Help me name my build

So I thought I might start a build post since I tend to lurk and read lots of useful information without contributing my own (sorry!). The time has come for me to be an active member of the G/Z community. To start with I currently own 3 cars, a 2002 Focus (not running atm, possible side project), a 2011 Mazda3, and my baby and personal favorite, a 2009 Infiniti G37 sedan. I intend to go pretty far with modding the G, definitely going to end up with some form of FI with the big debate being TT or TSC. BUT for this year I'm planning on some silicone hoses, already have K&N drop ins, an Uprev tune (already running lean with the drop ins), and HOPEFULLY Fast Intentions exhaust and RHFCs before the year is over. For now I'm burning through some cheapo dealership tires they threw on for me when I bought the car until they're bald enough to justify a set of Conti Extreme DWs. I'd also like to get Enkei RPF1s but they're not cheap lol so maybe something from Motegi that are only 2 lbs or so heavier. I've also been eyeing a set of Hotchkis sways I'd like to get this year, and eventually I'd like coil overs but my God are those pricey! I feel like this is a very solid build idea and won't be doing much more until I decide which FI route to go with, but I do have one sticking point. A name. My G is special to me. It deserves a name and some vanity plates to go with it. But I'm at a complete loss. So I'm open to suggestions! Looking for something not too flashy (it's a silver sedan. Its NOT flashy) but that still captures the awesomeness of the VQ platforms. Please help me name my project. If your suggestion wins you'll be seen on a vanity plate all through north Texas

@ Canadian bacon lol yeah I know a good TT setup is gonna run 10k+ I just meant coil overs are a bit pricey for a year 1 mod, probably gonna be year 2 while I work on the bolt ons. Also it could be a name for the build or plates all suggestions welcome! If it's a good build name I'll just adapt it to 7 characters. I appreciate all the quick responses though yall are fast! Although I guess that's to be expected

GSpot lmao.

My personal fav is OMW2FYB. I saw a car with that and could not stop laughing. Funnily enough it was a G35 coupe.

Been gone for a few days busy working. G looking all nice just changed my oil yesterday probably plasti dipping my stock wheels on my next day off. Next mods are gonna be an engine grounding kit and silicone intake hoses without the sound baffling. Added a K&N sticker so with my K&N oil and air filters I'm totally pushing 500 whp LOL. SYNERGY ftw
