I think my car has a severe case of the "tip in" problem everyone keeps talking about. The touchy throttle, 0-15mph in an instant. My wife won't even drive the car. I've had a few TSB's done with no help to the problem.

Why are people even considering modding their G? Maybe a simple tint and wheels but cmon man. Kits, debadge, intakes, header, exhaust... All don't do jack to HP.. All those mod costing what? 5 grand? And it won't even knock off 1 second off the 1/4...

I'm not trying to go faster, my car is plenty fast. I just don't want to pull up beside another G and have it look exactly like mine. It's called personalizing. Besides, did I ever say anything about kits, debadging, intakes, headers or exhausts? Nope. Engine mods VOID WARRANTIES! Not my style.....

Not everyone is looking to mod their cars for the purpose of making them faster.

You don't seem to like your car (assuming you drive a G35) very much. Why exactly did you buy it? Just curious.

I bought it cause it looks nice. I know our cars aren't very fast. And modding me is a waste of money. Especially since the majority of the people either go back to stock or sell their car at a huge loss.

Yes, you can mod your car to "look" different... But a inake and exhaust really don't change the look that much sir.. But it is ur car, do whatever you want to it.

Wow, good luck with that. Is your car an early build? I haven't noticed that at all on mine like I said.

I really disagree, I think the G is plenty fast just the way it is. I mean, unless it's going to the track or something, even that, I went to a track day last spring, and was amazed at what stock G's were doing.

I'm trying to figure out who you are talking to...

No one even brought up putting an intake or exhaust on a car until you did. I would never do that to a brand new car and void all warranties on the engine.......
