Hey guys my name is tyler, i live in Ilion ny and dont get out to albany very much unless passing through to lebanon valley or albany speed shop. i started out my car scene in a 94 mustang GT convertible, 5spd, with some basic bolt ons…loved it as a kid, then i ended up just wanting a new car and purchased a 05 srt-4 off the lot and modded the shit out of that for a while until i got tired of it. I then bought a 03 350z touring 6mt and strapped a vortech supercharger on it and some other goodies. This is where i started to love the track and lebanon valley. i ended up running 11’s with the Z on just 9.5 psi for a good year or so then decided to move on. I parted it out and sold the car and bought a 07 mustang GT/CS and hated it pretty much the whole time. Sold it and now im rocking a 04 G35 coupe 6mt with just a few bolt ons (currently for sale) and i daily my 05 black jeep grand cherokee. i love the Z’s and G’s and the VQ and am now hooked for life on them. Im sure ive seen some of you guys at lebanon with my z…anyway look forward to some meet ups.

I had a 04 G35 coupe 5at. Love the VQ cars but traded in. I was on the fence about boosting it or trading it. Feel I made the right choice but miss it time to time

looks like u made a good choice…those new evo’s are pretty nice and pretty practical too…plenty of potential on them as well

my Z made 425whp/355ft. lbs. on 9.5 psi with the vortech and ran 11.78@118 for its best…still had a little more in it with better tires and better driving but not bad for stock block stock internals and all with just a measly little vortech…ran consistently 11.7’s to 11.9’s…i want to boost the G so bad but just had a baby and just cant do it right now…

That’s good numbers. Stock internals are a hit or miss at that HP. I would do the momentum turbo kit if I still had it but to much $$ I feel for the supporting mods/tune/ etc. And yea I love the evo. Much more potential IMO

ya def. held up and surprised me…momentum actually went out of business for some reason so those kits are far and few now…was def. a nice quality kit though with alot of R&D testing…
and yes the evo is already turbo so thats a great start and AWD so ya cant go wrong performance wise at all…have you done alot to it?

illion gorge? been meaning to get out there on the bike

love the gorge…i live about 5mns. away

Welcome and I can tell you have about 100 or more braincells still popping, which is leaps and bounds better than most here :skid so maybe you will stick around and spice the place up a bit.

pics or vids of the past whips. Even the through back GT. Its allways fun looking back and saying “WTF was I thinking”, lord knows I did the same thing!

lol…thanks man…ill try and get some pics together to post up of my past cars…im at work right now so dont have them all available…yes at work sitting on the internet :eek3…gotta love a desk job…

couple of shitty cell pics of the stang before it was finished and lowered and the crappy chrome grill taken off and mirror covers, etc…all i have here pulled off my facebook

dont have any pics of my SRT, or old stang here, ive also had a fully polished and powdercoated show bike R6, a 07 gsxr-750, numerous wheelers and dirtbikes and toys…ill maybe find old pics of everything later and post up

I wouldnt have the slightest inclination of what thats like

:ninja

cars all look great man!!!

lol…sometimes i wish i didnt…

thanks

welcome to the forum

I’ll make a list of things I’ve don’t to the evo when I’m on a comp. Your G needs some side skirts. And I have a set of BNIB strafe auto impul sides. Please buy them

thanks

lol…strafe the worst company ever to exist that is now out of commission and ripped so many people off including myself, hate even saying the name, great products horrible business…banned from my350z and g35driver etc…

sorry i dont do skirts and such though and if i did id need a new front and rear…If i did do a kit though id do nismo front, impul sides and chargespeed rear. do you have them for sale on driver? should sell there

Didn’t even know that about strafe. Sucks because they do make great products. I live there cf trunk. I’m never on driver or my350z anymore. I was gonna do the inven front with impul sides. Best combo IMO.

Welcome to the forum, from a former owner of a G35 and a couple other decent Nissans.

i def. like that front also…i would only go with that or the nismo front…ya if ur ever lookin for good reading material look up strafe and read the horror stories posted on g35driver…they still have a bunch of outstanding orders and stuff…changed their name then also got banned under that name…big mess…
