My 2004 Infiniti g35x-STS turbo

Here is my 2004 Infiniti G35x (AWD sedan). It has an STS rear mount turbo system and is the only AWD sedan with this exact setup. It was tuned at GRD Tuning in Illinois and was dyno'ed at 300 AWHP and 250 AWTQ.

I know it's not exactly VIP yet, but I'm moving it in that direction. In order to drop the front more to level the ride height of the car I have to figure out an alternate way to run the turbo piping but then I'll be dropping the front another inch or with stock 350z springs on the front.

It is loaded with pretty much every option available on these cars. Below are some of the options and modifications done to the car.

Options:
Bose Premium sound (CD changer and cassette)
Pop up Navigation
Heated front seats
Dual Power Front Seats
Memory Driver's Seat
Cruise Control
All power options
Homelink
Sunroof
Leather
Snow mode for AWD system

Modifications:
Brand new HID bulbs and fog light bulbs installed 1 month ago
12" Kenwood sub and amp already wired and installed in trunk
Brand new STS brand filter, pre-filter and shield
STS Rearmount Turbo System - Tuned on UpRev Osiris (ECU Flash - Includes 5 Fuel Maps)
400cc Injectors
Walbro 255
Tial blow off valve
19" G35 Coupe Sport Wheels (Ray's Forged)
Front License Plate Insert
G35 Coupe Springs
JDM Clear Corners w/White L.E.D.s
Megan Racing V2 Test Pipes
Motordyne 5/16 Copper Isothermal Plenum Spacer
Motordyne XYZ Pipe w/Straight Pipe Module
NGK IX Iridium Spark Plugs
RotorPros Slotted/Dimpled Front/Rear Rotors
Toyo Proxy 4 All Seasons 245/35/19
Probably more that I'm not remembering...

Oh yeah, a few things I've added since these pics.

A color matched lip spoiler for the trunk.

Garage door trim front bumper lip.

Blacked out all turbo piping under the car for a more clean, stealthy look.

I see you were talking about springs to lower it more.. Have you looked into Coilovers and/or Air Suspension for dropping it?

A lot of times people go with springs first and then decide they want to go even lower and end up getting Coils and if you calculate good springs + labor you're looking at basically a price range for a set of Coils.

Yeah, well, i already have the 350z springs from my 350z I used to have and they level the g35 coupe springs. I would love to do air suspension but my priorities are performance first and then looks. The cost of the air suspension would cover the cost of the tuner kit for my ecu and the boost controller plus gauges and more to make the car faster. I guess i'm trying to blend speed and VIP, :).
