Well guys, Some might remember me. Many probably don't, but I was bored at work and figured I would post some old ZX2 pictures I found of my old car and what I have done with the current car.


ZX2 - Pretty Much right after I bought it I threw on some ALT wheels

ZX2 - Right before I decided to sell it, changed the wheels and some misc other mods including a custom projector headlight setup

Dont Have any most recent pics of the G35, but since those its been dropped on some Tein CS w/ EDFC and some other misc stuff.

Working on buying a house currently and soon after the SC goes away and then will come the built TT G35 (Or so I hope)

If my memory is correct I believe they were ALT litespeeds? 16in, the 2nd set were Konig somethings in 17s

That thing looked damn good with the alt wheels and wings west. Dont like the other wheels at all when compared.

Its an 03, bought it a little over a year ago with 9k miles on it, After I added Lo Jack and a extended 2 year warranty (that is useless now) it was approx 30k out the door. Paid cash :cjw: You can find them now for low 20s, check out some of the for sale sections on g35driver, or my350z if your interested in a Z. They are more realistic on pricing and some people actually take care of their cars.

That thing looked damn good with the alt wheels and wings west. Dont like the other wheels at all when compared.

I didn't really like the Konigs either, I was pressed on time for new wheels, I was driving home *uhh drunk perhaps?* and woke up the next day to one of the ALT wheels bent and a tire flat, I have no clue how it happened so I cant remember if I was drunk or not, so I had to get wheels the next day and that was what was available. I do like 17s on the Z more than 16s though. (and yes it was a mistake, wasn't planning to leave but was forced to and had no other ride. first and last time it will ever happen)

1st 2 pics with wings west are amazing man... loved that Z!!!

Thanks man, I miss that car sometimes, Wish the ALT wheels were in 17s and it would have been perfect. Funny thing is, ive seen that car drive around in the area. I was told the person that bought it lives in the same city and treats it like shit :( oh well it was a fun project.

Whats the problem with the Konigs? Are they too blingin or what. I think the car looked nice both ways. Hey Daorge how old are you now, just curious. Gotta find out how much longer I have before I should move on to another car like you have lol. Gotta keep my game up ya know.

I remember you. Sup man how you been? Long time no see. You just kinda dissappeared and the NW team disbanded. The only one that never sold his ZX2 is Mark. Vit has a GTI now. John sold his ZX2 then got another one a couple years later. I have a WRX now... ahhh the memories.
