[One Ton VIP]

tossing up a couple recent pics of a friend's zenki G50.. it's quite photogenic I think. makes me miss my VSXXs, too (the ones on his car are not mine).

simple, but sometimes that's all it takes imo

[uncle_el]

oftentimes, less is more, and this is definitely one of those times.* very sexy!* btw, i have some things to discuss with you, and i'll be sending you an e-mail shortly. ;)

suspension and wheels ...easy equation success.

[firelizard]

Photogenic indeed but that front is well...lets just say I disagree with Nissan on tha point. President conversion anyone?
Love the wheels and stance :)

I'm interested in seeing more close ups of the front fenders :)

[bBOXD]

Got me all excited. :)

[shoez]

Dont see enough examples of nice G50's... i'm liking this one. Are those skyline brakes tucked behind the Works?

[9ine Deuce]

thats fire right there. sic.

whats the supension set up ? bags ?

[jbo]

Absolutely gorgeous my man Im digging everything about it.As far as suspension and anything else did you have alot of input?

[shawnthemonster]

whats the supension set up ? bags ?


yeah, whats the sus?

[{-.-}]

Nice...........

Those wheels remind me back in my Celsior days with BBS

[VIPWannabe]

Are the front fenders rolled?

[jzz30tt]

Are the front fenders rolled?


It appears that the front fender lips are pulled down and out, not rolled. It look like a very good job from the pics.

[Caoboy]

is he planning on getting a new bumper? i think that was the main reason i got a first gen LS rather than a first gen Q. that damn front bumper..ew. clean car though! whats the suspension specs?

[One Ton VIP]

he did flip and pull his front fenders... he really needs to blend it in better to the remainder of the arch imo.. the Q's multi-faceted fender lips really do make fender processing a bit difficult. Suspension was just cut springs, but he's got air now, so ride height I think should be about an inch above that, and parked height will be about 3" below
oh yah, his front fenders are a great example of why 9.5" really should be the limit for front wheel width on stock-fendered G50s... his are 10s, and required that little flip, and still need some work (gonna make him some front arms to bring them in some, too)

[AME_VIP]

wow. Definitely a good example of how fitment and stance can make an otherwise stock car look soooo nice.

Is the the same person selling their 10 and 11 VSXX on zilvia?

[chinaonnitrous1]

Hmm..the front fenders, dont seem too well off. I can see the lip pulled out..... :-\

DId you really just miss what OneTon said two post before your post? Way to read :idiot2:

[One Ton VIP]

yup, i personally think he did a horrible job on the front fenders too... making something worse just to get a certain set of wheels to fit... best solution would be to just not run those wheels and get something else.
Oh yah, and I don't think he's the same guy that was selling the wheels on zilvia... i believe he did get from that guy though

[username]

got any close up pictures on the front fenders?

[One Ton VIP]

sorry no close ups of the fenders... they hurt my eyes.

[One Ton VIP]

Didn't want to start a new thread for this... but a little vidclip of something I've been working on... it's the same car. Not too enthused about the limited travel inherent in this particular air setup, since it's a motley conglomeration of JIC coilovers and universal air's bags... but it does help me design something for the G50 that will hopefully ultimately go about 1/2" higher, while resting about 1" lower.

[HG50]

you guys know the exact size of those wheels with offsets yet? need some help with all that so i can find some rims for me but i guess 1/2 smaller in the front

i was wondering.. why did you use universal air's bags and not the other makes like slam specialities, coni tech or firestones

[pitchedup]

because theres not a big hole in the middle for you to put it over a strut made by the other brands. Unless its custom.

[One Ton VIP]

Yup... universal air is the only company that has a readily-available (and trustworthy, unlike AIM) bag unit that fits over strut bodies. Not good for the G50 though... it has limited strut tower room, and the rears cant at an angle upon compression, further reducing clearance. I'm going to be experimenting with some custom smaller diameter bags soon, fit over short-stroke strut bodies... we'll see.
Those VSXXs are 10", +13mm f/11", +13mm r....
