Baseball, to me milage is high. You are going to run into maintenace issues / repair bills. I'm thinking at least a clutch perhaps suspension as well. I would keep looking for lower milage G35. '05 have oil consump[tion issue, buyer beware!

hey guys, first time poster here.

i've just got done installing a few bolt ons on my 2007 g35 coupe 5at

stillen cai
stillen catback exhaust
fast intention nonresonated cats
stillen headers
5/16 plenum spacer

i'm not sure what i should get next to get some power... any suggestions?

also, i'd like to add that my ultimate goal is to get a supercharger, so i don't want anything that would interfere with that.

At minimum 10+hp/tq and a better power curve. Gains vary though depending on the tuner. Some with the non-revup have gotten 20+ gains.

hey guys, I just bought my 2003 coupe last week and there is a problem with the right hand strut. I have aftermarket topspeed mdu coilovers and apparently the passenger side one wasn't "preloaded" correctly? I need some advice on this... a link or explanation on how to do this would be appreciated. thanks

I recently got an 05 g coupe 6mt. I have a couple grand to spend and was wondering the best mods to gain RWHP without going over budget.

Any help is greatly appreciated

Thanks in advance

I have a chance to get an '05 6MT with 56,000 miles on it. Is there any indication that the motor would have the oil comsumption issue? I mean, do they burn it through exhaust or leak it? Any help, would be great.
