Got the G here in dubai two weeks back :)

Took some test drives, car feels stronger for sure then my current one, but I felt gearbox slightly rough though maybe still breaking in or standing for a while now.

Loving the interior, the aluminium is a bit different then the previous one, not marked but plain which feel better. Wont be there for long as eventually will change to CF.

KaienZ34 12-30-2011 11:56 PM

I want the GS4's also, but in the 19's and i'll be getting them from ravespec too. What disk did you go with on these and your Z? The O-disk A-disk or R-disk??

R front and O at the back

chuckd05 12-31-2011 03:05 AM

Very nice ! Those g37 sedans are very classy and the drop off in performance from the Z is MUCH less than some would imagine ...

roplusbee 12-31-2011 04:55 AM

Awesome! I can't see the pix because I am on my work pc. I am imagining a sick G though............

simota1 12-31-2011 05:38 AM

FastPaced 01-03-2012 01:29 PM

FastPaced 01-05-2012 05:47 PM

Your avatar is pretty sick Kaizen...........

docaam 05-12-2012 01:23 AM

Getting the project work done, coming out nice.

Carbonsignal decided to show some love for the Gs now :tup:

As per plan will go for front lip, custom front grill, full rear diffuser, duckbill rear spoiler and side blades all made by Carbonsignal.

As CS will be using my car so they will make three lips in one go and then I will choose which one to go with.

This is the first version which I saw last week , supposedly second is done by now as well will try to take pictures next week.

Thanks fellas, modding at full swing now

Ok got some pics of the two lips

this is more subtle one

http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/...ork/Slide3.jpg

There is a slight aggressiveness in this
http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/...ork/Slide5.jpg
http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/...ork/Slide6.jpg

Waiting for the last one which is more like Access Evolution lip with CS

b1adesofcha0s 05-13-2012 10:23 AM

Looks great! :tup:

KaienZ34 05-13-2012 11:21 AM

So far i like the 2nd one the best.

docaam 05-15-2012 12:44 AM

Updates

Diffuser work hasnt been done that much, might check today, but im really digging it now

Still a bit undecided to go for four fins or three or even two. They will round the edges where the exhuast openings are and might soften down the lines along the whole diffuser

http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/...k/IMG_0058.jpg
http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/...k/IMG_0059.jpg
http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/...k/IMG_0061.jpg


Type 1 lip seems to be done, looks subtle and aggressive at different angles.

http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/...k/IMG_0064.jpg
http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/...k/IMG_0065.jpg
http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/...k/IMG_0066.jpg
http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/...k/IMG_0067.jpg

Type 2 is the one I like more, will look good once done in carbon fiber.

http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/...k/IMG_0071.jpg
http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/...k/IMG_0073.jpg

Any suggestions?

KaienZ34 05-15-2012 08:38 AM

Love the 2nd lip......I would do like you said on the diffuser and soften down the lines and i'd leave all the fins on like it is in the pic. Once they shave it all down some i think i will look smoken hot.

:iagree: :tup:

chuckd05 05-15-2012 11:09 PM

I like lip 1 and think diffuser needs to be toned down a not as well. Maybe go with 3 fins too. But looks great.

docaam 05-17-2012 03:29 PM

Diffuser will be toned down a lot and yes it would be three find but sharper fins lol

Type 2 Lip is complete kind off just some minor adjustments needed to be done.

Took the car off the jacks and some pics were taken, looks really nice in person.

In some of the pictures car is a bit lowered from front like on a slope and it managed easily :)
