Hello all,

It has been a long search, but I finally pulled the trigger. I am the proud owner of my new (to me) 2003 Infiniti G35 Coupe 6MT. Throughout the search, I couldn't decide whether or not to buy a coupe that was already heavily modded or a stock coupe and do all the works myself (FI, the whole deal!). After finding this one for the deal I got, I couldn't resist! Only 41,000 miles, and Vortech Supercharged (2.87) to the tune of over 400whp. What a feeling, and what a sound!

Next is a wheel change. The wheels on there are nice (20" Zinik Adrian's powedercoated black), but I wouldn't mind getting down to a set of light 19's. Also, the 3" Y-pipe is in somewhat rough shape simply because of how low it is and what the road look like in New England. Thankfully, I will be moving to Maryland in the very near future, and I look forward to making many new friends in the G35 world!!!

During my search, I have read countless hours on this great forum to learn everything I can about the cars. This is truly a phenominal site, very well run, and VERY helpful! Thanks to all who put in the work to help others out.

Welcome aboard. That coupe is pretty clean with stupid low mileage. Congrats and enjoy!

 

MMmm day 1 = boost. Day 1 was a good day

haha, welcome and congrats on the fine pickup!

 

how much did u get it for?

 

I was hoping someone would ask that. What do you think this car is worth??? I'm interested to hear a little bit about what people here would pay before I tell you how good of a deal I actually got.

Any input is appreciated.

 

well the vortech supercharger alone is worth about 5k, and patman530's g which is one of the nicest ive ever seen ( https://g35driver.com/forums/g35-car...low-miles.html ) is going for about 25k. considering how many mods are already on this and the condition imo, id say yours is worth about $20k-25k but that's just my opinion. patman is crazy to let his baby go for only that much

 

Nice pick up! Love the color

 

I'd say 22k...

 

That's interesting, I will be sure to check out Patman's G soon. Sounds like he's got a lot going on there...

Based on what I've heard for prices, I guess I did pretty well ($15,500). I have always loved the G coupes, they are beautiful (and the color of mine is my favorite). And even though I will have to find a little spare change for a winter beater, this car was impossible to pass up.

Just picked up a set of brand new 20" staggered gunmetal Axis Pentas this past week. They are wrapped in brand new Federal Evo 595 tires all the way around. Not a scratch whatsoever on any of the wheels as they were only used for a few shows on another G. Picked those up for $1050!!! The deals keep coming... Next is an exhaust. I am eyeing the HKS Hi-Power. I'll wait to find a deal for that too.

 

You did very well finding a low mileage coupe with all those mods at that price! Good idea switching to 19" wheels/tires, should improve the ride quality. Before you jump on the HKS exhaust do a SEARCH and discover all the issues with quality control and the restriction in their crossover. To correct it requires installing a Magnflow x-pipe in place of the crossover. The results are an exhaust the flows well and sounds even better. Good Luck!

Gary,

I have never read anything about that. Do you have any recommendations of which type of exhaust you suggest based on the mods you see I have listed? I think there is a great setup with what I have now, but based on the Y-pipe that I need to replace soon, I think it would be smart to replace the entire header back setup. Do you agree? I like the thought of the 'true dual' exhaust type, are there any you recommend?

Your help is much appreciated.

 

Well you didn't really accomplish your goal since the Pentas and the 595s are heavy pigs, but they look damn good.

Congrats on a phenomenal deal if the car runs well.
