrow.

 

Test fit.

 

Beautiful, just beautiful.

 

It's on. The passenger fender to bump nose section is just going to have to not look perfect. I can't get that thing to get any better currently. Bled the brakes too. We're almost there boys!

 

For now this will be fine. I will change things up later. Starting on the ducts.

 

 

Both ducts are done. Wheel well liners also installed now. Tires ordered for the Rays!!!!! 275/40/20 and 315/35/20's! 265/35/20 and 305/30/20 Nitto NT555 G2's. Gonna look brutal. I also bought my fender/quarter panel cutter but I'll need to borrow a higher RPM drill. The over fenders I have will only be temporary, as I plan to add more modern looking ones or molded ones in the future. My original goal was to get this up and running for a car show on the 14th, I MAY just make it. *edit* going with lower profile tires.
