If you guys mass produce this i hope Infiniti sees it and decide to make it even if its for a limited time or something but we need this option.!! #savethemanuals
It’s still a POS ricer, interior is about 10 YEARS BEHIND other luxury cars and the performance subpar MASSIVE waste of $$$ Infiniti’s are ripping people off with outdated technology outdated interiors and subpar performance compared to all of their competitors. It’s almost criminal.
I cant get over the front it looks like a shark with a big ass forehead 🤣 but the rear is nice. No more circle taillights that's definitely the end of an era for the Skylines
@@jimmypena2442 There are modules that are sold on the Facebook Q50/Q60 pages that adds android auto and apple carplay to the top screen. Even ones that add a full Android tablet experience paired with those two. I have one of these, it's great.
I’m pretty sure there is a manual swap for every car it’s just about are you willing to pay for that amount of work and for probably the months your car will be out of service.
You guys could make a fortune if you put together a parts list, template cut set, and produce some of the custom parts for a manual swap kit for the Q60/Q50’s. I’m on the fence between a Q50 and a IS 350. So if I get the Q50 I’ll DEFINITELY be interested.
Obd1andDown its gonna come out they already released the specs only for the inline four tho but im sure you could pull off manny swaps easy for the supra just buy the b58 manual trans
Obd1andDown stop being a pussy about it if you really want it youll swap it dont be a hardass about just be glad that came out with a nice car it didnt make sense for them to come out with the manual option because most base sports cars dont come with it and noone wants to drive manuals anymore
You guys need to get this thing on the smoking tire it will get some awesome publicity... Also I really want to hear what Zack and Matt think of the car.
fuck that pan handler. smoking tire is a joke now, matt will make it just another podcast so he can pan handle super chats. roads untraveled would be a better option
I’m doing the swap myself right now So far I have it runing and driving I have a few more kinks to work out but I got the limp mode off and it’s been decent so far If your interested in the kit I have pieced together let me know it’s basically bolt on so far
ABC Garage it sounds horrible, Infiniti are selling them because late in the g37, to q60 they sat on dealer lots. You stupid manual lovers complain “oh save the manuals, but don’t buy them.” The truth is manual sit on lots . Also the q60 transmission is designed to be smooth, not fast. It has nothing to do with INFINITI to be cheap. You guys forget not everyone is trying to be merc or Alfa Romeo. Infiniti has a goal of what they want their cars to be a certain customer and they obtain it I think. The only problem I see if they are not updating and coming out with cars soon enough.
You done did it. It's beautiful, I have a 14' Q60s with the manual transmission. The only thing I'd really miss in the new redsport is my stickshift. I have hope now
The reason why I’m not into the new Q’s is because no manual Tran option and also electronic steering. I’m a G35 HR boy! That being said this it the best Q I’ve seen! Nice
Honestly, I hope Nissan/Infiniti seriously contemplates putting a manual in the car after seeing this video! Just looking at the fit and finish, your team has already put the effort in developing and testing the new transmission, so I think this would be viable for them to just take your design and mass produce it. Unfrontunately, the $10,000 dollar question is, would be buy it if they made it?
Now to find a way to tell the ECM to get it off of limp mode and start building boost because this is just majestic and the fact of how a lot of things look factory is amazing
I have the 7 speed. I feel like it could shift faster than it does from the factory. I've noticed that it shifts faster if you're heavy on throttle and shift at say 4k rpm vs it shifting on it's own at redline. Not not sure why it does that. But it's very noticeable.
Dear God thank you all😭😭😭, save the manual!!! I was upset when infiniti discontinued the 6 speed after the G37 coupe.Is it safe to say the sedan could work as well?
@@NickLetsom one last question, from what you see, and understanding there are varying differences, do you believe with an adapter plate the vr38dett would mate to a manual trans? I'd get a wreck Gtr for this alone
I did a 6 speed swap on my g37 sedan, so a 3.7 q50 shouldnt be much different. And seeing how nissan does things, it should be exactly the same for a vr sedan. Once more people do it, the kinks will get worked out and it should get cheaper to do. Fingers crossed.
Excellent work fellas. There's some many purest left this is definitely needed. Sure paddle shift is nice but to me it takes away from the driving experience. 👍
It is wonderful Nissan continued with the 6MT in the new Z. A shame there can't be a new Q60 with manual with the LSD, i'd totally want one. Beautiful car.
So I have a g37s 6spd. With this auto to manual swap on the new q60, its starting to look like a possible engine swap to my car! Can you guys do vr swap to the 370z /g37 chasis? and make a kit for it? id fork out the cash to buy one instead of doing a turbo kit for the vq.
Shaun Kellister this car was brought to our dealership (Infiniti on Camelback ) last Saturday and I have to tell you I think we would have a line a mile long if this was on our lot for sale. Great Job Guys! Thanks for coming out
This car is drop dead gorgeous... what slave does the MT euro spec use? Flywheel and trigger plate? Cant those work on this swap? Im just curious to what slave was used.
This is still with the stock ECU (mostly)! Really the engine management system on these cars is just years ahead of any standalone on the market, so stock + EcuTek is going to be the way to go. We had to make some tweaks to the tune to make the ECU happy and allow the car to run and drive, but other than that, it's only moderately tuned to run a little more boost.
@@NickLetsom that's really interesting to hear about the ECU. This means the platform really didn't get the respect it deserves. I've heard the shifts are the weak point on high HP. I was referencing this car against "the new Supra", which in really not a fan of. Any thought of developing modified stock turbos?
Hurry up and make a kit already! I want this!
If you guys mass produce this i hope Infiniti sees it and decide to make it even if its for a limited time or something but we need this option.!! #savethemanuals
At last have it as an option or I say just drop it into the Z from factory. Wonder what would be the weight difference
#savethemanuals
It'll sell like 10 a month is the entire USA
Yuck you couldn’t pay me to drive this riced out garbage
I think a new Z will come with this 400HP engine with a stick shift option in 2022 or so.
Take it to the dealer and ask them to change the transmission oil.
Neil We plan on doing some fun pranks with it 😅

God the q60 is a drop dead gorgeous car, and with a manual its is now a dream car of mine! And im a lexus fanatic!
DIAMLER same. If only they could fix their infotainment, the dual stack screens are cool but the graphics are so old.

Not all heros wear capes...good job!!!
When I worked at Infiniti this dude with a 2014 or 2015 blue q50 manual swapped would come in. It was vq37 so it was easier for him
Was that the guy that fabbed his own center console? We've talked to him before and his work is really impressive!
Concept Z Performance YES it is him. Small world

@@rowboyto156 Agreed. That channel is absolute trash now
Damnnnn I always said I would go for this car if it was manual ! This is awesome !!! Wish Infiniti did make a manual option this car is sexy
For real! I have a G35 and thought this would look great alongside the Q60 but I want a manual
I’m doing the swap myself right now

Literally I've been waiting for this ever since this car came out. Dope ass build
Theres a q50 manual trans swapped in Queens NY making high 600shp
I'm on LI. Where in queens can I get this done
Kyle Mohan save your self some money drive to the banks of the hudson put a cement block on the Accelerator
Yea....a 3.7..it was much easier
Is it add still?
Is it awd still?
Should have came stock with a manual

I liked the video just by the title World's first manual Infiniti Q60 Red Sport, before fully watching it CZP thumps up
Yeesssss, it's here! Great job guys!
This is the definition of good content.
Please make a kit for it!
Frankenstein that looks and works so good! Fantastic effort getting all to work like OEM would produce manual.
Please manualize more cars!!!! #savethemanuals indeed!
👌👌👌
Love those q60 coups, add a manual Incredible!!, these guys are Trendsetters, great work.......
The Q60 is definitely the car I plan on buying in near future
Manual cars will be the Holy Grail in 20 years...
They are hard to find already. Been looking for a manual is300 but it’s hard.
No lie brother
They already are....
Watching this video at the moment while sitting in my 2017 Q60.
You guys are a true hero. 👏
I'm telling you guys, you will make it work, you will perfect it and sell it as a kit when its time for me to upgrade my '08 G35!!!
👌🏽 THIS would be the ONLY way I'm letting go of mine as well!
Would've bought a q60 if it had a manual this is beautiful
A transmission swap kit for this would be nice iv always wanted to manual swap a q50 sedan though
If you guys make a kit for this Im on board with my Q50 project. Already bought 3/4 of the AMS bolts ons from you
The work this took and how it came out is just amazing to think about
Nick is lookin' REAL ROIDED UP and jacked in this video. Keep up the "hard work"!
Man that's SIIIICK bruh!!! Great job guys. Looks like it took alot of work but daaaamn well worth it
The reason why I’m not into the new Q’s is because no manual Tran option and also electronic steering. I’m a G35 HR boy! That being said this it the best Q I’ve seen! Nice
Fantastic job! I hope a kit is still in the works!
This is great I would love the q50 in a 6mt
YES. MT on a q60 is dreams 🤤
Doing Infiniti’s job for em 😔
I buy all my parts from these guys- great vid!! Keep them coming..
This is amazing, all I can say is WELL DONE!
Love the 300zx’s in the back

Hello, I would like to know how much it costs to place a manual transmission on my Infiniti Q60 Red Sport, thank you.
Now to find a way to tell the ECM to get it off of limp mode and start building boost because this is just majestic and the fact of how a lot of things look factory is amazing
It's good now, that was just one of many roadblocks we encountered during the build process
I have the 7 speed. I feel like it could shift faster than it does from the factory. I've noticed that it shifts faster if you're heavy on throttle and shift at say 4k rpm vs it shifting on it's own at redline. Not not sure why it does that. But it's very noticeable.
This makes my excited for new z

The interior stuff is all from the European diesel sedan, so if anything it should be easier
@@NickLetsom one last question, from what you see, and understanding there are varying differences, do you believe with an adapter plate the vr38dett would mate to a manual trans? I'd get a wreck Gtr for this alone

Wow, I’m glad to see the boys of CZP at it again. The last time I remember was from my350z and g35driver days (eons ago)!
Excellent work fellas. There's some many purest left this is definitely needed. Sure paddle shift is nice but to me it takes away from the driving experience. 👍
kseries27 paddle what ? Fuck that lol
It is wonderful Nissan continued with the 6MT in the new Z. A shame there can't be a new Q60 with manual with the LSD, i'd totally want one. Beautiful car.
That is really awesome we need more stick shift car on the market
I want this on my q50
Love that sound of that Q60
Damn that Q60 looks good 😍
You guys are bad ass for doing this.
How much is a manuel swap on a. Q60
Please make a conversion kit 🙌🏽🙌🏽
Been collecting parts for my Sedan to do the MT swap. Just need the management now. 😓
When the 400z comes out, you can transfer its transmission to the q60.
Really ¿
The Skyline is back!
is than an s15... in the US??? 2:48
So I have a g37s 6spd. With this auto to manual swap on the new q60, its starting to look like a possible engine swap to my car! Can you guys do vr swap to the 370z /g37 chasis? and make a kit for it? id fork out the cash to buy one instead of doing a turbo kit for the vq.
k7SSD did you see the video.. of the yellow 370z? They swapped the VR30 in it lol. I think its under z1motorsports.
If you can make a kit for this. I would then be interested in getting one. Or one for the q50s.
Now that its been a few years, whats the update on this car?
Wow that is really nice, good job guys. Makes me wish that was my car.
Damn sounds so good! I'd love to do a manual swap on my 2018 - Q50
Everyone so hellbent on swapping a Maxima, til now I haven't seen anyone try it with it's superiors!
Bad ass!! props to you guys, shit is so fuking clean even underneath
Would be nice to see the dealer&techs reaction. 😂😂😂
Shaun Kellister this car was brought to our dealership (Infiniti on Camelback ) last Saturday and I have to tell you I think we would have a line a mile long if this was on our lot for sale. Great Job Guys! Thanks for coming out
You guys need the Infiniti resonated muffler its so good..
Awesome work!
Excellent!! When building a project like this, it's a very, very, good thing that the end product feels "ordinary"😄
Thank you for your service.
Great job guys. How is the manual transmission holding up with the Q60?
What size tires and wheels do you have on it? Looks great.
Are you guys going to make an adaption kit ? I’d definitely pay for it
i would like a q50 red sport manual
Será que esse câmbio serve no fx45 ano 2008
Masterpiece, also, not sure if it's my phone speaker, does it drone that bad??
This car is drop dead gorgeous... what slave does the MT euro spec use? Flywheel and trigger plate? Cant those work on this swap? Im just curious to what slave was used.
All of the powertrain stuff wasn't usable because it's all for the 2.1T Diesel, so totally different from the VR30 stuff
since this is 2 yrs or more how’s the car now?? Any updates?
What would this cost to have done by you? Can you talk about reliability?
If this becomes a kit. U guys will capitalize soo hard.
Producing a swap kit ?
I'm still waiting for a manual swap kit so I can do my Q60
I feel like the shifter sits a lil too low, but it’s a nice concept! 🔥🔥
Next time: we manual swap the new Toyota z4 coupe.
cloud ix There’s already a company that makes a kit. It’s $11k.
Swapping out and voiding a BMW warranty sounds like a really good idea...NOT
Very very very cool...... Was there an ECU change as well?
Wonder if you can use the GTR manual trans for AWD versions

Fantastic job guys
We need to see this run vs a new Z
always see it at the del taco meet in Avondale clean w the R35🥰
This car is soooo good lookin
Im tented to go buy a q60 and bring it to you how much would this cost lol
I’m curious what the cost would be also since all the work of figuring it out is done.
Does the 2014 q60 have the same transmission as the 370z?
Any changes to the ecm, isn't the car looking to switch gears?
So basically would this whole complete swap work and be the same on a Q50 Red Sport
Nice work fellas
Brooooo!! YOUR A FUCKING GENIUS!!!! Amazing! That’s Hella Dope!!!!! I Would So Go Buy This Car Manual Right Now!!!!
