Just a few more pics. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v289/TimTaylor75/G35%20Wheels/DSC00615.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v289/TimTaylor75/G35%20Wheels/DSC00616.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v289/TimTaylor75/G35%20Wheels/DSC00618.jpg

Thanks man. A little bit of work, but it's worth it and it's saving me a nice chunk in having them done. Plus when they're in this condition, you can get them for a really good deal to begin with. The Brembo's...I think they were just a knock off version.

Making some progress on the wheels.

There was a bit of damage in the lug holes as well. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v289/TimTaylor75/G35%20Wheels/DSC00602.jpg Trusty DeWalt with dremel attachment http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v289/TimTaylor75/G35%20Wheels/DSC00604.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v289/TimTaylor75/G35%20Wheels/DSC00605.jpg 2nd Coat: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v289/TimTaylor75/G35%20Wheels/DSC00609.jpg 3rd Coat: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v289/TimTaylor75/G35%20Wheels/DSC00613.jpg

You have a PM.

I like that the assumption is made that people who do this type of manual labor without a doubt, need dental work.

Yeah, I'd be interested in getting the mirror only. Friday would be the earliest I could come look at it/pick it up. Is the title available?

I'm pretty interested, but not so much in need of the sissy bar.

Shiny is so sexy. (fix your last link in post 2)

Na, those were the 18's that I just sold, but good memory about the story. Here are the old 19's. Axis Se7en Mods http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v289/TimTaylor75/Niagara%20Falls/DSCN1941.jpg

Does the electric start still work or do you know?

The car had a good stance before when I had 19's on it, but they were just way too heavy. Really hurt any performance that this car does have. Those were 26 lbs each, these G35 wheels are 19 lbs each.

A lot of guys clear out the healights, but I'm too much of a wuss to put them in the oven. I used to have a crappy aftermarket grille and I kinda got over that look. And for strike three, I shaved off the trunk emblems years ago I have thought about adding the anniversary front lip, but it's not really anything I'm too interested in doing now.

The ride height won't be too much different than it is now (outside the fact that I'm riding on blown struts), but having the ability to make adjustments to the ride is going to be nice. Here's the new tires: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v289/TimTaylor75/G35%20Wheels/DSC00496.jpg

Steve...yeah, under the paint, Nissan uses a black base coat which gives off the darker paint appearance. I sanded through it a few times I'm still looking for another set of rear wheels since these are a staggered setup 19x8 fronts & 19x8.5 rears. I'd like to run 8.5's all around, but that is still my search.

This isn't an engine build thread or anything like that, but it is to show what items I've been working on recently. I get bored with wheels pretty quickly so I'll soon be installing my 5th set of wheels on this car which are the 19" Rays forged wheels from the G35 coupe with 245/35/19 General Exclaim UHP's. I sold my 18" Enkei Rp02's to Gregg aka tripleGmax who installed him on his civic. I picked these up in Urbana and all four of them had some form of curb rash or rock chips throughout the wheel. Two of the tires were damn near completely bald and someone decided to take a grinding wheel to the inside portion to remove the old weights. During the scuffing up phase: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v289/TimTaylor75/G35%20Wheels/DSC00557.jpg Here you can see where the repairs began on the damaged areas: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v289/TimTaylor75/G35%20Wheels/DSC00561.jpg 3 of them still have a few spots that I'm working on, but one is now primered and ready for paint. I will painting them to match the original color, so no...don't worry, I'm not going for the murdered out look. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v289/TimTaylor75/G35%20Wheels/DSC00588.jpg Along with installing the new wheels & tires, I will be doing quite a major install this Saturday with 3G's help installing a new full suspension since my current setup has at least 3 struts that are blown. This will be suspension setup #3 since I've owned the car and this time around I went with quality parts. I've also purchased new top hats, strut bearings/mounts as well as new front sway bar end links which will aid in keeping the car tracking better. Tokico 5-way Illumina Struts / H&R Sport Springs http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v289/TimTaylor75/Maxima/0316091834.jpg Anyone that has owned a 5th or 5.5th generation Maxima knows that the brakes are horrible on these cars and that the rotors are very prone to warping in a short amount of time. I've gone through the OEM setup, a set of iRotors cross-drilled & slotted rotors as well as Brembo Blanks and they all last right around 30-35k miles before the shaking symptoms return. Knowing this, I've decided to go to a larger setup in using the calipers & rotors from the 6th generation (2004-2008) Maxima which provides a drastically increase level of braking performance and reliability. Picked up a set of 2007 rotors and calipers from a fellow member of Maxima.org from Atlanta with only 18k miles. Had the rotors turned and have cleaned up the calipers prior to installing Saturday along with the suspension.
