Yes but not on an hr... Go NGK though.


Anyone have any ideas/recommendations on what color to paint the winter wheels?

White/Gunmetal/Charcoal/Silver? Any others? Or what do you think.

Oh and I have the 350z base wheels, yes the ugly ones....

I have too a few times, I ws just seeing what people thought for either Infiniti, G's or the hr motor. Have you used NKG'S before? And that's what you recommend for brand? I've used Champion, Autolite, and Motorcraft. Never really had an issue with any of those.

I've changed them on a DE motor.

The way plugs go is kind of preference in reality but a lot of people claim plugs should be related to a make or type of car.

Autolite- Kind of a GM plug
Motorcraft- Ford Plug
Champion- Jeep/Chrysler plug
NGK- Import (Japanese etc)

I have used autolite, champion, NGK, and a couple others.

But I have put them in their respected type of car.

I would definitely recommend an NGK plug for a G.

Again it's kind of a personal preference thing like types of oils and oil filters.

You should stick with the type of plug that is from the factory though. Like double platinum, Iridium etc.

So I am considering in buying a new exhaust system for my car by the end of this month or beginning of next month. I am in love with the Topspeed Pro-1 cat back exhaust.

I have been researching around and noticed that Topspeed has two different Pro-1 systems. One is dual pipping and the other one is single piping. (Sorry if I sound stupid)

So my question is which one should I buy? I am not digging the single pipping one cause you can see pipe for the right side exhaust tip.


Single piping

Infiniti G35 Coupe 03-07 Top Speed Pro-1 3" 76mm Catback Exhaust System Systems | eBay

Dual piping

eBay - New & used electronics, cars, apparel, collectibles, sporting goods & more at low prices

I already got a quote from full blown motors here in Apple Valley for $90 for installation on the exhaust. Which would you guys recommend? Dual piping or single?

From this you should get the dual piping one... I wish I wasn't going back up to school, I would gladly have put it in for a lot less than 90 bucks

Hows that hand doing Lance? Hopefully that thing heals quickly... I got 15 stitches above my eye and nose last winter playing hockey and it healed pretty quick. I think yours a probably a little deeper based on how much blood u lost and all.

On a seperate note, I am going to the T-Wolves game tonight with some ppl from work, they have a special for $15 - beer, hot dog, ticket and get to meet the dancers - cant beat THAT!! They have this deal every Wed night, its the Guys night out package. Anyone else been to games yet this year? The team is looking good, first time you can say that since KG left! Oh and that 20 year old spanish kid ain't looking all that bad . Hoping for a .500 season this year

i had 9 stitches inbetween my toes when i was younger....didnt hurt nearly as much as this. that was all skin....my hand was all meat and nerves. just pretend your cutting the muscle in your hand right wear i did it....

according to the doc too, they call it "no man's land" because there's so many nerves and tendons right in that area of the hand
