| wow.. over 9k posts since my last login.. I picked up a "luxury" car about 2 months ago for my dates and just to have a nicer "beater" never thought i'd like it so much... fell in love with it.. but of course.. nothing compares to a Z :) Infiniti M45 Sport.. 4.5 V8 It has plenty of torque.. very fun to drive!
I got the windows tinted @ 30% and the front windshield at 90% (UV protectant, keeps heat down) 
Picked up some Continental DWS 245/30/22 tires and some clean looking wheels.. ACE Mesh 7 (22x9 +38) 
In case anyone ever wondered.. yes 4 of them fit inside of the rear of an M45.. its got plenty of room inside this thing!
I couldn't stand how the front sat a little higher than back on the stock suspension.. So I decided to throw some Eibach Pro-line springs and full Eibach/SPC adjustable front and rear camber arms, New kyb GR2 shocks and hardware..
Perfect drop IMO.. And the tire isn't stretched as nearly as it looks.. its just that the sidewall is small.. makes it look more aggressive than it is.. Its a 245/30 on a 9" wide wheel... not stretched at all. 
Decided I couldn't stand how small the stock brakes looked and also how they seemed a little weak on a big car like this..
So I called Coz and he hooked me up with Akebono front/rear G37 Sport calipers and Stoptech 14" sport rotors, Posi quiet pads etc.. 
Sent them out to "mike the powdercoater" to get them custom candy apple red .. pics really don't do justice.. they are beautiful.. semi dark red.. looks classy.. There is a slight metallic/pearl.. Look almost like anodized red.. 
Me detailing the car..
LED tag light and misc bulbs here and there.. Bad thing is.. I had to run a 5mm spacer to clear my front wheels.. which puts the wheel out past the fender a tad.. a little too close for comfort.. so I may sell the akebono fronts and do something custom.. Plus im' not really happy how small 14" rotors look behind 22" wheels (ricey I know.. but its a pet peeve of mine) I have some 8 piston brembo calipers I think I will put on the M45 and use a custom 15.5" rotor up front.. should be a nice setup. 395x36mm thick rotor. Figured I would pop in... and obviously have gotten bitten by the Z bug again.. whichh is why im logged in here again :) the weather has cooled off here so i'll be spending much more time out in the shop with the 2+2 TT build :) Picked up Ferrea 1mm oversize valves and just need to grab some dual coil and titanium retainer so I can begin the head build
