Project_V36
This will be a running build of my sedan. As many of you know ive owned a 07 nismo 350z and moved on to my 13 IPL. With the addition of a baby boy I needed a sedan. So the search began for a v36 g37 in 6mt. Very hard to find. So i came across an 08 g35 sedan which is essentially the same minus the engine. So i present to you my 08 v36 sedan in Garnet Ember Pearl A51.
fully loaded with a 6mt. https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...317706f4fe.jpg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...b4d9eb0530.jpg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...c298a86765.jpg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...a2e5da1f82.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...d23e704495.jpg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...8239eb77bf.jpg |

Time for some go fast! Started with Z1MOTORSPORTS test pipes but my car misfired bad with them down low. Decided to go hfc and it got alot better but still cant floor it under 3k or itll bog. The Z1 gaskets are thin and do not seal proper so i had to double them up.

Not soon after i came across a killer deal on a rear hotchkis sway bar brand new! $50 bucks. The guy threw in a 2017 nismo 370z fsb as well! Cool cat!! Wow what a difference these mods made!! Nismo fsb vs sport fsb hotchkis rsb vs rwd sport rsb. The stance!

Little interior mods. Obligatory GTR start button

Shift knob and extension. woodgrain steering wheel 30mm spacer and nrg hub. https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...e1d34d089c.jpg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...70bf9f0fcd.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...ffe3b3f8a5.jpg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...c555c73c8f.jpg |
During the lull i tried the topspeed muffler delete the drone was unbearable with the HFC. Sister bought a coupe so i live vicariously through her. Really i just get to tinker on it. Some skyline livery. And a sport lip. Installed resonated short tails for her! not pictured are my diode dynamics tail as turn mod https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...c813ee23aa.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...808d318fce.jpg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...e3182f2ac1.jpg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...28992941e7.jpg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...7fc84332c0.jpg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...86e2aae3a9.jpg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...c09fe94c97.jpg |
Car needed brakes shortly after i got the car i did some spirited driving and warped the rotors. Decided i would upgrade to the akebono.
also ordered some wheels. Rota slipstream 18x9.5 +38 square with 275 40 18. Achilles ATR sport 2. nice tires. Quiet ride as well. These wheels required a spacer to clear so i bought fic 10mm bolt on type. While testing it didnt look like that it would work. So i decided to do extended studs and 12mm spacer. The 12 got lost so i went on offer up and found z1 15mm so i got those to get me by. The 12 showed up today. Fitted them and theres still room so i ordered slip on 10mm. Hope it works as i dont want to decrease tire size! had to borrow my sis coupe wheels for a bit then realized the extended studs needed oem oepen end lugs! the bbk install went really smooth until i snapped a front banjo bolt! Got super lucky and the broke piece threaded right out! https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...54de52c60c.jpg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...b0309d4ebb.jpg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...b78d45e06d.jpg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...c8e4c87569.jpg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...2c59305fbc.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...b017bbaa29.jpg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...cf8c95a3ff.jpg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...9bf7de8a3a.jpg https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...74977cb28a.jpg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...6ddd169c76.jpg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...066baece3a.jpg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...e53f16f93a.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...0618688e62.jpg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...71a6c63fca.jpg |

Custom fit some intakes. Not ready to drop big coin on z1 intakes so bought some cheap short ram for a z car. These go a lot further than the short rams for the G specific. https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.myg...59ec942af3.jpg
