So i'm in the market for a Used G35 coupe (black or white) and was wondering what are some nice/favorable mods that look good? Here is a list of what i am planning to get and please let me know if you have a specific brand or model that i should check out! Thanks!

1) new wheels
2) New body kit (can be just the front too)
3) coilovers
4) POSSIBLY a spoiler
5) headlights
6) possibly brakes as well

Thanks!!

[Jackygor]

1) volks (any kind really)

i'd get a 05+ and put some nice brakes on it

1. wheels, Volks are pretty popular, depends if you want 19's or 20's with 20's you're going to have to go with another brand like works for example\
2. for a body kits i'm not really a fan so i wouldn't know what to suggest to you
3. coilovers, i've heeard good things about BC racing, but you can't go wrong with KW's
4. for spoilers, i prefer stock, and the 05-06 spoiler is much smaller and is only as wide as the trunk, as opposed to the 03-04 which some refer to as a park bench.
5. headlights? well for the 03-05 they're HID equipped but don't have projectors, i believe 06's have them standard.
6. Stoptech seems to be a favourite. or upgrade with OEM Akebono's or Brembos' which are easily half the price of the stoptechs.

GL, autos, are much cheaper lol if you don't care about the transmission.

if you're going to get an auto. it really doesn't matter what year you get in terms of performance, but the newer the better :D
the 06 IMO looks much better. and the interior is much nicer as well.

ewww the front looks like garbage.

Buy one from the US, maybe seattle... and use that thousands of dollars you saved for a wide body kit and turbo.

Yeah i could do that. How much do turbos cost roughly? Are there any specific wide body kits you would suggest? thanks

[kluk]

also, what is the process like buying a car from the states? Does it have to be local or can it be from a dealer?

[1exotic]

also, what is the process like buying a car from the states? Does it have to be local or can it be from a dealer?

I think if the vehicle is built or made in the US you don't even have to pay any duties, just maybe taxes. If it was built outside the US and brought into the US that wouldn't really make it a US car so you would have to pay some boarder fee's (6.1% of what the car is worth). I think that's how it goes unless someone can correct this.

[JackyJai]

I am parting out my car.
I got everything you listed.
PM me if you want more details.

[Leopold Stotch]

You can buy an american car from a dealer. there is some work to do when importing a car though. so be wary.

also with autos, some turbo setups won't work. plus FI setups for the G35 are in the range of 5-10grand before tuning.

[kluk]

is it better to buy the car from the infiniti dealer or is getting it from a 3rd party used car dealer just as good? Its because infiniti dealers sell them for about 30k$ and a 3rd party one ranges around 22k-25k. The difference is huge imo and can easily accommodate a huge portion of my mods.

Eek, that's a lot of money to be putting into a used car that's found on every street corner in the lower mainland...
Have you asked adon? seems like he's done a lot of what you said

well my previous choice was to get a bmw 328 e92 coupe but honestly, id rather just invest that money in stocks and spend half the money and get a decent car.

Again, bmws are EVERYWHERE in the lower mainland as well haha. Just about every asian.

[kluk]

ok kuruma it is!

[shawn79]

i was gonna get a g35 but almost everyone who drives a g35 got shot.... even at wendys and some guy i know!

[kluk]

are 2003 G35 not the best year to get? I've done some reading and it seems that the 2005+ are the best in terms of auto.

Its because i found a few 2003 models that have low mileage (under 50k). If the 2003 and newer models don't have much of a difference, is it save to go with the 2003?

[Leopold Stotch]

well for the auto. i don't know if there's much of a difference.

for the 03's just be wary of the tire problem.

also the 05-06's look nicer both exterior and interior.

you can definitely get a 03 if that doesn't matter to you.

[kluk]

whats the tire problem?

03-04 had camber wear on the tires, cheaper /uglier interior

no projectors


05-06 looks slightly different, more power

with ROTAS, anything is gonna be riced out

[JackyJai]

05-06 looks slightly different, more power

05 looks the same... 06~07 looks different.
for the Rev-up (05~07 6speed) motor they have more hp but less tq.
05 is kinda of in between.
Same exterior as the 03~04 but interior of a 06~07.
They started with the 19" Rays forged wheels from 05 on the sport version and stopped giving them the Brembo brakes.
But those Brembo ain't so good on the track any ways.
The car is too heavy for them.

from turbo charged widebody G, to Rota replica wheels ? how do you go from 30 thousand dollar projects to replica wheels that cost a few hundred bucks ?? I know when you buy your first car of a certain model and you don't know where to begin with mods, but damn homie...

I wanna help you so I sent you a pm telling you go check out http://g35driver.com/forums to save yourself a lot of hassle and to get you in the right direction if you're serious about modifying

I personally did a few months of research about the car and what's nice looking and what's ugly before I started modding, and I did it on G35driver.com which is the best place for all your answers, and it's where you should go immediately :thumbsup:


quick example of what your G might end up like if you begin to mod without knowing what you really want... (this red one for example, highly modified, Supercharged, 10's of thousands of dollars invested but he gets clowned every time he posts pictures, horrible taste when it comes to modifying exterior)

and last piece of advice would be in a lot of cases, less is more.... especially if you're not familiar with modifying a particular model of vehicle, take this 350z for example, all he has is wheels, front lip and it's lowered but it looks more gangster than almost all the other the highly modified 350's on my350z.com

Yeah, i went to G35driver.com like you said when you sent me the PM and it helped a lot. Answered a lot of questions i had too. Yeah, ill do a bit more research obviously and i'll let you guys know what i'll have in mind later :)

Thanks again adon for the pics too haha

^ join niclub.ca and ask your questions there.

[GordonTse]

watch out for the vq35 motors. they burn oil. 350z, maxima, murano etc.. anything with the 3.5L motor. there are good ones out there tho.

[ilvtofu]

^VG engines do too, or at least I hope so, better not be a leak!!!

[G-spec]

watch out for the vq35 motors. they burn oil.


^ only a small percentage of 2006 year VQ engines have the oil burning issue, and not years 2003 all through to 2007 like you're implying

in any case even if you happen to get it, the good news is that it's an official Infiniti TSB so the dealership will replace the whole engine and give you a brand new one.

[kluk]

ok so i think i know what mods im gonna get...first of all its gonna be a white g35 :)

-lowered with HR sport springs
-BBS lemans wheels with red bbs wheel cap of course (link here) http://www.wheeldude.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=5857
-window tint
-side markers
-possible rear bumper CF diffuser
-kuruma front bumper
-impul sides
-possibly brembos but they're out of my budget...i see some g35s that come with stock brembos though.


Does anyone know how much it would cost to get the kuruma front and impul sides painted+installed? Thanks a bunchhhh
