I personally own a '16 V37 red sport awd, i wasn't a fan of this 7AT at first. However i installed a little auxillary cooler for the trans fluid, and it changed everything about the drivetrain when i throw it in MS and drive mode in Sport+. I also installed a throttle controller and the car launches extremely hard. I love my RS, i will add i definitely want more power, down the rabbit hole i go...again.....
Honestly, I think for the price, it's still well worth it. Currently looking for an awd q50 3.0 and I've found some 2018 models, with only 20-30k miles for around 20-26k and with a e85 tune, uggraded cooling, catch cans, and an exhaust, the car will push 450-500 whp with a cost total of 26-35k. It's such a bargain.
@@maperformance I have a question since I'm still new to learning about cars. Since modding it will void warranty. Where is a good place to service the car? Would it be the same place you modified it?

if you own, or are planning on owning a VR30, make sure to purchase a Gates belt. the OEM belt is not good. that's one of the biggest issues on all models p/n: K060766A other than that, I LOVE my Q50! 😁 can’t wait for all these new parts to come out once the 400z hits the streets

Q50/Q60's are the Ultimate Daily car. Used versions with 45k miles you can get 500 Crank HP and all that luxury for less than the price of a new fully equipped Altima or Camry. 😎👍
watchout, those Altima drivers believe they own a 4 second quarter mile car. Just ask any Altima owner in Phoenix AZ. They're the fastest thing on the road. No.. fastest vehicle ever conceived of.
@TheReal TampabayGen I mean people aren't tuning Camrys and they sure as hell aren't twin turbo. Nissan can make a V6 just as well as Toyota, if not better. Not sure which part of them is shit tbh.
I’m scared of my turbos blowing I just want mods to improve reliability so I decided a heat exchanger would be a good investment. I’ve never had a fast car before so I’m more that happy with stock 300hp need the car to last 32k miles rn
This comment is not a deterrent. I am still a 2018 Q60 silver sport owner. This is my experience in the past year. Purchased used, due to a prior loss, with 28k from Infiniti dealer. I wanted a comfortable daily I could easily wrench on when I wanted. I planned to start doing the usual upgrades. At 36k (still stock) I started to occasionally hear a whistle at startup and or acceleration, but not consistent. Changed the drive belt in my garage but that didn’t help. Next culprit was turbos. Took it to Infiniti and sure enough both turbo seals were bad. Specifically noted Gen 1 turbos on service sheet. They replaced both turbos with the Gen 2 (based on part numbers), heat insulators, sensors, “turbocharger INL”, “Nissan long life”, gaskets, clamps, bolts and turbo oil, and EXM update due to newer turbos. This was all covered under warranty. This Q was a one prior owner, clean Carfax. No background on prior owner but very clean at purchase. Only a worn off A/C button, which I managed to fix without removing dash or infotainment system. (Super easy cheap OEM fix). It’s my daily driver in south Florida. Some spirited red lights, fun on-ramps and swift follow-the-leader trips across the alley, still have the same tires at purchase is what I’m saying. Long story not short my stock q60, driven as intended stock, did have turbo failure. I would personally get another daily before I mod this past cooling/intake/exhaust/simple tune. IMO if you want to drift, track or quarter mile only, it probably isn’t the car for you. If you want a fun entry level luxury daily or an affordable comfortable weekend GT type car this may suit your needs. Having the option to weekend wrench some high gain bolt ons and quick turnover back to road made my decision. I’ve also found a lot maintenance parts are the exact same as Nissan Z parts at half the price from Nissan.
Yes your going to tear apart a newish infinity just to shove a manual trans from a 370z, a car you can find second hand for what kind of money you would spend shoving the trans into a Q50... Only to end up with a slower car that is hacked together....instead of just twin turbo-ing a 370Z or just buying a 400z... Holy crap, you 'BuT Mu MaNuAl' kids are beyond retarded. It's a luxury car, it's expected to have the ability to leave it in auto mode and loft around town. Not only are you kids silly, you don't have class.
Me too, I currently own a 370z and its very fun I love it but it sucks to daily the car because you have no room and only one cup holder that is in your way when you shift lol but its super fun to drive it. Now I'm thinking of selling it to buy something more practical and im looking at this q60s
Ok so I watched this video about 4-5 months ago got a 2022 q50 and needed it to be louder that exhaust you guys put on it the ARC GRIP CATBACK EXHAUST with AMS intakes just stock it sounds amazing I have MAP Performance full down pipes but I’m saving up for a heat exchanger so I can start saving for a tune ones that’s done I’m planing on building the outside make it look good and then jump right back into the engine iv done everything myself including the exhaust with just jacks stands and little blood got it done the intakes were a pain in the *** but got them in and it sounds magnificent
I had a 2018 Q60 New at the time. check engine light at 1200 miles, fixed.... at 4000 miles both turbos and engine had to be replaced. a turbo went bad and sent metal throughout the engine and other turbo. I bought it because of how it looked. Bose stereo All mid-range. :( I now have a BMW M550 This is bad ass!!!
This is a great video. Your opinion on the exhaust from the factory is on point. In fact I have a Buick Enclave and other than the pumped in audio on my Q50 RS400, the comparison is pretty good!
I considered a Q50 or Q60 before buying my F30, but at the end of the day, I couldn't part with BMW. I'm on my fourth BMW and the driving experience is just too good. I wish BMW would have kept hydraulic steering, but even that's not much of a con. Both cars are near identical in terms of performance and potential. The support is also everywhere for BMW's. The Q's are still good looking though and I enjoy seeing them around. Maybe next time I'll more seriously consider buying one.
Why? It’s not as fast. I can only understand if you like the feeling of driving manual otherwise there’s no reason. You can’t shift as fast as modern transmission
@@lilgoon8613 Well, that's probably the obvious reason. Who cares if its "not as fast" when it's still got the same mods. Manual will always be for drivers.
@@lilgoon8613 It’s only not as fast because the manuals have to be tuned differently from factory to meet emissions. Get an aftermarket manual in an aftermarket setup though and you’re not gonna get as fast with an automatic. But that requires $$.
@@drummeralex9198 ok get an after market auto than something like a power glide if you want to compare aftermarket. I was also just talking stock here not aftermarket.
My question I’m looking for is… do I need to buy a red sport? Is the motor the same internally? Or is it just different tune etc. I will be manual swapping it. I see you got non red. There is not much info on the actual true difference. Just people assuming stuff.
People complaining about seeing Chargers everywhere definitely don’t understand how many Infiniti’s there are everywhere you look. Yes it gets old too.
I don’t see many Q60s and not like mine I made mine stand out some and plan to still do mods love my Q60 2020 I have a Mercedes G Wagon as well and hands down love and drive my Q60 way more 🥰
Yup, seems like they don't hold their value really well. It's part of the reason I don't plan on getting rid of mine. I'll just keep it and drive it until it falls apart on me.
The vr30 motors are made out of recycled coke cans, they have known coolant consumption issues, and small cheaply made turbos. I put 15k into mine, then realized I’m burning half a L of coolant every month. Was time to sell. Good power potential, but you will start to have headaches eventually. Mine was 2019 Q50 Luxe remote tuned on ECUTEK on 94 pump making around 430whp/wtq on high boost. I had every supporting mod also.
Infotainment is wonky though. Really wish it was just one screen. Other than that love these. Have a g37x coupe with the s breaks, stillen intakes, invada Gemini exhaust, niche m130. Tuned to 300whp. The m129,130 looks great but pain to wash and mount to tires.
if you want to buy new turbos or blow your engine up, you better be doing 2500-3k oil changes....NEVER do 10k oil change haha thats asking for new motor haha

hi, Could you give advise I have 2.0 it is not 4wd. I want to upgrade and get more horse power. I did only tunnig 211 hp to 248 hp thats would be good. but May be turbo etc. I will be waiting your reply.
Nah lol the turbos don't go out because of the lack of venting. The vr30 is just weak on stock parts when it starts pushing more power. When people upgrade fueling injectors belts cooling etc and have good tunes with more boost they do fine with or without the BOV
So apparently this cars engine platform is gonna be in the 400z does that mean engine mods will work interchangbly? Is it possible to insert a 400z manual transmission???
My question is why modify at all? One of my gripes with this community of people are those who constantly whine about the cost of the cars and how much they won't spend to get one, BUT then these same people will spend thousands of dollars on modifications. It's already a beautiful car, but just my two cents.
This seemed pretty interesting and true. I have a 2017 q50 3.0t silver sport stock. I bought it few months back and I’m at 39k miles, I plan on keeping the car for a while and will start doing small exterior mods and I’m confused about if I should work on performance or wait a year or two and then maybe do it or ?
I'm waiting til I'm out of warranty on my '18 silver sport, then going to a heat exchanger, exhaust, tune, and maybe lower down pipes. Bigger turbos are also on the table

i Own 2016 Q50 Diesel In Germany the Motor is a OM651 from Mercedes Benz the Transmission is a 7G Tronic plus from Mercedes its a good Deal here in Germany. I Tuned it from 170ps 400nm to 250ps 510nm its not that much but its enough for germany.
Left the G37 platform and was leaning towards the q60… But they never upgraded the trans unfortunately. Copped a 340i instead and been gapping Qs since
This testimonial seems very common nowadays 🤣 same tho... I'm not sad that I left the platform, but to each their own
Ew they haven't? Wtf. That's disappointing to hear
How's the 340i holding up in terms of reliability?
@@rudyl.103 At stage 2+ pushing 493whp w/ 47k miles. Holding strong man, thankfully no issues. BMW’s reliability on the B58 platform is solid. So much so, Toyota tapped their shoulder
Love the vid. What’s the average cost of replacing the turbos and what brand can you suggest? Thanks in advance.
No padel shifters in the Q50 (lower trims)? My mom's hyundai Palisade has paddle shifters haha.
hi, Could you give advise I have 2.0 it is not 4wd. I want to upgrade and get more horse power. I did only tunnig 211 hp to 248 hp thats would be good. but May be turbo etc. I will be waiting your reply.
I have a 2018 Q60 S w/ AWD and I'm leaving it the fuck alone.
😭😭 I have one as well, I’m modifying it!!
Wouldn’t installing the hks bov’s help with preventing turbos goin out?
nah its good for the sound tho
I heard it does.
helps a little bit yea.
No sir, this myth was proven false 2 years ago.
People still install them for the tsssh tsssh tsssh 🤷🏾♂️
Nah lol the turbos don't go out because of the lack of venting. The vr30 is just weak on stock parts when it starts pushing more power. When people upgrade fueling injectors belts cooling etc and have good tunes with more boost they do fine with or without the BOV
Cannot wait for the new Z!!!!
Me too!
Yes manual swap kit please!!! Or use the new Z trans!!
Please throw the 6 spd in here! I would buy it if I know I can manual swap it.
I'm assuming these mods will work with the new Z. I plan on getting one with a 6spd.
How i can modify fast my infinity q50 red sport 2014 ,
He have intake and catback . I can instaled superchaller how do you see
So apparently this cars engine platform is gonna be in the 400z does that mean engine mods will work interchangbly? Is it possible to insert a 400z manual transmission???
Thanks, just right
We need the manual swap asap !
U need to buy the S package it’s a Must
I can't wait till you'll do
Is it possible to add turbo to a 2014 Q60
Manual swap and slide 😊
Do the swap please good content bro 👌
You should do the Lexus is200t that would be super helpful
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@maperformance I ordered an exhaust from you guys and shipping was fast and I loved it. Thank you 🙏🏾
2014 bmw 640i gran coupe xdrive
My question is why modify at all? One of my gripes with this community of people are those who constantly whine about the cost of the cars and how much they won't spend to get one, BUT then these same people will spend thousands of dollars on modifications. It's already a beautiful car, but just my two cents.
I would not know because I bought the Q60S Red Sport.
Aftermarket support is a little to be desired on this platform. Hopefully that will change with the new Z.
It will !
Just bought a 22 Q RS what can i do to it?!!! Some help lol. Im assuming same specs at w1 and previous models
Yeah put that manual in dat thang
Will this work for the 2016 red sport 400 q50?
This seemed pretty interesting and true. I have a 2017 q50 3.0t silver sport stock. I bought it few months back and I’m at 39k miles, I plan on keeping the car for a while and will start doing small exterior mods and I’m confused about if I should work on performance or wait a year or two and then maybe do it or ?
No reason in waiting to go faster! It just depends on your budget!
Same here I have the Q60 2020 I want to increase the speed on my mine
@@ronniev7724 u ever do anything to it?
I'm waiting til I'm out of warranty on my '18 silver sport, then going to a heat exchanger, exhaust, tune, and maybe lower down pipes. Bigger turbos are also on the table
How do we like the Q70S 3.7 L?
