Nice! Congrats.

I keep going back-and-forth on that amber eyelid. At the moment, I think it looks great.

 

Looks Great! Wish I could run my canadian g37 without the drl to have the halos run by themselves. The canadian headlights are running all the time. Went to the dealership to have them turn them off but they can't do anything about it or don't want to

 

Looks great, second Ontario G that I know of with OneEighty lights (well, the only one now since the first one was totalled last year)

Nico is from Canada There is a way that works on some cars, and doesnt work on others where you swap your vin number with a US one in the scan tool, and it allows you to disable them. My buddy at a dealership successfully did this once, but it didnt work on two other cars, so its hit and miss. Im curious if it can be changed with just the wiring makeover. The earlier Canadian coupes use the fog lights as DRL, and the headlights stay turned off. Curious if you can use the wiring from the coupe or if its really a software thing.

 

Really sorry to hear that, Noah. My insurance company wanted to total out my 2008 when it was hit in the right rear quarter panel a couple of years back and your damage is considerably worse than mine was, so it unfortunately it doesn't surprise me that the car is a total loss.


The biggest issue is those rear quarters will actually need to be cut off and new ones welded on. I saved a bit of money in that the body shop I used was able to get a right rear panel from a scrap yard off a car that was wrecked on the driver's side, but you will need both quarter panels replaced along with the rear bumper and trunk. Plus any damage that you might have to the undercarriage and/or suspension. So I would say it's probably not worth trying to fix it yourself. I would just pull off all of the parts that you put on it (unless your insurance company is reimbursing you for those) and then start over from scratch with another G37 sedan.

 

+1 on the RPM's being to high at cruise speeds... even if 6th were more of an overdrive ratio and I was required to drop a gear more often on steeper inclines, I'd be fine with that

 

The trick is finding someone that will actually do the work. I even tried countless US dealers, none of which wanted the liability. It is illegal to remove DRL's in Canada, but Drive Clean has detailed the process in the below thread...

Post #25 and #32 are the Cole's Notes... I believe you will have the best luck sourcing a third party service shop with access to the Nissan Consult menu

 

Nothing special, but good few hours of detailing~Clay Bar, Compound buff, and Carnauba wax, damn it's been too long!

 

Yeah, i figured. That really sucks. I suggest not trying to fix it, and I suggest you pull off ALL the mods you can, get another G and transfer them. Otherwise you have to deal with getting the quarters cut and welded, any undercarriage damage and then it'll also be a salvage title.

 

Same here, I didn't go all out with a detail but I vacuumed and did a quick hand wash. Car was filthy from all that April rain. Also swapped in my OEM all season floor mats while I was at it

 

wrapped interior trim in 3m brushed vinyl. Contrasts nicely with carsmo controls. Apologies for poor quality.

 

Couldn't you have just pulled the DRL relay?

 

From what I've read on multiple forums.... it just isn't that simple

 

Just a couple quick shots on my to lunch today

 

So, where's your car? I see a huge Bucs sign but no car. Oh, wait, there it is. That tiny little object at the bottom.

If you're taking photos of your car, focus on the car. Big and bold and in the center.

 

solid ride daddyfatsacs, you ever think about wrapping the chrome trim or kept it cause it matches the wheels? also....go patriots
