Cragus Posted August 4, 2017 Posted August 4, 2017 Congrats on the purchase mate. You better man up and see this one through! Looks awesome - less is more with the G35, eh? Quote
LRF4N Posted August 4, 2017 Author Posted August 4, 2017 I will mate Yea gonna keep it clean but aggressive enough to turn heads Quote
ASemper Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 Wait is that a G35 or a 350gt? (I have seen some people put Infiniti badges on the Nissans). I know some gt owners can be very fussy about mixing the names up... Quote
ASemper Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 Also, I do like these a lot! Would happily replace the Z with 1 if I needed more seats. Quote

LRF4N Posted August 9, 2017 Author Posted August 9, 2017 In Japan they are badged Nissan skyline 350gt. In the states they are badged Infiniti G35 and are LHD Mine just has the Infiniti badge on it, I'll probably keep it to confuse everyone 1 Quote
LRF4N Posted October 27, 2017 Author Posted October 27, 2017 Finally arrived in sunny Scotland this week. Absolutely chuffed Bodywork is in great nick, just needs the eyebrows and rear badges removing, gearknob changed, and the headlights toned down. I’ll probably just disconnect the LEDs and keep the halos Suspenion is knocking badly so need that checked but most likely new coilovers Quote

coldel Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Very nice! Shame about suspension, did you know about that in advance? Quote
Keyser Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 looks good looking forwards to the build thread Quote
LRF4N Posted October 27, 2017 Author Posted October 27, 2017 Unfortunately not Colin. But with the upgrades like exhaust, and bigger brembos I’m not too bothered. At least I know what the suspension will be like once it’s fixed The wheels are 19s which is a bonus. They’ll be up for sale asap lol but I’ll get a bit more from selling them which will cover a chunk of the suspension cost Quote
HEADPHONES Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Congratulations on your new acquisition. Looking good. Always liked these. The fact you can say "I drive a G!" is just a bonus Quote
Whitevanman Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 very nice , you don't see many red one's....... Quote
LRF4N Posted October 27, 2017 Author Posted October 27, 2017 Yea I was originally thinking of going for a custom paint job when it was all silver and blue cars coming up. Had considered red but it took a while growing into me. Glad I went for this one Not sure of the yellow calipers on red, only Ferrari’s pull that off. Any suggestions on better colours? I’d like to see purple or orange on red Quote
Whitevanman Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 I don't think you can have enough black on these cars, most gt owners swap the front grill out 1st for a black grill and then go from there.... maybe black callipers with silver looking wheels or red callipers with black wheels would be my suggestion.... Quote
P15UL T Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Looking great buddy. I’m sure I’ll see it at some point 8) Quote
LRF4N Posted October 27, 2017 Author Posted October 27, 2017 Black accents look great on red, carbon does too Grille will be going black, possibly gloss black roof and depending what rear bumper and sides I go for hopefully some carbon touches Not a fan of black wheels so maybe black dishes with gunmetal centres. Need to decide on wheels This looks great Quote
Whitevanman Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 yeah that would be the look I would go for, I have only ever seen 2 red one's before and one of them had black roof and wing mirrors which looked good, I do have a soft spot for the 350gt I had mine for 4 1/2 years and it was a great car....

LRF4N Posted October 27, 2017 Author Posted October 27, 2017 Have you got a link to any threads of yours? Quote

coldel Posted October 28, 2017 Posted October 28, 2017 I have gone for black ony Celica but have not gone for black wheels, find that the black tends to hide how fabulous wheels look! Quote
