I am considering to buy a G35...need some help.

Hi, I'm new to this forum so I would like to say hello to everyone. Just last weekend I test drove a 2003 G35 2 door 6 speed and I really like it....the car is amazing, and I've always loved the G.

As I was driving I noticed that the manual stick had a lot of vibration.....is this normal on the G35? It has about 110 000km's (68,000miles)

I drive a 2003 Honda accord 2 door 6 speed and the stick has no movement, so I'm not used to the manual stick shaking so much.

Thanks,
Bill

Oh geez, tell me about it man.... the clutch feels reeeeeal heavy, because the clutch on my accord is light as a feather. I have huge calves already, but with the 35, their gonna be ripped in a year lol.

Thanks for answering my question.

What would you guys recommend for MODS? And how much each mod would increase my hp?

Well.... could you give me an idea of what the most important mods should be?

I'm not thinking of turbo though.

beebo is right tho pick your setup for what you want as the final product...it makes no sense to go spend the money on a naturally aspirated mods when your planning a supercharger down the road...

that being said you should look into the normal mods.....cold air intake....plenum spacer since the g has crap plenums...and maybe an exhaust to help those heads turn when you drive by

Do you recommend better headers? Because one guy told me intake/plenum/headers is a great mix for the G.....I just want other people's opinion.

And yes it makes no sense slapping in a turbo in that engine.
