That sounds ok. I'd probably do those in reverse order. TT first, then detail last. You know, just to mix it up. But that's just me.

why, awd is a great performance option, if not the best

Too bad the G37X can't be ordered w/ the Sport Package. That would eliminate a lot of the mods you have listed. And, that would seal the deal for me to get the G37X instead of the G37S Journey.

no manual for the awd!

my current g is an auto & it held up just fine with my greddy tt, although I did have the valve body upgraded for faster/firmer shifts...

coz @cpz is selling a retro-kit for g's with out the bbk

they're the actual infiniti akebono calipers & infinti rotor, etc

not quite as beefy as some of the baller bbk that are available, but 4 piston, 14in rotor is a huge improvement over the base brakes
i checked out a thread on g35driver, & i.m.'d "coz", got a killer deal since i dont need the most expensive piece!! (an adapter bracket for pre 08 g's)

anyway i'll keep you updated as things progress...

Welcome fellow Carolinian... All that in an AWD package will be nice. The question is will the 18inchers fit over the sport brakes?
