"Scarlett" - 6MT Sedan True Unicorn in Malbec Black
Ok so this is long over due. Everyone meet "Scarlett" and yes this is after Scarlett Johansson!
Here's a quick link to my previous build thread, I came from a 2010 G37S 7AT Sedan into a 2013 6MT Sedan.

For those of you who may not know or realize, this is now updated to 1 of 4 ONLY 6MT Malbec Black sedan I've ever seen or know about. To me its truly a one of a kind.
So to make a long story short, in owning my 7AT, I looked all the time for a 6MT sedan and happened to come across one way back when however the deal could never come to terms and I proceeded to mod the 7AT. Well I use to look every now and then online for 6mt sedans just to see what was out as I knew alot of the lease's would be returned from 2015-2016. I came across this rare bird online at a dealership up in Birmingham, AL. Just so happened that my younger brother was in the market for a car and has been a G lover for as long as I owned mine. After talking to the wife and getting her blessing "somewhat" I sold the 7AT to my bro at cost with a few goodies to start him off and bought a 1 way ticket to Birmingham after speaking with a sales rep for nearly 2 weeks. Got off the plane, dealership sent a driver to pick me and the rest is history.
Got to get to know Scarlett a little better on the drive home and truly enjoyed having 3 pedals again.
Parts that I brought over from the 7AT.
Stillen CBE
Velgen VMB7 rims/tires
Dual 12" Vibrant Resonators
Philips headligh bulbs
Interior/exterior 6k LED bulbs
GTR clear lenses
GTR start button
That may be about it.
I wanted to mod a little different this go around and wanted to go more JDM build quality.

Here is the Zspec engine dress up kit. I can't stress enough of how quality this entire kit is. I received over 150 pieces for literally EVERYTHING in the engine bay and the cost is incredible cheap compared to everywhere else imo. Pictures do not do them justice
Everything is packed individually and labeled per the part in the bay it goes. Yes in the pics I hadalr Andy changed out my old stock bolts as you can see them in the bags but a good comparison
Engine after installing cai, fstb, and dress up bolts
Random pic prior to front lip install or rear oem spoiler

thank you so much for proving the front lip fits in the car. I just ordered one today and am picking it up Monday.
gorgeous car man with some really nice parts. I see JAP got some new stuff in stock but they haven't had Hebi's in stock forever so where did you find that one?
Loving it already! definitely subscribed. :-)
