Hello. My name is Edgar I'm from Pomona,CA.
I've lurked for a few months and decided to "introduce" myself.
i have a '13 Journey.AT.
currently on Ksport Coils and RPF1s.18x9.5/10.5 +20 something i don't remeber.
I regret not going 10.5 all around,don't like the "sunk" look the fronts give.
i purchased an Autokits(i think that's the name) diffuser with an LED. Going to have ig user elstig mod the light to have a low red when lights on,flash when braking and solid red when stopped.
waiting in an Ig user from China to mold his flares and sell them to me because i love that look,kinda like Drew Evans.(Liberty Walk) I have the wheels already WORK VSXX 18x11.5/12.5 +12/0...also i purchased a complete 6 speed swap (i know,i know, it's going to be a headache ,etc) that my mechanic will start in May (Vacation) because i don't have another daily. Ummm i gues that's it,will remain stock(performance) until i cut it and do the 6 speed swap.
1 question,i just want to be absolutely sure, our VQ is the exact same one out of a 370z ,same with suspension? Well...thats about it ,thanx for taking the time to read.
tL;dr? I have a G37 and some mod dreams.
here's what it looks like and what i hope it can look like by Summer.

Welcome to the site, no problem running spacers in front to get a similar fender fit as the rear. Sounds like some big plans, keep us posted!

All Z34 and V36 suspension parts swap. They aren't the same, though. The G uses stiffer springs because it's heavier than the Z, among other detail changes.

This. The body work alone will probably run you at least 15k.

About 5k or less. Flares will run about 1k, shop will cut for about another $800-1k and paint another $3-5k depending on shop.

oh okay I was just asking because I joined a 370Z Forum to see if I can find used parts like cold air intakes may be high flow cats or supercharger suspension components. The classifieds in this forum are kind of old.

Keep checking the Classifieds forum here because all the parts for which you're looking show up on a regular basis.

What is a "supercharger suspension component"?

Benefit of doubt. The older I get, the less I know.
