Really dumb idea. It's an Infiniti G35 coupe. If you want to badge something Datsun get a 1970 Datsun 240Z.

There was a boosted G37 Coupe at the Sedan GTG II with Datsun badging IIRC. Definitely a no from me.

Meh, I always thought of it as a joke, especially with that blown G37 awhile back. Definitely plays into the inferior datsun mind set that Jeremy Clarkson likes to use. I'll admit it is funny at times.

Sadly, with this and the skyline badging, there arent enough people that get it to pull it off. Most people probably say "that aint no gtr" when they see the skyline badge...

You better not go half ass. I want to see a full Datsun rebadge. Front, rear, seats, door sills, steering wheel, rim center caps.

If you just stick on a Datsun badge on the back under the Mt Fuji logo, I will find you and back hand you.
