My Dream Build

So I had a G35 when I was 16 and I sold it a few years back. I have regretted it since. I was planning to buy a new one so I can make a new build. However after putting all the parts I wanted into a spreadsheet I have decided against it. Maybe somewhere in the near future lol.

Somewhere around $70,000 to $80,000 with the cost of the vehicle after shipping, taxes, and labor.

If you are not going to be tracking this G I would highly recommend swapping out the AP brakes for some Akebonos (budget) or Stoptech 4/2 pot (style).

Nothing wrong with being a "Dreamer!" However you do realize when you're finished spending that kind of $$ you'll still have an old car with modifications that very few individuals would care about if you decided to sell! Buy a 3 year old Corvette for a lot less $$ and have the fun of your life driving it! Putting big $$ into a Infiniti G35 is a damn poor investment!

That's probably why he decided against it :P
But yeah all that money for a G which would drive the same as my shitty car pretty much.... I guess if you're into keeping up appearances/show cars....

My old coupe had a very similar build and I sold it for peanuts since I didn't have extra parking at the time. I'm probably going to end up with a 2017 GT-R (love the revised interior) with an exhaust and maybe some wheels and be done with it.

I had the Akebono on my old car they looked puny. The StopTechs are ugly IMO.

Maybe the AAM TT kit, but I prefer NA for these cars.

I think modding and tinkering with it is half the fun. It's definitely not an investment of any sort more so a hobby/toy.
