Another fail for the early 03 5AT Sedans - Sprint Booster doesn't work
Since Technosquare stopped doing ECU flashes, I recently bought the new Sprint Booster to get some more throttle response. The Sprint Booster now have a 3 setting control setup: 'off', 'normal', and 'race'. They call these Sprint Boosters "Selectable". I ordered one on Tuesday and got it yesterday. I attempted to instill it and the Sprint plug that goes into the pedal assembly socket won't seat fully. It needs to go about 3 to 4 mm deeper. The issue is the pedal socket is shaped differently on the 03 early sedan. I opened up the 2003 G35 sedan FSM and sure enough, the Type 1 (early sedan 5AT) have a different pedal assembly. Go figure.
Sprint Booster wasn't aware of the problem, but now they are. They're actually being helpful. I researched the 02/03 Maxima since the early 2003 G35 sedans share some electrical arrangements, but the Sprint Booster part no. for the 02/03 Maxima auto is the same as the 02-06 G35 auto so it looks like a no go.
Sadly, I'm one step closer to getting rid of this car. Too much compromise for what I really want to do.

g37
had the same problem. just wrecked my ride last night here in NY.
had 03 g35 sedan rwd. I will be parting out my ride since I'm not covered by the insurance. Maybe I am a bad driver and stupid enough to drive out my RWD under the icy road condition. never had a problem with my g35. but could been better if it was an AWD IMO.
g37x is a way to go I think if you love infiniti and see lot of snow in your area. get a coupe! thats so damn sexy.
I'm getting one of those!
