- 2005 FX35
Hey all,
So I've always had a soft spot for FX35's since the first gen came out. Alas, couldn't afford a $35k used FX35 at 18 so ended up going Audi and its been a wild ride. I'm a veteran member over on Audizine, have won at shows all over the East Coast and compete in cross country car rallies. The friends, events and roads I've traveled because of that online forum are priceless.
Family is finally looking to do a full overhaul on our FX35... bought brand new in 2005 and now at 140k. I'm trying to purchase it from them and finally start what I've always wanted to do.
2005 FX35 (Non-Sport/Tech Pack)
Diamond Graphite
Plans:
Refresh all major maintenance items first
replace cracked intake hose coupler (possible to source off a G35?)
H&R Sport Springs
KYB Struts
OEM 20"x8.5" Sport Wheels OR GTR Wheels
15% Tint Front windows
Source a replacement driver seat
Invidia Exhaust
I'm going to start searching this forum for all DIY's on maintenance and modifications. If anyone has any links they know off the top of their head, don't hesitate to share. Glad to be a part of another great forum family from what I've heard!
