Lizzette...
Well after a few month I wanted to share the story how I got this car. Currently I am in school at Cal Baptist Univercity. Im in a double major General Engineering and Business.I am also in the Army Reserves. I wasnt planning on getting a car. I had my car sponsered by Ait racing. It was a 2008 Nissan Altima 3.5
http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y84...nluv/remix.jpg I got bored of the altima in January of this Year and I bought Lizzette. The car was amazing...stock. I told myself that I would't get any aftermarker parts for this car. The car went from: http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y84...v/71c4eb4a.jpg to this:http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y84...enluv/sgow.jpg This car is a work in progress. I named the car Lizzette. All of my cars are girls lol. To me the best feature of Lizzette is : http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y84...uv/phatass.jpg Sorry I just love a big a$$ lol This car is always a work in project. The wheels were also a hard choice. But after about a few months of waiting I got my new rims. I had my rims for about 2 months now. Venaci rims are hott damn. I was considering volk but everyone has volk. Venaci ..customs wheels custom setups. I love it. The day I got my wheels installed: http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y84...v/4bb0a0cc.jpg Hard to work on the car while I am in school and in the reserves. I am leaving for more training in July 26-August 16. |
The springs that I went with the Eibach. There are ok but I was a stiffer ride lol...thats what she said hahah
And then I heard about Fast Intentions. I heard the exhaust and I feel in love. I was contemplating berk but I was like screw it ..the customer service of F.I. was nice change for people just trying to sell you an exhaust. I went with the 12 inch res with the carbon fiber exhasut. No regrets. Great product. Next was the intake. Still havent choosen to go with stillen or injen. Then ...all of a sudden AEM came out with there intake. http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y84...v/b4d2f0ee.jpg love the gains. No regrets yet! Then came the stillen bumper. http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y84...v/4056f075.jpg Again stillen bumper fit perfect until there was a little gap. So I went to stillen and talked to Max about the issue and then Steve came out to talk about the issue with me. Very nice guy. They fixed the issue something really minor that my body shop didnt take off. They also installed my pully at the same time. Great service from stillen. |
Very nice man!
|
I also have the seibon engine cover. It will be for sale soon. I recently purchased the nismo rear bumper, carbon fiber side skirts and nismo carbon fiber wing. I also have my original real diffuser. What I did was candied the diffuser. Same color on the car, I just colored it on the diffuser. It came out really really good:
http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y84...v/95fbf3c4.jpg. I am going to do the same process with the side skirts and the wing. Thats it for now until I order the supercharger or tt kit. I was trying to have everything done by Spocom...but not so sure. |
Looks very clean, but your pic quality needs attention.
Lizzette is looking sweet though. |
Very mice dude!!!

love your wheels! do you mind sharing the specs?
|
venaci spirits. 20x9.5 front rear 20x11
|
If you had a chance to redo it again, would you go with Eibach again?
|
If I had to do it all again I would not of gone with eibach. I would have gone with coilovers. I want somethign stiffer.
|
I like the Stillen bumper on MB
Great car, very inspirational for me :hello: |
Lizzette is beautiful!
|
Great job :tup: Hope to see it in person at a local meet soon...
|
thumbs up.
|
I remember you used to post on NICO all the time when you had the altima, even remember your thread when you got the Z. Looks nice.
Quick question, is that the EVO-R CF diffuser? What are you doing with it once you get your new rear bumper? |
..good day picked up the last ****** kit from mike at 370Ztune. Thanks Mike for all the help and the long phone calls. Lets the Official project begin. I have bought so much things for my car and changed my mind..like every week. Finally got something thats worse while!

Very nice! I like the new headlights too. What bumber is that? the Amuse?
|
Amuse bumper, sweet! Going all out I see. Are you doing a full body kit or just the front facia. I wan't to go that route in the future. The Amuse kit is simply amazing. Just out of curiosity how much does a good quality paint job for just the front facia run?
|
Yes full kit with wing but mine is going to have carbon fiber all over. For a good paint job maybe 1500 for the whole kit. Im not sure I havent been quoted yet for mine.

damn this kitttt is costing my some money
|
Damn Jamaica. Over 6 grand for a kit & paint is an insane amount, but man is it worth it. Post some picks when your done and good luck with the build.
|
Well today I worked on the car for a bit. Trying to find new rotors and trying to add power to the car without going FI. ANDDD I withdrew from spocom because my car isn't going to ready by then. Taking the show winner tc. Just keeping my finger crossed for my new project goes well
|
awesome....subscribing
|
Looking for FI today. Stillen or GTM. The thing that I want is carb legal. Thats prob the biggest. Stillen has more or an aftermarker looks, GTM has more of a stock look. Need to decide soon after the body kit is installed.
|
gtm tt looks very nice =].
|
Top secret and hks has a twin turbo kit coming out. Also sts turbo called with some interesting news.
|
hks is taking forever. And I heard about top secret..but who knows how long thats going to take. The titanium strut bar for the engine wont be released till october..
|
I will stay tunned for sts twin turbo set up
|
Went to spocom today. Only a few 370z. They were all pretty much stock.
hks was a new tt setup. http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y84...senluv/hks.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y84...enluv/hks2.jpg The amuse kit: still working on a few custom pieces. Also talking to rick at Venaci to get new wheels in step lip. This car is always a work on progess. |
So my car is in the shop before I leave for two weeks for the army. Working on a custom exhaust setup for the amuse kit so my car can stand out.
http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y84...fusenluv/s.jpg Taking out the headlights. http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y84...usenluv/sh.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y84...senluv/shi.jpg This is the difference between stock bulb and 6k bulb. http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y84...enluv/shin.jpg Taking off the intakes for custm tt project. http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y84...nluv/shine.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y84...luv/shinea.jpg Working on a custom exhaust for the rear bumper. And just ordered new wheels and tires. New venacis in step lip. Sounds sexy. |
nice bud, looking forward to seeing it all put back together again.
any reason why tt instead of supercharge? |
well i wanted to supercharge the car. Two optinos stillen and GTM. Stillen doesnt have the stock look that I want. GTM cant answer the unknown question of the lth issue. I believe its gtm issue not the lths. HKS is coming out with a kit but not sure if they are going into production due to economy. I wanted a kit that pushed 400 to the wheel easy. The tt get 450+. I have turbo manifold for my tt build, just looking at bigger turbos. If it doesnt work out, I will continue to wait. The car is new still. There should be plenty of more FI application in the next year.
|
yeah, that's kind of why i'm biding my time on forced induction. sooner or later the car will have the power to match the ridiculous exterior lol.
good luck tho. when it's all done should get both our cars together for a photoshoot :tup: |
red, blue 370z photoshoot. lol all were missing is baker tunning white one. Red white and blue haha.
What type of FI are you looking at>? |
Love the lizzette!!! and love andrew too. just a lil ;)
|
haha u better cause ur took her face off...literally
