Just purchased my 1999 Y33 Q45t

[Dark Anghell]

Well i am now a part of the VIP Style family. Today I picked up a 1999 Q45t black on tan with some ugly 17" chrome wheels. I will post pics whenever i have time (in a few days)

[dvp]

Cool, welcome it is always a good feeling to get rid of ugly wheels, im about to ditch my stock wheels for some EXE style wheels as my daily drivers.

what happened to the legacy?!??!!

[Dark Anghell]

I figured that the legacy will never be VIP, fast or reliable. The master cylinder was about to go out again, the CV boot was not replaced, just glued back together (mechanic could not find any replacements in WA), it was reving up by itself in between gears sometimes. This car is very nice, there are a few maintenace things i have to do and replace one of foglights, but overall it's a clean car, it has just one door ding the rest of the body is straight. I just have to find a day when it's not raining and apply some wax designed for black cars (the one that goes for like $40 a bottle), so it looks like a mirror ;)

[shawnthemonster]

did you trade the outback? good job pavel.

[Dark Anghell]

Yes, the legacy was traded in...a strait trade too, which was awesome. So I don't have to worry about payments and start saving the money for coilovers and wheels.

[Pagong]

Yay, another one from Washington!

[shawnthemonster]

vince you work today?

[Dark Anghell]

They made those in 4x4?






















j/k

Nice car, time to get to work.

[Dark Anghell]

I actually had mine lifted to make the transition from subaru outback to this car go a bit smoother ;)

It will be a little while until the car is closer to the ground because i want to do wheels and suspension at the same time...otherwise it will look wierd on those 17's with +100000000000000 offset that I have right now.

[shawnthemonster]

you have the shit.....i love that taillamp setup instead of the one we had discussed....

[Dark Anghell]

Today I will debadge the rear, so I only have the chrome trunk bar left. I dunno should I remove the Q45 and the badge or just the Q45?

[shawnthemonster]

i say both

[Benji]

Awesome platform to start. I say shave both as well.

[mdenoga]

shave both.

[Dark Anghell]

well I removed just the Q45t and i think if i take off the infiniti badge, it will look too bare.
