Nice rides! Looks like that G35 has a kenstyle rear bumper, sides, Gialla Grill and Lip. Both looks great! Enjoy your new ride.

Thanks! You are correct on the rear and sides...however the front llip and grill are from Data Systems.

I am enjoying my new Evo a lot guys...but i have one problem --- Im ADDICTED to smashing the gas, listening to the turbo spool, then letting off to hear the BOV blow! hahahaha

@ that lip! Nice g, don't really like the rear bumper, but the tv's in the headrest are hot!

Maaaan, that TB IX looks beautiful, but why did you choose that color? Im pretty sure you know black is gonna be one hell of a job to keep clean.

You shouldn't be able to hear the BOV, unless its not stock.

Oh yea, very nice G35..........I've always wanted one but decided to get the Evo 9 MR instead.

Thanks a lot for the nice comments on the G and the Evo.

The G35 is def a "classier" car that impresses a lot more than the Evo. However, after driving that for 2 years, i grew tired of driving a car that looked good to others and i wanted a car that was good for the driver!

I wanted more power (the G was a lil sluggish), better control (G is a heavy "GT" car), and of course, AWD for the weather here in PA.

Im not really concerned what people think about my car, what girls think (sorta haha), and not trying to prove im a "baller." Been there - done that. I decided to get the EVO because ive always wanted a Turbo car that goes like MAD and handles like a champ. I am very happy with the car thus far.

The TVs in the G were cool - but like someone said above, very impractical and rarely "used". Dont look for any TVs in the Evo.

My plans are too improve the things that the EVO is already good at - and add some creature comforts too. Id like to do a Navigation system, Sat Radio, and nice CD/DVD player double din. Then ill prally do a small sub to give the system a much needed "kick". After that, its all performance.

Id like to improve the brakes first. The brakes feel "soft" and stopping distance isnt what it should be for a car with this much power. After they are up to par, i will do some minor suspension to dial the car in even more. Prally a nice set of coilovers, sways, and perhaps chasis braces. After these area's are done, and i feel totally comfortable with RIPPING the car at its current power level, ill prally crank up the power with MBC, TBE, intake, fuel pump, cams, o2 sensor, BOV, and other small stuff. Id love to hit the 400awhp mark at that point.

Thanks for all the comments guys and feel free to keep em coming! I am enjoying EVOM a lot!

Take care,

TripleBlack9SE

give the brakes a bit of time to break in. They feel really weak at first, but after they break in, they're pretty good. They still feel a tiny bit mushy, but some ss brake lines will make them feel better. Also, even though they feel a bit "weak", they're not, they've always been able to stop when I needed them to.
