Subscribed. Hopefully the parts being made are interchangeable with the G35 sedan.

I asked and Tanabe believes the sedan has a longer wheel base so it may or may not work, that's yet to be tested. Thank you for all of your questions I will try to provide the best information I have.

Is the down pipe the same thing as the mid pipe?

I actually made an error its a "mid pipe" inbetween exhust and y pipe. The y pipe attaches to cat and mid pipe, and mid pipe connects to the axleback. I hope this clears things up. Sorry for my mistake

You'll be surprised... I'm at priuschat forum and there are people who put springs and other stuff on their car. And there's already people wanting the coilovers.
