Traded the cobalt and picked this up. I only plan to keep it naturally aspirated and do basic bolt on’s and shoot for 13’s. ![http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e105/dv_platinum/g35/g35side.jpg](http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e105/dv_platinum/g35/g35side.jpg) ![http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e105/dv_platinum/g35/g35front.jpg](http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e105/dv_platinum/g35/g35front.jpg) ![http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e105/dv_platinum/g35/g35engine.jpg](http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e105/dv_platinum/g35/g35engine.jpg) ![http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e105/dv_platinum/g35/g35back.jpg](http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e105/dv_platinum/g35/g35back.jpg) ---

Very nice upgrade! It doesn’t take much to get them into the 13s. My Dad has a 6mt sedan that was doing 14.0s consistently with really easy launches and it only has a Borla cat-back, injen cai, and a plenum spacer. I know it would be 13.8s if launched properly. The coupe is only marginally heavier than the sedan. I thought the coupes with the Ray’s wheels all had Brembo brakes but it doesn’t look like your has them. ---

^^ I wouldn’t say ‘one of the best sounding cars’, but I do think they sound good for a V6, and I’m not really an import fan. They make great daily drivers, but not really race cars IMO. G35s are sweet cars regardless. ---
