Are there before and after pics?

[94infinitiq45]

Yes i sent him pics of my car all apart and i had previously posted the pics of when it first got hits but i am amazed at how my dad did the bodywork.I sent pics of my car,the parts off the car i got and it done now. Just painted it Sunday!!!

Thanks wes.

Very nice!!

I love the FX wheels on the G50 - it's my new favorite combination. Given the lack of good tire choices in 16" (my current wheels from a 97) I may have to make the jump when this set of tires is toast.

They do look somewhat like the fx wheels but they're off of an 03 or 04 m45.Got em on ebay for 200 bucks with some curb rash.Fixed em up and repainted em.Look good as new. Thanks for the compliments though!

[94infinitiq45]

Question: On your signature you have ES Subframe Bushings. What does this mean?

[qsiguy]

That is amazing! I would love to get a new paint job for my turbo Q. It has tons of paint chips in the hood and various dings, chips and scratches all over.

Love the color as well!

[94infinitiq45]

Thank my dad for the great paint job.Lol.

But the ES(energy suspension) subframe bushings are totally new poly bushings that are made for a 300zx,You need to shorten them about a 1/4 in for them to work but mine were shot.But with the damage that happened to my car it was inevitable to have to remove the subframe.It was a pita to get the old bushings out and put the new ones in but it was worth it.$1000 for a subframe or $59.99 for bushings?

Thanks for all the compliments though!!!!

If you were closer qsiguy I wouldnt see my dad painting your car being a problem,but Arizona is a little far.lol. Nice turbo though!!

[burijon]

Holy cow! Was the car cut into?! I'm not sure any Q is worth that but it does look absolutely stunning! Kudos to your dad! More honor!

[94infinitiq45]

I thought the car was worth it considering i drove it home. Lol. But it was somewhat cut in two but not really it was amazing how it was done.My dads been doing it for 35 years so he's pretty damn good.

Thanks for all the compliments everyone!

[bullittandy]

Tell your dad he's a genious! I can't believe how much of that car was cut away. Its amazing what a little/alot energy and expereince can accomplish.

jsut saw your post, about your dad's body work. how do you do pricing? you need to see the car. my q kicks side ways and wobbles if you go around a curve and hit a bump, i did put in the rear a/sway bar but the shocks are original, is that the subframe bushings or the tension rods? how did the lowering springs affect the ride and handling? tx for your help [email protected]

[94infinitiq45]

It all depends on how bad it is but it is much much cheaper than a bodyshop (they rip you off). But when i bought my q it had bad rear struts and it did the same thing. It would actually hop off the ground a little if u hit a big enough bump etc. It is more than likely the rear struts.You can get em for like 75 bucks a piece at http://www.nopionline.com. But e-mail me at [email protected] if you have pics of your car and i can have my dad look at em.
