I promised photos a while back, but I've been slow to borrow the digital camera. I finally snagged it, so here it is. It looks pretty much like every other Crystal Silver G20 Sport out there. ;)

'02 Altima 3.5 SE 5-speed
'02 G20 Sport 5-speed

PS - The tint is SolarGenics semi-metallic, 28 percent all around.

Dam. That is one tight car. What I would do for a brand spanking new Primera/G20...:frog:

Thanks for the kind words, everyone. I like the car more and more every day. Besides being a blast to drive and having a *fantastic* shifter and clutch, the thing is tight as a drum. It feels like the whole car was carved out of a solid block of billet steel.

I know that from the second view it's hard to see the car behind that massive barn-door license plate mount, so I'll be rid of it soon. A buddy of mine from Altimas.net is mailing me two sets of plastic plugs that'll cover up the bolt holes -- I'll paint 'em to match with dealer touch-up paint. (In Texas, a front plate isn't required, and even if it were, I think I might take my chances rather than look at this eyesore every day.) I hope both cars will come out looking as slick as his does; see below.

PS - And if anyone's interested in them, let me know and I'll hook you up with the guy.

Man, TeamNissan, that thing is lowered to the ground! What is that, about a three inch drop all around? Do you have speed bumps in Denmark? ;)

The roads in the U.S. are so bad that our G would be dead in a week if I lowered it like yours.

Hey Jarrod,

It is 110mm drop all around.

We pay 50% in tax in Denmark so our roads are normally in very good condition.

It is a VERY hard suspension, so it is no problem driving ower speed bumps, except that I have to drive very slowly so that my kidny won't exploed!*LOL* When it is a very high speed bump, I sometimes have to drive a little sideways over the bump. :)

Dang, mine is stock and that's low enough for me! I can't even drive it up onto those oil-change-ramp dealies. And the roads in Utah are better than Arizona and Nevada by a long shot but I still have to be CAREFUL or I'll hit a *surprise* and scrape or something.

I'll never forget in my Sentra I was exiting a parking lot at night with no street lights and the exit wasn't clearly marked. I went off the curb into a 1' deep gutter and I swear it sounded like the car broke in half. Don't worry, learned my "new driver" lesson and won't do that again.

Holy cow! I was conservative in my estimate; that works out to 4.33 inches! Do you have squirrels in Denmark? If so, watch out for them crossing the road, 'cause if you hit one at high speed your whole undercarriage may just rip out. ;)

Holy cow! (I think I just said that.) I'm wondering if I'd be willing to pay a 50 percent income tax to have glass-smooth roads. Thinking... thinking... maybe not. Nope, definitely not. But I think I'll have to take a trip to your country just to see your gorgeous, pristine, glass-smooth roadways. In America, we consider a road "smooth" if it has less than six potholes per 100 meters.

LMAO!!!!!! Hahahaha!:p Thats like here in New Zealand, people from overseas travel on our state highway no.1, the main road, and inquire before they know its the main road "why are we traveling on this crappy back country road!" Pot holes here in NZ are part of the plan when building our main Highways!!!!!:p

HA HA HA YUP a lot of cats has let their lift to my car!!*LOL* No actually the only thing I have hit was a dead fox laying on the highway when I was approaching with something like 180 km/t, so I had to drive over it!! When I got back to the city I had to drive to the market to do some shopping!! Sometimes some boys are looking at my car when I pass them, but this time both women and a lot of other looked at my car! I didn't think much about it until I park my car on the roof of the market........... The entire front was covered with blood and intestines.........*LOL*

Else I haven't had many problems with the low set up! :)

We don't pay much else in Denmark! Our hospitals, libraries etc. are free of charge! So the 50% is actually OK! :)
But then we have CRAZY taxes on cars!! A P11 G20 costs around 300.000 DKr. = 35.461,83 USD

LOL LOL LOL LOL
We don't have those problems in Denmark! :)

Ouch! Double-ouch!

Our roads may be crappy, our healthcare may be awful, our crime rate may be high and our food may be fatty, but we do have cheap cars and gasoline. We bought our G20 Sport for US$20K and have begun complaining lately about how gasoline has "skyrocketed" to $1.30 per gallon. The horror! Hehehe.

PS - Loved the fox story.

ha ha ha I will go with the cheap cars and let the rest take care of them selves them!!*LOL* Naaaaa I like the idea of taking care of people less echonomibal lucky! :) But sure it would be NIIIIICE with cheaper cars! :)

Our gasoline is 1.15 USD pr litre, so your gasoline prices are almost 4 times as cheap as our! :(
