Braking was now a huge factor that the factory gear couldn鈥檛 handle. A Brembo GT kit was added with a 6-piston 380mm combo up front utilizing a 4-piston / 345mm rear. With enlarged brakes (and need for traction) and an enormous set of wheels and tires, HRE stepped in to supply a set of 648Rs, a 3-pice roller measuring 22 x 10.5-inch up front with a -15 offset and a shockingly oversized 22 x 12-inch rocking -20! Pirelli Scorpion Zero Asimmetricos wrap the HREs with 295/30R22s in front and 335/25R22 for a total package valued at $20,000 alone!
Requiring a custom metal widebody to accommodate the wheels, the car was shipped to Car Nutz Customz in Seattle, Washington. When the bodywork was complete, the shell was blasted in several coats of blue and clear coats. But the assault on the senses was just beginning as the multimedia install got underway.
The entire interior was gutted to make way for a load of Dynamat to keep out road noise. Then all of the Monster Cable power and ground wires were laid in addition to the interconnects for the sound. The headunit is Alpine鈥檚 venerable IVA-D310 7-inch touchscreen with an additional IVA-W505 in the rear. Nguyen added a few Alpine expansions including a PXA-H701 Multimedia Manager, NVE-N872A DVD Navigation System and the KCA-420I Ipod Interface. Vizual Logic supplied the dial 7-inch headrest monitors fed by the secondary Alpine DVDs. The lows head to a Zapco Audio DC1100.1 Digital Reference Amplifier that drives a pair of Image Dynamics IDMax 12-inch subs. The highs are delegated to the Zapco Audio DC1000.4 amp feeding Dynaudio Front Esotec 364 3-ways and Dynaudio 262 2-ways.
With all of the right moves, this FX gets top honors from us. Sure it is an Infiniti but this unique approach to a popular but rarely modded platform was more than refreshing. Beneath all of the visual upgrades beats the heart of a lion too, a twin turbo VQ that will easily embarrass most of what is on the road today.
