Best parts to increase 0-60 times

I'm sure weight is probably the biggest variable when addressing 0-60 times; however, was curious as to what other variables would have a fairly large impact on the 0-60 times as well. I have a 2004 g35x and mostly concerned with improving the times on this model.

a lighter wheel/tire combo will be very noticeable.
rotating mass is the enemy.

I was gonna say slicks but you got a AWD....

Bolt-ons will help a bit. If you want to spend more money, than a TT setup or supercharger.

If you wana keep it cheap you can strip your interior haha. But to do that on a G is a sin IMO

Well you have an AWD (wouldn't for 0-60 times the AWD be faster than the RWD?)

Why would you want to increase 0-60 times?? I'd want them lowered myself. Heavy rims will increase it for sure though, maybe a smaller exhaust?

Power to Weight ratio, increase power or reduce the unsprung weight. Also, transgo valvebody upgrade for snappier shifts

Anyways, you can change your gears. That might hurt your top end though and might hurt gas mileage (the RPMs will be a little higher when cruising).

There really are no great ways to increase your 0-60 times other than the obvious (turbo or blower). I would either get a chip to make it feel more responsive or a grounding kit would also better the driving experience.
