Member Rides Thread: READ FIRST POST BEFORE POSTING!
Here are the rules:
No Replies just to say "nice car" or "looks good!" If you need to ask a question about a certain part or wheel type or something like that, please try a PM first. If yo udon't have the 15 posts needed to make a new post or a PM, please be patient. I want for this to be a resource of PICTURES and IMAGES.
No flaming.
You MAY post new pics after you make changes, add parts, etc. When you post the pics, please try to have th ecar clean and the image in focus. I don't want double posts because there was something wrong with the old picture.
Please, PLEASE try to keep the links current. I will delete any red "X" pics. I will try to notify you first, but lets try to keep this clean.
You MAY (and are actually encouraged to) list wheel type, size, body mods, tint percentage, spring and strut combo, etc. Make it so that those people who DO search CAN find your car and/or mods.
Please do not post huge pic files. Resize them, rehost them, crop them, whatever you have to do to keep them in the confines of the org's standard forum width.
Lastly, this, like the n00bie thread, will only stay open as long as we feel like maintaining it. If it becomes a problem, it will be locked and/or deleted.
Please try to play nice. We don't have to do this, but I thought it over and it seems like a cool idea.
My 1997 I30t just prior to destruction. Specs: 15x7 BBS Q45a rims with Falken Ziex Ze-512 tires in 225/60/15. Tein H-Tech springs on Illumina rears and AGX fronts. No body mods other than the side marker lights and cleared tail lights. 35% tint.
My I30, early on. Specs: 16x7 Mille Miglia MM-11^2 rims with 225/50/16 Sumitomo HTR+ tires. Intrax springs on AGX all around. No body mods other than the marker lights and clear taillights. 35% tint. It is not just the picture angle- on the Intrax, the rear looked like it was sagging in person as well. it really was NOT, but it looked like it.
More pics available on my CarDomain homepage. Lots of minor interior mods and upgrades.
Here is a shot of the AE Maxima shift knob. The 5spd "logo" is painted on though and it started to rub off after a year, so I put on a new A32 all leather shift knob.
Chrome gauge rings. Sycefiro can source these. I think CE might still sell them too.
Custom Interiors two tone leather. Upholtsered this on myself. Not hard at all.

17X7.5 Rays Engineering Gram Lights wheels. These wheels are light for their size, only 17lbs.
Rubber is Yokohama AVS 235/45 R17. Grips like crazy. Burn outs have hardly any squeal to them, yet solid rubber is left through the intersection. Definitely NOT loosing traction with these tires.
Cefiro one piece headlights and grill. Hate to say it, but yes, its JDM yo!
Lowered ride height with CE springs and 5 way adjustable Tokico Illumina struts. Drop is 1.5 inch front and 1.3 inch rear.
Window tint is 15%. Illegal, but I've never had a problem. Even when pulled over.
Shaved rear with G35 symbol. Muffler is Dynomax turbo with my choice of tip. It needs to be tucked.
I30 limited kick plates. Direct fit. Front and Rear.
I30 Trunk mat. Direct fit.
Engine with Stillen intake, FSTB, variable intake manifold, Optima Red battery, Nismo oil and Radiator caps. I added the chrome Infiniti symbol to the engine cover.
The old gold one I wrecked. T-boned old lady that pulled out in front of me. The round mark you see was where her front tire hit:
One week later, I had rims on the new one.
Painted headlights and new tint
spoiler I added on, along with the dynomax muffler w/ tips
Most recent as of late October:
14% Tint all around
18" American Racing Casino rims wrapped w/ Khumo Ecsta ASX 225/45/18's.
Cleared Corners and Side Markers
Debadged the "I30"
Custom Painted Headlight and Foglight Assemblies
Color-matched Brake Calipers
Added factory-style spoiler
I35 grille
Dynomax Superturbo Muffler
H&R Drop: 1.4 front, 1.3 rear
I30 Speed. I give you MAD props. That's exactly what i want my car to look like. Heres my car so far. No pics with the exhaust or clear tails but the front for the most part. I've got 3 1/2 percent tint on the front 5 in the back and 20 on the back window with a 5 eyebrow. The legal tint here is 35 percent I got brand new Goodyear Assurance Triple Treads.

Here is my 2002 I35. I got her about a month ago with 40,000 on the dot. So far I have added Hawk HPS pads, cross-drilled brembo rotors, and 20% Titanium tint.
Lee135, Nice ride!
Needs to be cleaned, front end painted, and cefiros.....but here it is.....
The grill is made by 'ghetto kustomz' and consists of an i30 outer ring, i35 slats, and now an even bigger G35 emblem!
The chrome logo on the steering wheel is a slightly modified I30 grill emblem super-glued in place.
Stillen V2 supercharger, 3.33 pulley, reclocked blower and 3 inch charge pipe, vortech bypass valve, DW 555's, Mevi, 300zx maf, budget y and resonated b pipe, dynomax super turbo muffler.
Here's a couple of pics of mine...it's a 2001 I30 Luxury, bought it last August with 61K and change on it to replace my first car which was a 1995 G20t. It's Titanium Silver over Latte leather (at least that's what the Infiniti dealer told me it's called) and currently 100% stock.
