Ok, is it just me or is anyone else here too scared to do anything with the G? I'm way too scared to launch the G from a stop, do donuts, burnouts or anything of that nature because I think that the car is going to break down.. Even coming home after hard driving/ higher speed driving I feel worried and start thinking about it... I'm just used to beating the crap out of my old legend, and coming home without a worry that anything would be wrong with the car on my next start.. Honestly, I think I freak out so much that I start hearing things that arent even happening.. Every time a POS car squeals by or I hear squeeky brakes I think its me.

Am I just freaking out? Can G's take a beating, or are they too fragile?

 

Haha I'm the same way... I baby my G much more than previous cars. I'm pretty sure they can take a lickin' on keep on tickin'

 

I admit, I beat on mine. I spin the tires every single day. I just can't help it! I think they hold up well. No problems yet.

 

Yeah, the car was meant to be driven - I love cornering hard and kicking out the back end.

 

i feel the same about not wanting anything to happen to it.. but i drive it hard.. and i think the g likes to be driven hard.. lets not forget, just because it looks pretty doesnt mean its gonna break.

 

haha..you guys are hilarious..good thread though..

 

Elaborate...

 

I drive mine a little hard, and it's fine. Had a VQ before (95 Maxima) that I drove pretty hard for over 100K miles, and all it ever needed was a clutch at 120K miles, so I'd expect at least the same from the G....

 

I drive mine hard just about everyday...you should try it it is fun!!! donuts are great in that car it really whips around

 

I drive my g good compared to other cars i have owned. But i still beat on the g every once and a while, VQ powa baby!!! Nissan product can take a lickin, i use to beat on my maxima hardcore, and that thing held up well.

The only thing i worry about is the 3rd gear sincro problem, how common is that and around what mileage does t start.

 

100 000 KM car runs amazing and i cant stop beating my G.... every light i take off and half the time i do burnouts... ive done dohnuts lots and have smoked my tires from a stand stilll..... im not proud of it cause i love my G but its just too tempting and fun..... haha anyways thats my story so you shouldnt worry..... o and another thing my clutch transmision and everything is still running very strong!

hope that helps! enjoy!

 

The G is a drivers car, it was meant to be driven for the shear pleasure of driving! I love to kick out the rear tires every now and then.

 

It's just you...

Here's my G35 Sedan at the race track, and yes, I did just pass that 08 Z06 Vette.

 

hilarious..my elaboration is this..if i bought a 25000 performance car, id better be able to burn the tires when i want to without having it break down. Who is buying this coupe, thinkin, "yeah..well i better tread softly...this cars' not made to be beatin up" screw that..im going to do some experimenting with my coupe once i get back..

 

+1.You gotta have a little fun with it.
