Hola Guys

First post, holler back !


So after having a rough December, I decided to stop dumping money on a sitting in the garage midori green Honda hatchback and just save up while concentrating on school, work, and most importantly the wife at home.....and I sh*t you not my damn 2003 liberty started doing the Chrysler death dance thus killing the radiator fan and leaving me stranded on the side of the road... Thankfully it was not 120F or else I would have sipped my own **** like Bear Grylls....... Anyway, as soon as I got the jeep fixed it was time to set it on fire and pick something new and a lil more exciting than the jeep.... So I picked up this guy:




2008 G37S 6MT with 17k miles...........have very light plans for it in the future but nothing excessive.

JPUsa/Visage Kit
Impul Rear Spoiler
HKS Hipermax LS Coils
19x9[F], 19x10[R]Wedsport SA55M(Gunmetal)
Ark (GRiP) Performance Exhaust


The one thing that I the happiest is that I actually have a car that I can drive to the local meets instead of having one in millions of pieces sitting in the garage just sucking out cash. The wife is not to thrilled with the 6 speed tranny but she loves that she gets her own A/C ****....

Look towards making many future friends here !

Ah thank you sir ! Dammit I had a long update here with my experiences and this forum software just logged me off and I lost the updates. Anyways cliffs here after a week of ownership.


Cons: Have the bubble seat issue not a big deal, as I paid about mid 20's for the car after trading in the jeep. The faux aluminum handles being scratched inside as well as the door handles outside, just what you would expect on a place where everyone places the hand. Has tiny scratches on the exterior which can be buffed out but again if you want to be **** which unfortunately I am. Interior has little storage space but that's expected.

Pros: Beautiful car on both the interior and exterior. Loving the rear wheel drive, although the only additional modification other than what I listed on that wish list above is to cover that traction control button so I never disable it, because is a beast to me, some people might complain about the 270sqft/lb of torque, it's enough to keep my butt dyno happy.


Very easy car to get yourself acquainted with in a very short span, doesn't make you feel like an absolute stranger after the 4th/5th day.







Son of a ***** I got logged off again.....myg37....

Welcome on board!

I recommend 20" wheels though instead of 19", they look much better
