I replaced my lower plenum spacer, it is in no way visible from the top down so scratch that lol

Also be aware that the spacer has a type of glue on the top of the bottom that is more like a thin felt strip that adheres the lower and uppler plenums together, so you will want to make sure you don't remove that so that you have an airtight seal! Just an FYI. I had my upper plenum polished and it didn't hurt anything at all.

Here's my polished plenum from back in the day with my Injen intake, you can hardly even see the 5/16" Spacer unless you get super close. Hope this helps ya

I think it was like 150 bucks or something, I had my core sent out and he sent me a diff one back that was already polished. It was a guy on the G35driver forum that did it for me. I think his SN was SXCX something lol

SxExCx, when I was in cali, i went to his house and he installed the polished upper plenum and ground kit on my car. Was a pretty cool experience and he is a really cool dude.




Happy Valentines Day everyone! Im gonna treat my car to fresh tank of premium gas I think.... shes the only love in my life lol..

I know of a friend who lives in South St. Paul who is fantastic for flowers! I've been using her the past few months with Shannan and she does a great job. Let me know if u guys are interested, she hand picks everything and throws it into a great collection. Saves me 20 tto 30 bucks a time through her for the same service as a generic flower shop! The only problem is that her co workers have been getting rather jealous lately shoot me a text n I'LL pass along her info.

So I just got off of the phone with Bloomington Infiniti. I was looking for a estimate on how much a quarter panel will cost on both driver and passenger for my Coupe. Damn Abra Auto Body shop almost made me crap my self when he told me the price of each quarter panel was going to be around $1000-1500 EACH.

Turns out it will cost $640.73 each. Unpainted.

Time to go find a good body shop. Hopefully I can get this rusting fixed by then end of the summer.
