Painting the grille... $120 out the door

And since my car is RWD with quite a good sport suspension already, I'm not expecting much of anything out of the FSTB other than engine bling. So you're right, they're both appearance mods.

Hey CJ, on the off chance you're awake and viewing this thread get ready to hold down the fort. Some of the nastiest thunderstorms I have ever seen in my life are headed your way.

On that subject my car is outside and there was serious hail with this. I'm dreading going outside to look at it when it gets light out.

There's this thing called FB these days

And I'm trying again on Monday btw, it's just not worth the extra $50 since no1 else is paying for this dyno to do it somewhere else earlier.

First episode of Top Gear 2007, and James May drives a Veyron up to 250 mph. I was on the edge of my seat. It was like a NASA rocket launch. Love that show.

OAN, (and hypothetically speaking) you would be amazed how easily the G37 can climb into triple digits on the highway.

I can only assume as well, never having driven any 07 or newer Z up to those speeds.

Sometimes if you're watching the tach, you forget to notice what the speedometer is doing, and you get one of those Holy **** moments. That may or may not have happened to me this morning.

Even though the motors and chassis are different, they're relatively the same in speed, so your car = 07 G35 Sedan 6mt in speed, the 3.7's extra power just makes up for it's extra weight, along w/ the extra weight of the newer vehicles.

The 3.7 is a helluva more fun to drive tho.... tq is flat as fckkkk

sounds like a daily thing with my 5.5... before slowing down to get off the exit i would look down at the speedometer and realize i was going 140+ on an avg cruise on the hwy its 100-120mph
