[StevieRaySTL]

--Thx Lino, the rims are stock 18in m35x/fx35,the tires are 245-45s...

[lino]

I've heard nothing but good things about the 245/45 size. I wanted to go to that size, but until I get my suspension 100%, I'm sticking with 15s.

[jtmroczk]

I love driving this thing, still needs lots of work including a paint job...

[lino]

Love those pics

[TODD0341]

Here's my beast. I am planning to swap the awesome hydraulic suspension for the even awesomer Z32 suspension
Im somewhat of a lurker around here and have been for a while. This car has 190K on it and runs pretty decent. I am looking forward to the transmission choking so I can use this Mazwork adapter I have sitting around.

[OwnerCS]

Cool car. What type of wheels do you have on it?

[lino]

Those wheels look like the factory 15" BBS wheels without the center caps on.

I dont think you would want 4.08 gears IMO. The 3.54 is pretty good especially if you start adding more power... Looks like a nice setup, I like the blow-through MAF too.. Very clean setup, what are you doing for engine management?

[Q-ZILLA]

Maybe your right about the gears, I do like the top end performance. Last week I took out a late model MB AMG S55, pretty even off the line, but got him by 1.5-2 car lenghts w/in 1/8th mile. He was so pissed at the next light, side by side, he wouldn't even look over! The tune Shane did for me is all I have for management... I love the tune, big difference between the two tunes.

I just wanted faster gears, because it's annoying to let Vettes get the jump on me, then I have to wait for the windup. I haven't had the chance to race a ZO6 or ZR1, "normal" Vettes do get shocked though when I scream by. The car is a beast. I fell in love with it in 95, Infiniti gave me one to test-drive for the weekend, but 55k back then... I got this one from a client in 99 for 7k with 58k miles on it.

I like the 5 speed you put in... I'm a little green, but I still have a lot of other things to do to "finish" this project. My wife doesn't think it'll ever be done. That's okay... After 2006 or so, she had the car while I was on a contract job, she hasn't been allowed to drive it since. Between her and the kids, they helped out the interior problems. I'm waiting for a quote on interior now.

FYI, I didn't and don't have the expertise or tools to do this install, I helped, but my ex-friend mechanic did the install. This install was massively inspired by Shane's install. I sat on the parts too long and Shane beat me to the finish, but I think it helped us to tweak what we wanted different from his. I now do all maintenance and upgrades to my Baby... Mechanic douchbags!

[BigNick]

Hey ya'll,

I bought a Q45 a couple of weeks ago. I have changed the earl, flushed the transmission fluid, fixed the drivers window regulator, added Powerslot, cryo-treated rotors with Akebono Ceramic pads on the front, and added 5000k Hi/Lo HIDs. My transmission cooler and Nico ECU should be here sometime today!! Just ordered a fuel pump from IOS.

Tint and new windshield is in the near future.

Here is a pic of her. She aint pefect, but for 172k and 15years, I kinda like her.

[OwnerCS]

Very NICE! Welcome to NICO! Whereabouts are you located?

Good deal! I think I saw that Q for sale somewhere not long ago. What a sweetie you have there.

I would be interested to see some pictures of your ATF cooler install as I am about to start that operation with mine and I need some ideas.

I got it off of Atlanta's craigslist. Contacted the lady on Saturday night, bought it on Sunday afternoon. She wanted $2400, I got it for $1380.

That is about the 3rd time I have heard that this week....

[.::94Q45::.]

Hello!

This is my 94 Q45.Bought it back in February.Replaced the fuel pump,fuel filter,spark plugs.
Since I Bought I had about 3 differents sets of wheels for it
My current wheels are 20''
20x8.5 Front
20x10 Rear
I still dont have pics of the whole car with the current wheels

How the rear wheels fit

Let me know what you think.

[OwnerCS]

It looks like it is a lot of fun to drive! Nice reflections in the paint also.

Are you using a lift kit?

[.::94Q45::.]

Thanks! However I am. Not using a lift probably it apperas that because it's not on a leveled ground.

[nissankid83]

Well I just picked up my 94 Q45t less than 3 months ago already put 11k miles on it. This pic is before the magnaflow exhaust

Clean looking Q

[nissankid83]

sorry for bad quality, took them off my blackberry.

Looks Clean

[OwnerCS]

Glad to finally get wheels on today..

Many G50s have these later Q45 wheels -- so nothing really new or different. Though I am happy with the look.

Looks GREAT !!!!!!!!!! Stock springs or lowered? what size tires?

[OwnerCS]

Thanks Qship. Just stock springs. The Michelin Pilots MXM4 245 45 18 came along with the wheels.

It makes it handle better -- even with needing new shocks/struts..

[qship96]

Looks great as is, I would NOT lower it!

[jesuscruz]

"Operation: Restore the Q" is underway!
1993 Q45a, 91k (yes 91), 12pc body kit, JL Audio throughout(also under const. yes, i see the wires)....more to come, including paint, lol..
