Brought home a new toy yesterday!

I sold my g50 just before thanksgiving. And i've been browsing craigslist like its my job for a new car or somesort.

And finally, i found this!

99 q45t black on black 173xxx on the clock

I love it! its so much more of a car than my g50 was. It rides perfect, i just need to have the front rotors turned. I cant wait to save up some money to start doing stuff to it... :biggthumpup:

Plans right away are valve cover gaskets, plugs, and fluid changes.

for the near future i plan on covering the head liner and pillars in suede, tinting the windows, and window visors.

and coilovers, wheels, and possibly an air on coil setup... :D

Not sure what kind of shape your G50 was in but I can't say I agree with the Y33 being more of a car than a G50. I have only driven 1st generation G50's and A Y33 Q. The G50 is more of a car

Having owned 3 G50's and 3 Y33's I'd choose a G50 (obvisouly bc I own one). But, having said that the interior design in the Y33 is a bit nicer (modern I guess) than the G50's available stateside. It does bother me a bit that Y33 interior is exactly the same as the QX4 though.

Cool car none the less... I liked mine a lot!

Nice pick up! looks like mine. Did you use a maf adaptor for the filter? I used a maxima adaptor on mine with a generic cone filter.
