I threw on Nismo Springs yesterday after doing sway bars the week prior. Love the stiffness. Today paint prep/sanding down Abekonos for the Z and touching up a curb mark on my G37.

I removed the trunk lid ballast weight-damper (used the DIY section for instructions) and the spare tire; I had to be a bit creative since the car has a Bose subwoofer.

Spare tire weighs ~34 lbs and the trunk lid ballast weight-damper weighs ~3 lbs. Total weight removed was 37 lbs.

Happy New Year
Went in for a touch up on my tune and got an extra 5 whp. Also got much better response for acceleration in 3rd and 4th. Accelerates like a completely different and new car. Very happy with JTran in Houston.

passed smog check..

right, not exciting like u all.. but at least it's done and the girl who did the test did not break the seat this time nor put scratches in the a-pillar. she was actually pretty careful with my car as i watched.
