New guy from Boston, MA - 2010 G37x Coupe

Hey all!

Just a quick introduction - my name is Blake and I picked up a new-to-me 2010 G37x coupe about 6 months back - easily one of my favorite cars thusfar! I'm new to the Infiniti world, but I've been an active member of car forums before, namely when I was the proud owner of my Mazda6 Wagon. I've had a variety of daily/project cars in the last few years, but I just recently parted with my Lexus SC400 to step up my game with the G. I've been lurking the forums here for a bit already and theres lots of great info so I figured I would officially join and share some of my own projects and musings with you all, thanks for the great community! I already have a few tasteful mods like Eibach springs, K&N Short Ram Intakes, IPL bumper, and Cusco Strut Tower Bar, but I've already started stock-piling parts for when it warms up again in the spring. Hoping to make some more power and add some stylistic touches while still keeping her drivable on the terrible roads in the area, haha...

Some things waiting to be installed:
- Stillen Gen 3 CAI
- Beluga Axle Back Exhaust
- 3M Black vinyl roof
- Rare NISMO A34 19" wheels

Likely will be picking up some HFCs and getting an UPREV tune shortly after, along with some coilovers (possibly) and more aesthetic mods eventually as well here are some teaser pics in the meantime and feel free to follow on Instagram! sir_pearlatv there as well





Sir Pearlatv himself


Also some pics of my old Mazda for throw-back's sake

What's that white powder on your G?

Hahaha, it's this thing that happens sometimes in the North - it's an indication you need to get up a bit earlier to warm up the car before going to work :P

Well, truthfully, it does happen way down here, too. This time it was sleet, but we can get several inches of snow.

Wow, just learned something about the web site. It replaced the photo of your car with mine in the thread list thumbnail since it was the last photo added to the thread. You should add another one to displace mine.

Haha good to know, I've been to TX a few times but never experienced anything beyond beautiful sunny days!

Here's another vanity shot with less white stuff:

Thanks a lot guys!
@Bostonreefer not much at all, previous owner babied her which is awesome, been thinking about a rubberized coating but not sure if it's worth it. I know my Mazda had some rear fender rust that plagued several models, do the G37's have trouble-areas to look out for?
