And that's about how my day began... Got up this morning and get my day going. Just some work online to do today. Pretty slow day and I'm working from home. I'm chillin on the sofa and I look at my front door and all I see is brown... a big ***** brown truck. Immediately a smile... My lovely UPS lady come to visit. I chill on the sofa like I have no clue. I don't want to look like a little boy at Christmas. She knocks and I go to the door. She's not HOT but she's cute... One of the best actual UPS ladies there is. I sign for my packages, give her a hug and kiss (okay not really), and I take my toys and she drives off.

I run to get my knife to open up the boxes... Now I'm like a little boy at Christmas. Why? I don't know. I know what is inside. Lol.

Well here's what the lady in brown brought me... :jump40:

Ummm.. Yeah. Touchy subject. I don't think it got picked up.

I'm gonna drop my car off around 9 ish and i think it'll take about 4 hrs or so for everything, but I don't normally leave until Sharif escorts me out. :eek2:

I don't think the Sweetwater keg is very portable.

Interesting how J can find time to go to Forged, but can run the errands I need him to do...

i think the next mod on the green machine should be a kegarator in the trunk that has a tap on the trunk lid

KW is German.. Yuppers. Typically the drop ship directly from the warehouses in Germany, however, I got lucky and HPA had a set here in the US.

Zzzzzzzz... Tired. Long day already.

Coilovers and Camber Kit are on. Looks great. I set it pretty low. Just need that alignment (tomorrow) to get everything back in spec to be able to see the full potential.

Hopefully the tires will last longer now that you have a camber kit...

congrats on the install man. cant wait to see the car with the new drop. how long were your old tires lasting you? t1-r's right?

blackjack
01-09-2009, 08:43 PM
I'll get some pics up tomorrow! Alignment went okay. Since I've nearly slammed the car, if I wanna run this low, I'm gonna need a kit for the front. Problem with that is we don't have vendor that has released them for the G37 yet.

congrats on the install man. cant wait to see the car with the new drop. how long were your old tires lasting you? t1-r's right?

Rears lasted 10k but I think I could have gone another 1k, but went ahead and replaced them anyways. I think the main culprit was ZDayz Tail of the Dragon runs and a North Georgia Mountain run that really ate them up though.

Which variant KW's did you get?

w0ady
01-09-2009, 09:09 PM
true i used to average 15k on my g35 so im looking for the same. i was going to try the yoko s.drives but the rears are on back order so im throwing on nitto invos. just wanted to try something different from the toyos. i put like 20k miles in a year though so i need something that lasts.

what was your camber/toe like with the h-techs? im hoping i can get pretty close to spec with the eibachs.

01-09-2009, 09:09 PM

V3. Only KWs available for G37 righ now.
