I’ve had 2 g35 sedans and drift cars now and I can’t recommend them more to anyone who wants to get into drifting. Hyped so watch the next few videos about this car
Awesome opener to your G35 build series! We enjoy checking out a high end build as much as anyone, but we are equally into lower cost builds as well....really as long as its modified! Very excited to see how the G35 build progresses and more than proud to be part of the journey
As an owner of an 03 g35 sedan awesome seeing people start to see the potential of this platform it seems to always get overshadowed by the 350z and g35 coupe
I love my g35 6mt 04 i have this car for ove10year daily drive i have ove 15k on it i love when i beat newer cars 😊 is not that fast but i get the respect
03 sedan 6mt owner here, you did the right thing and have one of the most beautiful well handling sedans ever made. This is coming from someone that never liked infinitis until i got the chance to own one, now i want them all.
My buddy has those same BRIDE seats in his JZX90. When I take photos of him drifting, you can just barely see his eyes😂 those seats sit dummy low, idk how people drive in them
Crisp footage and exciting new chapter! Make Sedans Great Again, as per Checkpoint Japan example! As always, thank you very much, looking forward to 2024 drift action 😊
I’m on the look out here in the UK. A lot of people bought cheap g35 skylines 4drs as imports, mainly 2.5 auto (basically the cheapest way to own a “skyline”) But due to repair & running costs, they pop up under £2k. We also get a lot of rusty Z’s manual runners for under £3k. Going to build one over time, use a GT donor for the Rays & Brembos, add spacers BC’s & a wrap and that’s a sick jammer. That will eventually replace my 330ci.
SO RAD! the G is the wicked platform and already looking great in the first ep. Looks like I have another set of headlights to polish when I come out haha
Love these G35 sedans! All the benefits of the 350z platform but with big body sedan style. I drifted one for years and loved it. Unfortunately the 03-04s only made 260hp stock with an auto trans though. The 05-06s made 300
I think with test pipes, plenum spacer and intake + a tune we should be able to free up a bit more power, but for now we’re already thrilled with how quick the car is compared to most of the stuff we’ve driven/streeted in the past.
@@CheckpointJapanRight on man, and since I've got your attention, I recommend an Admin Tuning intake. It's the largest diameter intake available. Most intakes are smaller because they can be ran without tuning, this one is large enough to disrupt accurate MAF readings BUT since you'll be tuning anyway you can enjoy the extra power with no issue. Admin Tuning also does remote tuning so something to look into. Not a paid spokesperson, just had a good experience with them
@@CheckpointJapanI recommend doing all latest fixes that Nissan did for later vq motors. Like the cooling and what not, I believe they also fixed it's oiling problems also.
I always liked the G35 sedan, always over-shadowed by other platforms and bad stigma from "kids" at take overs. Being a older tuner, I built a 86 Corolla, plenty of honda's, couple mr2's and svt focus. I definitely will nab a 06 or newer G35 sedan.😎
