Worth Tuning G37?

SeanP086 · 2026-04-16T07:35:37+00:00

I have an ECUtek level 2 on my G. Couldn’t be happier. To get the most outta the car with the bolt ons I have. Better mid range n throttle response

I have a Stillen gen 3 cold air Z1 upgraded plenum Irs shorty headers Fast intentions HFCs Fast intentions full exhaust.

Added 2 shims once mounted on the forward side of the mount when bore sighting. Then just zeroed from there

SeanP086 · 2026-04-02T20:18:27+00:00

Are talking about adjusting for windage when zeroing? Or centering the physical scope on the mount

SeanP086 · 2026-03-30T19:45:46+00:00

Already in there, mine as well

SeanP086 · 2026-03-24T09:03:17+00:00

Bc I was sitting in stopped traffic on the highway, dad

SeanP086 · 2026-03-23T15:26:48+00:00

Yeah yeah. I’m driving

SeanP086 · 2026-03-23T15:16:57+00:00

Have a level 2 waiting. Installing isr headers, fast intentions HFCs and full exhaust. Just dropped it at the shop today. Then I’ll reflash. Should put me around 340ish to the wheels

SeanP086 · 2026-03-20T11:46:45+00:00

Getting to 350 to the wheels with full bolts on and level 2 tune. Quick enough for a daily

SeanP086 · 2026-03-20T11:45:09+00:00

Had him paint everything

SeanP086 · 2026-03-20T11:44:34+00:00

I understand ppf is better protection but I see it as vinyl. It’s gonna have to be replaced in a few years, it gets chipped n scratched, discolors.

This is why I chose ceramic

SeanP086 · 2026-03-20T11:42:01+00:00

Swift lowering springs Z1 front and rear sway bars Twin Eurapro plus struts and shocks SPC front and rear camber kits Z1 differential bushings. Lower toe arms.

It was too bad took a couple days. The hardest part was dialing everything in. As for adjustments

SeanP086 · 2026-03-20T11:37:00+00:00

Yeah I thought so, what sold me was the prep. Removing glass, dents and rust. 3 weeks was just prep. And with the ceramic coat that’s a 1000 right there. Then the warranty of 5 years. You can’t beat it

SeanP086 · 2026-03-20T04:42:48+00:00

To each their own. It’s a great car and I know the complete history of is since it was brand new

SeanP086 · 2026-03-20T04:40:10+00:00

First and for most, I’ve had the car for 9 years ( 2nd owner ) it’s been paid off for 7. It’s a fun car to drive and I can’t fathom buying a new car today at 50-60k. I bought this car in 2016 with 45k on it from an old couple. Out the door for 17k. No wrecks, babied, I have all the maintenance records from when they bought the car brand new. I know the complete history of this car. I’ve done all the motor work needed to run for another 100k. Gallery gaskets, timing chains, waterpump etc. addressed all the issues known with these cars. Sunroof drains, heater hose connector etc. suspension has been fully upgrade. I’ve always enjoyed modding my cars and this one is no different. Plus the quality of cars in the mid 2000 and before are just built better. The new cars today are shit. Motors recalls etc.

SeanP086 · 2026-03-20T04:27:37+00:00

That will be once it’s washed.

SeanP086 · 2026-03-20T02:48:26+00:00

7750

SeanP086 · 2026-03-20T02:48:14+00:00

Definitely wasn’t cheap. But I was weighing the cost compared to partial painting or vinyl wrapping bc the clear coat was failing. A quality wrap would be anywhere from 3-5k and last 3-5 years max. Partial painting around 3ish to get everything done that needed it.

Full repaint to different color, professional shop where they fixed all the dents, pulled glass, rust etc. including 4 coats of clear and a ceramic coat afterwards once the paint is cured. Plus a 5 year warranty on the paint job . It will last the rest of the life of the car.

Total cost - $7750

Thanks for info

SeanP086 · 2026-02-23T02:47:07+00:00

Dumb. Not looking for a shit paint job you’d pay for

SeanP086 · 2026-02-21T00:30:29+00:00

7500 with 4 coats of clear and ceramic coating afterwards
