Default My 5spd Infiniti J30

Here are a few pics and some info on my car.

I had a 1994 Infiniti J30 and after an incident in the mountains of north GA it ended up having some frame damage. It was the first car that I did a manual swap on so a lot of the work on it was not as good since I learned with it. All the J30s USDM and JDM did not have a manual option. All the USDM J30s have the VG30DE like the 300zx z32. JDM J30s had a VH41DE option available. February of last year my Auto trans died and I decided (with the push of a few friends) to do a manual swap into my car.

This second time around let me get a better chassis and a better color that I will admit looks a lot better than my gold one. Most of the mods done to my car are done with a lot of research to see what will fit onto the car. There is basically no after market parts available for this car at all in the USDM market.
