Bought a key yesterday at Orchard for $86.19. Car only came with 1 key and what is either the valet key or the second key that had the plastic crack off. The key itself is ugly but now I have a spare just in case.

 

Took a minute last night to stop somewhere pretty and take a rare moment to look through my particular car's cosmetic defects to admire the sleek lines of the G to the tune of quacking ducks in the background.

 

Replaced the Infiniti G35 exhaust adapter custom made 3" to keep the same tubing of the Nismo S Tune . I was having an exhaust leak between Y pipe and adapter this is the second adapter because the first one we did it in a rush and it looks like Frankenstein will post pictures tomorrow.

 

Wow nice clean welds on that thing there.


I noticed a difference in power delivery recently and last night I took a look under the hood to find my engine torque damper was snapped in half... Nice. The engine moves more than it used to when I rev it accounting for the slightly sloppier shifting and more isolated feel on/off throttle.


Anyone know of a supplier who stocks small hydraulic dampers in various sizes available to consumers? Wouldn't mind getting a quality adjustable damper to replace the ebay one that broke, but definately not worth the money to me for a brand name part.

 

I know it looks like a masterpiece. I felt bad installing It . lol

 

Washed, clayed and waxed on Sunday. After 5 years of ownership; I traded it in last night for a 2018 Camaro SS. It was between that and a Mustang GT.

Last pic of the G. I'll miss it but now understand why people like doing the LS swap.

 

The lights are on a low hue constantly when off...will this drain my battery? LED lights are turned off but still give off subtle light constantly.

 

Some leds do that it wont drain your battery unless you dont turn the car on for month :]

 

Somebody should start a "What broke on the G today" thread.
2 broken things in 2 days....



Looks like this might be salvageable with a new O-ring, some shock oil, and loctite Red



My trunk didn't work this morning.Took about 2 minutes to figure out why.

 

Those trunk wires have got me 3 times in 5 years of ownership. Unfortunately I've cut back so much I can't repair it again.

My dash cracked... so there is that...

 

Nbd, they are pulling stuff that would normally not light up an incandescent bulb. Nothing to worry about.

 

When my ebay mount broke (that dampener thing )
It was because all my other motor mount were destroyed

 

All my motor mounts pretty much ARE destroyed... My gear selector jumps around like crazy whenever I go WOT at low speeds and I've got more vibration than acceptable for a "luxury" car in the cabin.


I have a pair of ebay OEM replacement mounts that I was going to throw in until I realized how hard engine mount replacement is on the G. Part of why I want to keep the dampener is because it reduces stress on the mounts and might prevent mine from giving up all the way.



Did you DIY or pay someone to do yours? If I could get it done in less than 3 hours I'd do it but since everything still works fine as of now I'm in no rush to do them. If I wait long enough maybe I'll have money for something that isn't ebay.

 

Take the bulbs out, flip them 180* and re-install. See if that helps, some LED bulbs are finicky about polarity. If it doesn't work you just wasted 10 seconds of your life, no big deal.

 

tried that on my first attempt to install accidentally; light didn't turn on but gave me the idea to easily know which side was correct for the second led. i turned the light on and contact was made, i knew which way the light needed to go in. Thanks for the suggestion.
