Long time nissan owner jumps up to an Infiniti g35

Hi Everyone.

I just bought myself an 04' G35 coupe 6MT. I've owned two nissans before, both heavily modded, but this is my first Infiniti!

I had a 4th gen maxima with a vq35de swap, and a 97 240sx with a blacktop swap + upgraded turbo etc.. and I decided it was time for some more luxury along with the performance. I am looking forward to getting to know everyone and learning all I can about the g35! I'm planning to go FI, just have to sell a few things first to come up with the money, and of course I have to learn all I can about this platform.

LOL, D'oh! In my defense, I just had a baby girl two weeks ago and I haven't slept more than 3 hours straight since!

Thanks everyone! I'm very excited about the new G. At first I kinda missed my 240, but I'm sure this car will help me forget rather quickly I am now busy coming up with excuses to go out for a drive every 10 minutes or so, lol.

Yes, I plan on going FI sometime early next year (after the tax return ). Not sure if I'm going to throw a JWT TT or Greddy TT kit on the stock motor and run low boost, or go all out and build the short block first. I've been looking at the AEBS 4.3L stroker kit, and the Brian Crower 4.1L kit, but right now that's wishful thinking as I can't afford all of that. Perhaps if I find a good deal on a used turbo kit then I'll go with the all out build.
