Latest updates:
05.18.10, GTspec Strut Tower Brace Installed. I have also received a set of Tein H-Tech springs to
install at a later date.
04.11.10, I have started the push to upgrade the performance of the G37 coupe. Over the last
couple of weeks I have installed a set of K&N drop-in panels, upgraded the tune using a Cobb
AccessPort, and have installed a Invidia Gemini cat back system. Next up? Invidia High Flow
cats to be installed when time allows which will be followed by a Stage 2 update.
Stock Track Time:
11.08.08, Took the G out to the drag strip for the first time. I was hoping for low
14's but was happy to settle for a 13.835 @ 101.89. Not bad for a stock automatic.

After years of driving my 2002 Nissan Maxima, it was time to upgrade. For years I had stated I wanted a
Infiniti G35 coupe and I guess I waited long enough to have this next-generation come out right around the
time I was getting serious into purchasing one. In June of 2008 I took the plunge and picked up a new G37
Sport Coupe.
While this is primarily my work car, my SO put her foot down on a Sport 6mt model (she can't drive a manual) so I had to settle for a
G37 Journey which is the automatic version. The color is Ivory Pearl which I found out later is a 1-year
color and only offered in 2008. The car also has the Premium Package and the Sport Package.

Never being one to let things stay stock for very long I actually had a jump on this one as I
ordered an aftermarket rear spoiler when I purchased the car. The spoiler was added to the car
a couple of weeks after purchase. I have also tinted the windows (35% front / 20% rear),
upgraded the factory HID's to 6000k, upgraded the stock foglights with a 6000k HID kit and I have
replaced the headlight running light with a LED.
All in All I give it a thumbs up. I love it and that's what counts.

Upon the purchase of my 2008 G37 coupe the wife took over ownership of the 2002 Nissan Maxima.
That lasted less than a year and she was ready for something different. After she scoured the internet
looking for something she would like (from Acura to Lexus to Caddies) she found a used 2007 G35 Sport Sedan that
interested her. I made a run to take a look at it and came home with this fully loaded sedan.
