I can say first hand that at least the Eibach kit does not make for a harsh ride at all on the G35 sedan. Progressive springs. But yeah, I'd go for something a little different.

wow, another convert from the g35!

if you want real power, you will have to spend about 3k+ for either a turbo, or 5k+ for a supercharger, or 1k+ for a good NO2

So only 1k for a nitro setup? is that safe for the car? easy to "melt" the engine?

So, how much faster? 0-60 that is.

I guess I was getting a bit tired of the hard clutch and was looking for a nice excuse to trade in or sell.

My plan was to sell the G35 for about 25k, buy a used Rx8 for about 16-17 k, and mod the heck out of it. That's assuming that I will get 25 k for my car and can find an rx8 for 17k...

Maybe I'll just keep the G.

mmm.. Hard questions. I drive an 04 G35 AT, and also an 07 RX8 MT.. I love both cars and it would be hard to give up one for the other.. I love the low end torque of the G and the mods leading to easy torgue & hp gains.. (MRev 2 , Plenum spacers) On the other hand, I love the sound of the RX8, the way it corners..


Guess Ill just keep both!
