Hey folks, got a new car. For those of you that know me, you know I had a 2007 M35x for the last 5 years. A week or so ago, I traded that in for a lightly used M56x. Went from a 275hp V6 (5AT) to a 420hp V8 (7AT). Thing is bananas.
This thread will be a running log of what I do to the car.
My old M35x:

Overall plans for the new car:
-
Suspension (coilovers)
-
Upgraded lighting (better D2S bulbs, LED conversion, etc.)
-
Tint (20% all around and 50% front windshield)
-
UpRev Tune
-
Upgraded wheels (kept my 19’s from the first M - need to go 20" on this one)
-
Possibly a BBK (Akebono - stock from some other Infiniti)
