Let's Price out this Project 37 Sedan
 
So I just got myself a White G37 Sedan and I'm looking to mod it up a bit to make it my own. I'm checking out the forums when BAM, i see this 07 G35 and was - I want to make my car look like this:

http://memimage.cardomain.com/ride_i...007_medium.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.com/ride_i...006_medium.jpg
http://memimage.cardomain.com/ride_i...008_medium.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.com/ride_i...003_medium.jpg

I've been out of the Mod Scene for so long, that I don't even know where to start or who to talk to anymore, so I wanted to see if the myG37 forum could help me out.

Let me list out what I know of this car. If you can help, please let me know what you think I should pay for each mod for this car. I'd really appreciate the help and think a lot of newbs would benefit from your help!

Here we go:

Performance Parts

  • Injen Intake
  • Technosquare Perf. Chip
  • H&R Springs - or maybe Eibach's?
  • Fast Intentions catback exhaust
  • SunAuto Hyperground wires and Voltage Stabilizer
Car Audio & Video

  • Playstation 2 on factory screen and stereo
  • Factory upgraded Bose system(3 10)
Interior

  • Led lighting throughout interior
  • 20x8.5/20x10 sevas s55 - is there an offset? spacers?
  • 20" Falken Tires - don't know Tire Size though
Exterior Styling

  • 2stage gloss black painted headlights and grille
  • 2 stage black candy painted tail lights
  • Black vinyl roof overlay - this looks really good
  • AAC Oracle halo kit in front headlamps
  • Black vinyl rear valence overlay
  • 6000K hid bulbs in headlights
  • 3000k Plug-n-play HID foglights
The basics I really want are:
  • Lowering - Eibachs with these Rims would pretty flush, right? i don't want to tuck!
  • 20" Rims - you think this guy rubs? any fender mods? bottom out much?
  • Where do you get those black housing for the headlights?
  • How do I get that vinyl roof overlay?
This is my second post on this forum, but I've been lurking for a while. It really is a great place to get inspired from everyone here!

By the way, I'm located in San Gabriel Valley in SoCal, so any great shop recommendations would be great too! Thanks!

are these installed prices? or just for the parts?

I'm looking for installed prices . . . after all the negotiations . . what would you pay?

Thanks!

1st off. DO NOT get Sevas S55's. To begin with the company is out of business now and theyre 1pc wheels crack like crazy. Not worth the headache. Keep searching for diff wheels you like.

As far as the headlights and grill, hit up UCLA BRUIN, he is in socal and he paints the headlights and grills. DONT do halo rings, they dont last long and break and fall off easy. Get some custom LED work instead.

For the roof and valance, it would look 100x better if you just painted them, its not that much more expensive than buying the overlays and paying to have them installed.

Fast intentions on the sedan is very quiet, i personally dont like it. Stillen sounds sick!

Eibachs dont drop the sedan evenly, the front is a lil too high.

All my honest opinions on your list. :D

wickedG37 Jun 10, 2009 02:44 AM

wow . . thanks for those tips . . will definitely have to reconsider the sevas since i just saw how much they costs . . any recommendations on similar type rims? I like the 5 spoke black rims with chrome lip 3 piece look

also . . with 20's on the g37 sedan . . how many inches am i looking to drop in front 1.2? 1.5? without rubbing? i really want to keep it as clean as possible with as lil compromises as possible!

D2 quoted a $450 for lowering my sedan on eibachs . . thoughts?

wickedG37 Jun 10, 2009 03:17 AM

are 20" AXIS MOD reliable rims? i found them for 1499 on ebay . . i'm assuming i can get it for way less than that and with tires!

w0ady Jun 10, 2009 09:46 AM

axis is a decent brand without problems like sevas. cant go wrong for the price. as for technosquare - eh. get the cobb accessport if anything. definitely paint the roof and rear valence if you can. otherwise hit up andrew @ bluebatmobile.net for overlays.

Q8y_drifter Jun 10, 2009 02:14 PM

why do you want to make your car look exactly like another person's?
sure his car looks sick but come on, use your imagination!

oOmikeyboy Jun 10, 2009 02:20 PM

^ He's just using another persons car as a guide, i don't see anything wrong with that. Keep an eye out for the Osiris Up-rev, which is just like the technosquare. It should be released for the 370z soon, and hopefully us G owners as well.

It depends on how much you want to spend.. but i would recommend coilovers for the optimum ride height. With these, you can properly adjust the height to exactly the way you want.

Nice choice on a white Sedan.. they are sweet.

Hit up Lou at Amplified, hes in Monterey Park reall close to u! im sure he can get u better pricings for Eibachs, Injen Intake, and exhausts. Consider the new Invidias that came out, I have Invidias on my G and I love them, the cost on them are lower than the Fast Intentions. One of my buddies BLUESLATE has fast intentions with Fast Intention HFC and it sounds amazing. I wouldnt say its quite at all. If you want wheels, I can hook u up with iForged custom wheels, to make your G unique u should go with custom wheels and custom offset and sizes! Let me know!!

degalaz808 Jun 21, 2009 11:36 PM

I picked up a 09 G37S sedan... got Eibach springs and sitting on 20" all around. The ride is like stock if not better. I'll post some pix soon!

I picked up the springs from Stillen for about $230.

wickedG37 Jun 22, 2009 12:13 AM

looking forward to the pix . . . .

how much was the eibach installation?

what kind of rims did you get?

This is starting to get addicting again! >:)

TJHG37S Jun 22, 2009 01:06 AM

iForged Aero's look similar, i have them on my car (check my album) and they're 3pc w/ polished lip

wickedG37 Jun 23, 2009 02:56 AM

so I found some rims:
Wheel Brand: Axis S7 Mod
Size: 20x9 Front/ 20x10 Rear
Quantity: 4
Bolt Pattern: 5x114.3
Offset: 37mm front/ 38mm rear
Finish: Jet Black with Polished lip


Do these stats sound right to have a pretty flush mounting?

Question - I'm planning to drop my Sedan on Eibach Pro-Kit Springs . . . what kind of tires should I get to maintain as comfortable a ride as possible? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

illusive45 Jun 24, 2009 07:48 PM

I'm looking at getting a white G sedan too, and doing something similar to Ivory Pearl 07's G. Of course imitation is the greatest form of flattery. That look crosses over to any make/model. I've been a huge fan of white cars with dark wheels, black roof, and rear diffuser...nuthin wrong with that.
You just do certain subtle things that sets yours apart from the others.
