This, exactly this. Too well said haha. Agreed the interior of the Z was a breaking point for me also. The G is essentially the underdog and a car most people probably wouldn’t consider turning into a track car since it’s a little more expensive, luxurious, and heavier than other options. But that’s all part of the allure for me...making it all work and doing something different. It’s an amazing platform for builds- want to go FI or drop a 2jz or LS in there? Go for it. If you have the money and knowledge it can be done with this car, which is also the reason I’ll probably end up buying another G37s coupe in the next few years to turn into a track-only drift or TA car.
There are much heavier cars out there getting thrown around the track with no problem so I never worried ab the weight of the G. I’ll have cut around 250 lbs total off my curb weight when I remove my spare and back seat also, which definitely helps. If it’s setup and tuned properly it all comes down to skill
. Huge trunk once you remove the spare and all of the danm plastic. Lol
Lowered my 09 g37s coupe m/t on Megan racing lowering springs... the car is sitting pretty low I have about 3.5” of clearance on my exhaust and I scrape on speed bumps near my house lol... here’s a few pics
also installed Z1 intakes! These are amazing I can definitely feel a difference with responsiveness. Quite the hassle to take off the front bumper to install though.
anyone have any tips on wheel spacers? I think I should run some because the wheels are kind of tucked. Not sure about the rear wheels as I think I’d have to trim the fender liner or completely remove it.

I have always been annoyed by my scuffed up engine cover and missing emblem since i bought the car. I do have plans for an ait CF cover but in the meantime decided to try something for fun out of boredom. I suck at painting things but why not try lol...
(Engine cover sand/paint/and did some test fitting while i wait for the burnt bolts that haven't arrived yet)
Before^ Sanding Ready to prime Priming Mid Painting
Not perfect but good enough until i get the Ait CF cover, Im happy 😁

Thanks! Jdm parts ninja has awesome stuff! I want a nicer radiator cap and dipstick now (it never ends once you start lol..) but something plain and less flashy so as not to take away from the Topsecret stuff.
. I wont post pictures until it comes in (10 weeks from now)
