@tim3058 Meh, my Evo hits a 100mph in 5 seconds now. ;) I haven't posted anything recently, trying to get a video of my new set up. Currently 520hp+, the old 0-80mph on my Evo was around 330-350whp.
@TheLover Want to try my Evo on for size? :) Traps low 12's on the 1/4 pass, 0-60 in low-mid 3's, and 0-80mph in 5's. The video I have up of my Evo is a bit slower, but it had less mods, bald tires, and it was untuned.
@x23JL13x Try it! Lol, I just got my FP Black (Garrett GT35R Ball Bearing) w/ a open dump downpipe set up. Pushing 450whp, ~510bhp. I'm going to Import vs Domestic in MIR this upcoming week.
@x23JL13x The video I have up now, made 365whp (~400bhp) on a dynojet. Currently making 450whp(~510bhp) I haven't gotten a change to update my videos. But I'll have one up soon.
Btw, I can respect the CTS-V it's one of the very few domestic cars that I can really appreciate. I'm trying to break into the low-flat 11's with my new set up though. Then I'll have a built motor, head, and trans by next year. Shooting to crush the R35 GT-R or the Vette ZR1.
@MarinoMan2726 It was using different wheels with no tpms on it. Also, for drag purposes, it is better to have lower tire pressure than to have the rate tire pressure. Better to have 5-10psi lower than what it's rated for, 'cause if not, chances of spinning the tires are higher.
These cars aren't made to compare with high-performance sedans like you guys are trying to compare them with. These compete with the BMW 3-Series, Mercedes-Benz C-Class, and Audi A4. Not a Subaru Impreza STI or a Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution. Sure they are fast but that is not specifically what they are made for.
@NattDogg01 At one point or another I probably did compare my Evo to the G35, but only because viewers asked. And the last time I brought up the Evo was because some guy was saying that the G35 was too slow, and I brought up my Evo, and then he started saying speed didn't matter. I know that there's a lot of talk about Evo and STi, but it's because one of the viewers were asking why I picked the Evo over the STi.
@JSlShow I understand. It just kinda aggravates me that people try to compare cars that aren't even made to compete with. The G35 is WAY better than the EVO and STI. I don't care what people say they are simply a higher quality car and are a lot easier to live with on a daily basis. Like I said, they are made to compete in a class of mid-level luxury cars. The EVO and STI are both track day beasts and the G35 is made to be comfortable and easy to live with while still being able to go fast.
@NattDogg01 Ehh... The Evo's a pretty comfortable car to be in. The Recaro seats supports your back pretty well, and the suspension isn't harsh. I've driven it from Washington, DC all the way up to Ontario, Canada. It was a one day trip, and I felt great. The Evo's also a sedan, so it's more convenient. Considering I had a G35 coupe.
But point being, you don't need luxury for it to be comfortable. But I won't go against you liking G35 over Evo/STi since it's a personal opinion.
@JSlShow I dong really see it as an underdog evos and STI's giver other high performance cars run for their money I'm talking about Porsche's,M3 vettes ect so pretty much from all these cars I would take N STI or evo :)
@dude nice as for me I have 16,500 left on my G and hopefully I will finish paying in two years and trade it in for a new g37 after I'm done paying that I'm defenatly going for the GTR :) got a question for ya how come u got the evo I know it's crazy fast n all but I see so many wrx n STI specially at my gym lol there is one linginfelter n 3 or 4 STIs
@diddy150 Good question, stock to stock comparison, the STi is a little faster than the Evo on a straight line. But the Evo X GSR blew the STi and the GT-R out of the waters when it came to handling. Of course, the GT-R was made for mid-long range courses. As to the Evo + STi were intended for short track + rally courses, since they have very close gears. But the Evo X broke 1.1g on stock tires and suspension, so it's one of the few cars that can do that in it's price range.
@diddy150 Second, although it is slower in the straight from stock to stock. The Evos in general has the better spooling capabilities thanks to it's MIVEC. It even allows bigger turbo applications like a GT35R to be spooled within the 3k range. Also, I have a ton of friends that owns WRXs and STis. So I guess you can say that I just wanted to be a little apart from my friends. But I love WRX and STis, I've never felt a reason to have that whole WRX+EVO rivalry.
@diddy150 But I think I like working on the Evo as a platform itself. I've worked on H(Boxer) motors, and they seem more of a headache to me. LOL, but I got a question. Do you still see the STi as the underdog of the Evo still? I think that's where most of the rivalry started, saying that the STi was the underdog. But to me, it seems like they've been, and still are just as good as Evos. But because people see the STi is the "underdog" of the two cars, more people like the STi it seems.
@335ipower11 BMWs are good cars but they don't come close to Japanese cars. Forget the evo which probably takes on any BMWs but the 3 series has only 230hp lol the g35 will rape that one n as for the M3 and M5 they're both tuned V8 400+ hp cars for them there is the GTR a 6 cyl with turbos will spit on their face lol BMW=fail
@diddy150 I think Euro cars are well made. They won't crap out aslong as you keep up with maintenance. And I think the E92 BMW 328i will give the G35 a good run. It's just that I don't like the ego behind BMW owners. But I won't lie, G35 owners have a pretty big ego too, lol.
But I personally like Audi RS4 or S5 much better than the BMW M3, as far as new cars goes. I still love the E36 M3. Btw, the new M3 is going to be a 6cyl TT too.
@diddy150 And I wouldn't compare the GT-R with the M3, they have 414hp, and it's also 15k+ cheaper. And the BMW M5 is just a big luxury sedan with a lot of power, but I believe BMW doesn't even produce them anymore. Lol, but even Keiichi Suchiya has said that European cars are better than Japanese cars, I wouldn't say it's a 100% true. But in most cases, they are, sadly. The biggest thing holding Japanese cars back is the "Gentlemen's Rule" where car makers agreed to not exceed 280hp factory.
@diddy150 After I'm done with my Evo, I'll be GT-R. ;)
Rebuilt motor + trans, excellent tuner at hand, w/ meth injection, hoping to break 600whp by next year. For now, I'll be getting it tuned to ~450whp(500hp+) for this fall. It'll be good enough to punish a M3 and M5 on the road.
@JSIShow Who cares if your fucking plastic eve can go from 0-60 in .2 seconds? its still a fucking eve and has no appeal. A BMW is a different story.....
@335ipower11 There's no end to a BMW owner's ignorance. You've said nothing related to cars besides BMW BMW BMW, first you complained about my G35 being slow, and now when I show you my Evo that's faster than your 335i. You go on complaing about how it doesn't matter if it's faster. Grow up and get a pair.
@335ipower11 first you bash the g35 because its "slow" then you bash an evo which will rape your 335i for being ugly? haha gotta love BMW owners. oh and nice video on your profile, sounds like your reving a civic...
@deadfluffy12 Thanks, my words exactly. I don't hate BMW, and BMW owners who are knowledgeable about cars. But people like 335ipower11 who's completely ignorant and hyped on ego are just a pain in the ass to deal with.
Anyways, I'll be getting my FP Black turbo within sometime end of summer or early fall. Stay tuned for an expected 450whp Evo X. Next year will be a rebuilt motor and trans, to break through ~550whp(safe+daily driver)
@335ipower11 Before you bash, you should look at my Evo 0-60 which did it in mid 3's, untuned + bald tires. Also I've torn up a couple of 335i w/ JB2 + 3 mods. Tyvm
@335ipower11 Also, this video is 3yrs old. I don't have that car anymore, and you should learn how to count. It's not quick, but it was still in the mid 5's. Anyways, unless I see a video from you beating 0-60 in mid 3's from my Evo, I'd keep quiet. Also, don't get into handling, 'cause the Evo X GSR broke 1.3g turns in track use, and was making .99g on the skidpad. As far as sport-luxury goes, I'd like to keep them separate. Considering I also have the BMW 750Li, which is almost never driven.
Have this exact make and year. Gorgeous car, AT as well is great. However, I wouldn't be putting too much rwhp into the thing if you don't rebuild the transmission into more of a enthusiast way, a regular G35 tranny will probably blow out of your car if you avoid doing so, in my opinion of course. On mine I plan to just put a nice exhaust, and some nice wheels. Keep it classy B-)
@MrJJModern A G35 transmission starts to crap out within the 350-400ft-lb range. But a full bolt-on w/ tune won't even be able to come near those figures. But I appreciate your opinion, I don't have the G35 anymore. I have a Evo X GSR now, future plan's will consist of a rebuilt motor and trans, 'cause their limits are 400ft-lbs as well, but my plan's to have a 500whp+ daily driver, rebuilt motor, rebuilt trans, rebuild heads, turbo/injector/pump/full bolt-ons.
Dude u start counting when the speed indicater moves not the revs....I don't rev high n start I just start from a dead stop no launching I just step on the gas
@diddy150 Not talking about brake/torque launching. I'm just saying, it would've helped to see the revs. Since most people count from when the revs goes up as to the speedometer.
@diddy150 Nice nice, but it would definitely help more to see when the revs start. 'Cause I counted mid 5's with my revs and counted near flat 5's with your speedometer. If I went by my speedometer as well, it would've been in either high 4's or flat 5's too.
@diddy150 But besides differential works, I don't see there being as much support for automatics. Including twin disk transmissions, it's still a new thing in the automotive industries. We've made a few stronger clutches, SSP being one of the top builders for dct transmission for the Evo X MR and the GT-R R35.
Btw, it's not whp that kills the transmission, it's the torque. And to me.. AGAIN, not trying to bash. But G35's breaks traction pretty easily, and with that amount of power, I know it wil
@diddy150 As good as the Atessa system that the Nissan uses in the AWD system. I still think they need a lot of work done for a good amount of RWD cars, as far as track use goes. Personally, I'd use the G35 for more of a stance(Canibeat/itsproper) stuff.
You guys know tiptronic is better than manual right cause there is no clutch your foot Is always on the gas pedal so when your shifting gears you don't lose boost. They knew a normal manual will have a trouble catching with a auto so they added 18 more horses.
@diddy150 DCT/SST/PDK Transmissions shift faster than manual. Tiptronic that the G35 offers is sluggish.
As far as heel n' toe maneuvers to slow down for turns, I can downshift two gears at a time if I wanted to.
The tiptronic system doesn't allow you to 2-step either. I've beaten automatics with similar power, it does not shift that fast. Lol, it's just an excuse that automatic drivers likes to make, imo. 80% of them not knowing how to drive manual itself.
@diddy150 Btw, what are you going to do in a automatic transmission, when you build a car with more than 400ft-lb? Since we're talking along the lines of forced induction?
What's there to be done to rebuild a automatic transmission for the G35.
I think manual's great, not only to drive, but to also rebuild.
Yeah the best I can offer is being a damned good driver, but I have to learn the intricacies of everything else LOL Can't wait...yeah I try to buy all my cars within that mileage. Is the STI known to fall apart after that mark though?
@diddy150 That is impressive, but you are almost on empty and this guy has a lot of gas in his car...it wouldn't make a huge difference but it does make a difference. Nice vid though :) I am on the market for a 6MT...
@AbstractChaos666 It's alright, my Evo's doing 0-60 in 3's with a full tank. LOL! Definitely go with the 6MT, and not the wannabe manual. Just be careful of the notorious Clutch Master Cylinder issue. If anything, try to stay away from the first year of it's generation, ex. 2003(1st gen), 2005(2nd gen). Stick with 04', 06', or 07'.
@AbstractChaos666 I'm starting to believe that the G35 is made more for stance than high performance. Unless you can dish out the money for high compression pistons and cams, it won't make much power through bolt-ons. I know, I've been there.
The video I have up of my Evo, is stock turbo, partial bolt-ons, untuned, with bald tires. Doing 0-80mph in the same time as the G doing 0-60mph.
And no, the Evo doesn't feel like a cheap, rough car. I love the Recaro seats, and handling/comfort is great.
@JSlShow Interesting...I've been thinking the same thing because I've heard a lot of bad things about the G35 performance wise :/ I drove a Lancer Ralliart (I think it's a grade shy of the Evo?) and it was a turboed 2.0 liter (paddles though...) and it was pretty quick and a very comfortable ride with the 4WD. The only problem is I haven't found any good deals so far on Evo's or Lancer's here in Miami FL >_<
@AbstractChaos666 It maybe a "title" down. But performance wise, there's still a HUGE gap. The Ralliart won't come near being able to pull 1.1g turns, and I don't think it uses the DCT trans that the Evo X MR uses.
But as far as drag, you'll easily get more power from mod to mod vs a G35.
If you want, I'd say go with a '08 WRX Hatch/Sedan, my friend's 08' WRX almost stock will run my friend's 350Z Nismo '08 easy.
'08 WRX will break 320whp, G35 can't, even with full bolt-ons. Unless it's built.
@JSlShow It makes sense, especially for the money you're paying...but I can only imagine how nice an Evo is compared to my experience with the Ralliart.
I think if I went Subaru, I'd have to go STI all the way...but if I found a regular WRX for a good price I'd probably go with it, even though I'm not a huge fan of the look of hatchbacks. Interesting that it runs with the Nismo though!
I have to research my mods in any case...I'm just learning about this stuff for about a year now.
Like I know I'd want to first get the muffler, exhaust, headers, intake and the tune...just have to research what parts are going to go good with each other and not wear out the car too much.
@AbstractChaos666 Forced Induction is going to be a whole new world for you. External waste gates, Internal waste gate, recirculative/atmospheric blow off valve, a lot of fuel, timing, air/fuel ratio involved, aka tuning. Also a lot of codes to deal with, if you don't know what you're doing. LOL! Bunches of trial and error. But if you can afford a STi go for it, just make sure it has less than 60k miles.
@JJJMMM15 You're right, the mods are.. Injen Cold Air Intake, Kinetix SSV Intake Manifold, OBX Throttle Body Spacer, Stillen Y-Pipe, and Tanabe Touring Medallion Exhaust; untuned.
I have a video with the Kinetix High Flow Cat and Megan Ceramic Headers, but it made the car sound like crap when it was cold. When it warmed up it was better.
Btw folks, I'm not hating on the G. But the point I'm trying to make is that, the G wasn't really intended to be a track car, it's 200lbs more than a Z. And being a "luxury sports", it's going to have heavier seats with ass warmers, have a back seat, and a softer suspension. The Z was intended to be a track car, by trying to shave weight with reducing sound dampeners(weight), struts, stiffer suspension, and have bucket seats.
@trento728 Not that I'm trying to be biased, although I've become sort of a "Evo fanboy". But those two cars are the only cars I've owned, so I can only compared to those two. I have friends who has a 350Z Nismo, S2000, etc.. but I haven't drive those cars long enough to know it like I do with mine, lol And I have the GSR which handles better than the MR. The MR using the DCT Transmission gives it that extra weight making it a bit less nimbler. Although they do have a better shock/spring set up.
@trento728 Believe me, I've pushed my G35. But I was never able to go 95mph on a 35mph exit ramp and feel safe like I did with my Evo.
The Evo with stock suspension and tires broke 1.1g, the G35 200ft skidpad was rate in the mid-upper .8g's. (.86'ish). And it could probably take it somewhere in the mid .9g's when it's pushed. But I don't think it could break the 1g margin unless it had some good amount of suspension work to it.
But even if it did 1g turns, I wouldn't go 95 on 35 ramp. 65-70 most
@s0meGuyMarlyMar Two things good about the '04 is that they have the Brembo callipers(or maybe it was the '03) and that they have a special color that no other year has. I think it was called "Twilight Blue"? It's a dark blue, where it looks almost black at night, but dark blue during day?
But honestly, the whole "Luxury Performance" thing doesn't work out for the G35. They sound nice and look nice, but it doesn't handle that well.
335i + G35's are common now, I'd try IS350. For luxury-perf.
@s0meGuyMarlyMar I drive a Evo X GSR now, I'm sooo much happier in that car. The whole "fake leather", butt warmer, navi, it's crap. Complete crap, I love my simple Recaro seats(2,000msrp), hugs you in for those 1+g turns, and the simplicity of everything. Just pure performance.
If you can find a good 6MT G35, I'm for it. But the Auto-"manual" never worked out for me either. Sometimes the gearbox would get confused and lag with the shift. And it's not even a "type of manual" doesn't use DCT.
@s0meGuyMarlyMar One thing I do love about the G was that, they have the capability to be a sick stance car. But their handling isn't so great, for performance, I'd go with a 350Z. Stance car, G35. And it's not a bad daily drive car, but my Evo was pretty comfortable too. I have people falling asleep all the time, and drove my car from Washington, DC to Ontario, Canada. No back pain or anything, my left leg might've gotten a little tired from my stg 3 clutch, but that's about it. Lol
@JSlShow 350z is a ridiculous car. Ridiculously hard suspension, unbearable road noise, no backseat and practically no trunk, it weighs just as heavy as G35 coupe and sedan at around 3300lbs. In comparison, G35 has soft suspension, not much road noise, backseat and big trunk for similar performance. You'd have to be a complete idiot to choose the z over g.
@LZKS I guess I'm a complete idiot then. 'Cause I could care less for sound dampening, considering I now have a o2 dump downpipe with a 38mm external waste gate and a straight 3" exhaust on my Evo.
The 350Z has a hard suspension, 'cause it's made for track, the G can barely hold it's own ground with it's rating of mid .8g's.
And it's almost as heavy as a G, but still a couple hundred pounds lighter. Which is a big difference, unless you think 200lb's isn't much.
@LZKS People chose G 'cause it's "luxurious AND sporty". Give me a break, the VQ is a good motor, but the suspension is horrible, it weighs a lot, and it's not that luxurious.
Personally, I love the feeling of my Recaro seats, $2,000 MSRP/per. Which hugs you in for 1g+ turns, unlike the fake leather that the G offers.
G35 to me was nothing more than a stance car. Gears were too long, powerbands didn't feel consistent, shifted slow(automatics), and couldn't handle turns as well.
@LZKS 370Z is a big improvement though, those are a well handling car. Being in the upper .9g's on the skidpad, probably breaking through the 1g margin.
People who buy cars with nothing more than a good engine, suspension, and bucket seats are people who cares about performance more than trying to impress little high school kids.
I bought the G35 to get into the stance game, never got into it. I'm still more of a gear head who likes to drag/track.
@LZKS And I think the way to build a good G35 is to have struts, get rid of those heavy ass seats and buy better/lighter seats, sways, coils, high comp pistons, mild cams, rods, and basic bolt-ons.
But half the people who owns a G is either middle aged(midlife crisis), or in highschool(spoiled). Probably thinking that their G is the fastest car on the block, until they get owned. :)
@JSlShow ALL cars these days could go on a diet. Light seats, battery is first. CF hood, door is second. Not too sure about high comp pistons, cams, and rods. Those cost you $. If you wanted more hp, it is fact that turbo makes the highest hp/$. And yes, I don't like the typical G owners. They don't even know what they have.
@LZKS Buckets seats, carbon fiber door, and carbon fiber hood all together is going to run about $7,000, that's no chump change either my friend. ;)
With that amount of money, definitely having a rebuilt bottom and head is affordable. But there's only a very few G owners who'd consider doing rebuilds than dumping money into "light aero parts"
I had a automatic, so I didn't consider putting too much money at the time. Thought I'd spend a few and save up for something else.
@bloodyangel5463 Btw, that was the time with bald tires, stock clutch, and untuned. And you favorited a G37 that's automatic? Don't really understand why you would say "automatigay" and favorite a automatic G37. But yeah, I have a "MANual" Evo X GSR doing 0-80mph with bald tires, stock clutch, untuned, doing it in 5 second range.
It's tuned now, currently making 365whp on a dynojet @ 21psi(stock boost is 19psi).
@StayOLDSchool "Had" a G35. Lol, sold it for the Evo X GSR, but I'm reaching 80mph quicker than the G35 would touch 60mph. Lol, spent about $3k on performance. New turbo set up will run me another $3-4k, then comes the built bottom block + head which will run me $12-15k, then a twin plate clutch w/ welded center differential pins, probably $4k. Costly to rebuild, but atleast it'll be safe. Going to have a 550-600whp daily driver. :) Currently a 365whp daily driver, lot more to go.
@JSlShow Damn, thats some real shit Lol. I have stock 2007 G35 coupe haha. I may upload some videos about it but there isnt really much to show off about it since its stock ... Why the GSR and not the MR ?
just curious what intake did the car have? sound really nice and aggressive, did it have spacer? 3.54 gears? its kind of strange how this car accelerates more than normal
@Dani01c No final drive mod, car had Injen CAI, OBX Throttle Body Spacer, Kinetix SSV Intake Manifold, UR Pulley, Stillen Y-Pipe, Tanabe Touring Exhaust. This was before I had my DC Ceramic Headers and Kinetix Hi-Flows.
@JSlShow wait.. so you had that manifold that everyone rants about that is very expensive and doesnt do anything? did it really gain anything from it? im still trying to decide if going with 5/16 spacer or kinetix v+..
@Dani01c Yes, the overpriced, flashy intake manifold. Lol, I feel like most of the mods didn't do much, until I put in my headers and hi-flows.
I'd stick with just the spacer, but I've heard people's MPG going down the drain after putting that on. But then again, most people cheap out on tunes without realizing how important they are for the car and powerband itself.
@JSlShow any reasons why? everyone has told me to go with spacer but mostly because non of them have tried the manifold meaning they say on their experience with the spacer only... anyways i really dont mind the mpg, usually tanks last me from 280-300 miles and from 2-3 weeks depending on how i drive.. i have a z-tube now and grounding kit is on the way.. my next mod should be spacer or manifold, exhaust and then tune.. sold the nismo headers, too much hastle and all it adds is about 12whp :/
@Dani01c Honestly, it didn't too much. I didn't dyno every single part I put in, so I couldn't tell ya. But I think people are right when they say it's better suited for FI. But it definitely kept the air cooler than the stock manifold. 'Cause I was able to put my hand on it during summer days after driving it for a while. Lol
@Dani01c I would say get the Kinetix V+ and the Kinetix Hi-flow package. Injen's CAI worked pretty well for me, I would kept the Nismo headers, and a single exit exhaust like the Apexi N1. The Tanabe Medallion sounded good, but.. once I had my exhaust less congested, the Tanabe couldn't keep up with the flow very well, had a lot of back pressure, sounded raspy during cold, got better as it warmed up.
If you have a 6MT, I'd say go with the final drive mod. 5AT, eh... rather not waste too much.
@JSlShow mine is 5AT with 3.3FD the 6spd one has the 3.54FD which ive read is the perfect one for 5AT, not to high but a bit higher than stock and gives it more of a punch.. im not really looking to have a race car so i dont care much, but i sure want to give it some more power XD.. but ill sure take your opinion in consideration! thanks!
@JSlShow but im thinking i should go with that injen intake, i have a ztube and substituted the stock filter with an aftermarket one but im really digging this sound!
@Dani01c Evo ran 0-80 in the same time the G hit 60. Mods were intake, intercooler + intercooler piping, dp(no o2 housing. I'm selling my dp for a o2 dump w/ 44mm ewg), test pipe, and turboback exhaust.
And that time was untuned with bald tires, I made 365whp on a dynomite at a shop (330whp dynojet), but my street tuner got it running smoother, lowered the boost by 2psi, and was able to pull 35whp more on the dynojet.
@Dani01c I have my Evo running near 30mpg through highway cruises, with near full bolt-ons, raised boost by 2psi(stock turbo), making 365whp on a dynojet. Lol, I used to get like 21mpg on highway.
Although with the G35 and it's 21gal tank, I wouldn't get very far to be honest, lol.
@eltingville81 Started near 2, ended in 6. Do the math, lol. Between 1-1.9 w/e you want to call it. And ending in the 6, even high 6's. That's still within the 5 seconds.
@liquidr0x0r Wish the G35 could achieve 4's n/a without the need of high comp pistons or rebuilt heads. Nah, it was in the low 5's but I think that's a good time for a G35. Still had stock cats + headers, I didn't get to do another 0-60 after my hi-flow + headers.
But I have a Evo X now, currently doing 0-60 in the 3's. And 0-80mph in 5-6's. :)
@trento728 Pretty much what it was, floored it. Torque Launching doesn't help for me, works for some people. It could be my set up at the time, although it was more intended to improve high end power. I'm not quiet sure what the set up was, since I drive an Evo now.
But the car was just behaving well today, usually shifts are even sluggish, but it shifted well as well. Lol
@oDTheTruth Nice CTS, checked out your video. Ever considered upgrading to the CTS-V? Those are a monster of a car, I currently have a 395WHP Evo X, pulls 0-60 in mid 3's, and 0-80 in flat 6's, haven't been able to go to the track/drag, planning to during the spring and after I get better tires. But CTS-Vs pulls so hard for stock, barely took one before I had the tune. I do a better job with the tune now, but.. I believe you can find some in mid 20's now.
@JSlShow Yeah, they are selling 04-07 CTS-Vs for 20s or lower now. 400hp. I've been considering it, but its taken a spot in the backburner to a few other things. If I do decide to get my hands on one, first thing I'll do is a magnacharger to get up to about 500. My friend has a 2010 Evo X with the 290 hp. He hasn't really started modding it. All he has is a full greddy exhaust.
@oDTheTruth Aslong as he has a test pipe + intake, those would be the power mods. But I think stocks are supposed to be in low 14's to high 13's if they do their 2-step + shifts well.
Not sure the limits you can push on a CTS-V, but I'd be more worried about the trans. Since it does use a vette engine, pretty sure it'll hold in a lot of power with no problems.
I would definitely try and push for the CTS-V if it's in your budget, love the V8 sound. Euro V8 or Domestic V8, love 'em both.
@JSlShow The trans is good on the CTS-V, the only thing that would be the weakpoint is the differential. I'm definitely going for the CTS-V, I just don't like financing cars. I'd rather buy up front in full, it becomes a business write off, but mostly, I don't have to pay a higher insurance because its financed (nor pay APR). I actually just put up a little video with my friend in his Evo. Lots of snow out here in NYC now.
@oDTheTruth I live in the DC area, hoped for more snow, but didn't even get half an inch. My family went to Atlantic City, NJ for a holiday trip, got like 8" over there. Lol
I love how the flame wars start on any and all car videos about the most stupid shit. We come to watch these videos for the purpose of whatever the poster has in the video. NOT to try and grow our e-penises. So just get along and enjoy the videos, please?
@blckblt121 2-3yrs ago, this car wasn't really owned by females. I kind of saw the trend going towards older male+females. Either way, this video was back 2yrs ago, and I own a Evo now. Takes mid 3 seconds to get to 0-60, and by the time my G hit 60, the Evo hits 80.
@salimi72 AWD launch is always better than a RWD launch. But this is the first time anyone saying that the Evo's an ugly car, lol! And G35's naturally a heavy car, if you wanted something a bit faster, I would've gotten just the 350Z or a 300ZX TT.
@JSlShow I have owned the 350Z & 300ZX TT, but the point I was making was simple and you didn't get it. EVO, is for teenagers and not a true sports car and UGLY. PERIOD
@salimi72 It's not a true sports car? How is the first Japanese AWD Production car, that's dominated the WRC, and is currently making .99g on the skippad stock, NOT a sports car?
Obviously you're just biased.. I'd like to hear your reasoning for thinking it's not a sports car. Btw, you see highschoolers drive 300ZX, 350Z, and G35s. I have yet to seen a highschooler drive an Evo.
@JSlShow A true sports car is a Nissan GTR, Z06/ZR1 Vette, Ford GT, Dodge Viper, Toyota SUPRA, 911 TURBO, ETC, ETC,,,,, Sorry, but your cheap ugly matchbox EVO, IS NOT IN THE SAME CLASS OF SPORTS CARS, that I'm talking about, so please drop it,,,,,, don't you get it, I'm in a different class, we are not talking only about 0 - 60 or 80, we are talking about looks, UGLY,,, I WROTE IN ENGLISH,,, lol,,,
@salimi72 "we are talking about looks" A TRUE sports car enthusiasts wouldn't just judge a car by looks, only ricers do that. Yeah, the only difference in class between you and me is that you judge cars by looks and not performance.
Supra's worth 20-30k, is it a cheap matchbox too? My Evo X GSR as-is costs $40k, with the MR Touring and basic options it goes past $50k, much more expensive than your G35. But you don't even have videos, so words mean nothing, especially coming from a ricer.

@JSlShow Let's try this one more time, Do you understand english?, because it seems to me like you don't. I think you cannot accept what someone writes, as their opinion. I don't care how much an EVO costs (10K or 150K), I still wouldn't want it, to me it's still an ugly 5 passenger sedan, not a sports car.
I said EVO'S are ugly (plain and simple), now what part of that don't you understand? It's a spoiled teenagers 5 passenger school/movie's/mall mobile, lol
@salimi72 I don't think you don't understand the difference between a Rally car, and a "spoiled teenagers 5 passenger" car. I'm guessing you think the CTS-V is a crappy car too, right? Since it's a 5 passenger sedan?
Is the G35X a crap car too? Or the IS300? M3 or M5? You don't consider these sports cars either? 'Cause they're a 5 passenger sedan?
@JSlShow Now you are understanding me finally, WOW, you finally got it. Now you understand that your car doesn't appeal to me (at all) and the sad thing is it bothers you, why? Just live with it, it's only my opinion, lol , so funny,,,,
@salimi72 What you said was beyond the fact that you don't like the looks of an Evo, but more of the fact that's "not" a true sports car. Due to it being a sedan that baffled me, considering Aston Martin, Porsche, and Maserati all made a SEDAN, along with the fact that the E92 M3 and M5's are sedan.
But either way, I have yet to seen a high schooler drive an Evo, so I don't really consider it as a "spoiled kid's car" but I've seen plenty of highschoolers drive a 350Z, G35, or a Mustang.
@salimi72 You don't really have any good reason to think that it's a crappy car, yet alone a car for spoiled kids. 'Cause most spoiled kids, don't know how to drive a manual car to begin with. They're too busy looking at automatic luxury sports coupes like the G35, IS250C, E92 3 series BMW.
And I don't think you understand english, I'm asking you on what basis are you coming up with this crap? What part of it is NOT a sports car? The fact that it has 4 doors? Like I said, M3 + M5, they're sedan
@JSlShow LOOK, I HATE THE LOOKS OF AN EVO, NOT BMW'S AND YOU CAN'T ACCEPT MY OPINION, WHY?!!! PLEASE DON'T WRITE BACK, YOU OBVIOUSLY CAN'T ACCEPT SOMEONE'S OPINION ON A CARS LOOKS, SO PLEASE,,,,, I'D RATHER SAVE TO OWN A ZR1, FORD GT OR GTR, THAT'S MY GOAL. LEAVE ME ALONE,,,,,
@salimi72 Btw, I would probably get a Ford GT if you're more interested in looks+performance. ZR1 would be great, if they decided to change the interior a bit to better seats atleast. But it's not that much different than a regular Corvette imo. GT-Rs high matinence, period; and it's a very big car. I'd rather try finding the R34.
@JSlShow I have seen & driven all 3 and I know all about them, but again we are talking about looks, not speed. Remember, that is what turns you on (speed), However, I must agree with you about the GTR, I love the looks, technology and speed of the new one's. I'd have to have black on black, with black rims and deep tint,,,
@salimi72 Btw, could you list the major mods for the 350Z, 280Z, and 300ZX TT? Since all of your cars you've owned apparently faster than my 12.8sec 1/4 Evo, which everyone knows it's a horrible car, lol.
@parmstrong32x Running 0-60 in 4 sec w/ bald tires on my Evo currently + 0-80 in 6 sec. Expecting low 3's when I get new tires on 'em. It's in my other videos.
@parmstrong32x Evo, AWD launch > RWD launch. Turbo > N/A. Personally, I enjoy 5SP more than 6SP. But, if you're into luxury over performance, then G35 would be your car. I just want a car that's more convenient, lighter, shorter gear ranges, and faster.
You see a lot more G35s now, atleast, I do in my area. And personally, Evo has more kudos/respect.
Spend 2k on a G35, you'll get like 20HP on bolt-ons.
Spend 2k on a Evo, you'll get over 60-80HP with bolt-ons.
@trento728 Wrong, Tiptronic is nothing close to a DCT. If it was a clutchless "manual" it still would've shifted faster.
Atleast real paddle shifters or w/e does use a clutch inside their transmission, where it does have to be replaced time to time.
I guess it would be hypocritical of me to say.. 'cause it is my video, but tip tronic's like a manual wannabe. But I guess I can say that because I have a different car that's manual.
@lucianflaitz On what basis? My G hit 60 in 2nd gear, but the size of the engine doesn't determine how fast it should be at what gear. That's based on the transmission itself, it's called a Final Drive.

@MarinoMan2726 It was using different wheels with no tpms on it. Also, for drag purposes, it is better to have lower tire pressure than to have the rate tire pressure. Better to have 5-10psi lower than what it's rated for, 'cause if not, chances of spinning the tires are higher.

These cars aren't made to compare with high-performance sedans like you guys are trying to compare them with. These compete with the BMW 3-Series, Mercedes-Benz C-Class, and Audi A4. Not a Subaru Impreza STI or a Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution. Sure they are fast but that is not specifically what they are made for.
NattDogg01 5 months ago
@NattDogg01 At one point or another I probably did compare my Evo to the G35, but only because viewers asked. And the last time I brought up the Evo was because some guy was saying that the G35 was too slow, and I brought up my Evo, and then he started saying speed didn't matter. I know that there's a lot of talk about Evo and STi, but it's because one of the viewers were asking why I picked the Evo over the STi.
JSlShow 5 months ago
@JSlShow I understand. It just kinda aggravates me that people try to compare cars that aren't even made to compete with. The G35 is WAY better than the EVO and STI. I don't care what people say they are simply a higher quality car and are a lot easier to live with on a daily basis. Like I said, they are made to compete in a class of mid-level luxury cars. The EVO and STI are both track day beasts and the G35 is made to be comfortable and easy to live with while still being able to go fast.
NattDogg01 5 months ago
@NattDogg01 Ehh... The Evo's a pretty comfortable car to be in. The Recaro seats supports your back pretty well, and the suspension isn't harsh. I've driven it from Washington, DC all the way up to Ontario, Canada. It was a one day trip, and I felt great. The Evo's also a sedan, so it's more convenient. Considering I had a G35 coupe.
But point being, you don't need luxury for it to be comfortable. But I won't go against you liking G35 over Evo/STi since it's a personal opinion.

diddy150 6 months ago
@diddy150 Good question, stock to stock comparison, the STi is a little faster than the Evo on a straight line. But the Evo X GSR blew the STi and the GT-R out of the waters when it came to handling. Of course, the GT-R was made for mid-long range courses. As to the Evo + STi were intended for short track + rally courses, since they have very close gears. But the Evo X broke 1.1g on stock tires and suspension, so it's one of the few cars that can do that in it's price range.
JSlShow 6 months ago
@diddy150 Second, although it is slower in the straight from stock to stock. The Evos in general has the better spooling capabilities thanks to it's MIVEC. It even allows bigger turbo applications like a GT35R to be spooled within the 3k range. Also, I have a ton of friends that owns WRXs and STis. So I guess you can say that I just wanted to be a little apart from my friends. But I love WRX and STis, I've never felt a reason to have that whole WRX+EVO rivalry.
JSlShow 6 months ago
@diddy150 But I think I like working on the Evo as a platform itself. I've worked on H(Boxer) motors, and they seem more of a headache to me. LOL, but I got a question. Do you still see the STi as the underdog of the Evo still? I think that's where most of the rivalry started, saying that the STi was the underdog. But to me, it seems like they've been, and still are just as good as Evos. But because people see the STi is the "underdog" of the two cars, more people like the STi it seems.

@335ipower11 BMWs are good cars but they don't come close to Japanese cars.

diddy150 6 months ago
@diddy150 I think Euro cars are well made. They won't crap out aslong as you keep up with maintenance. And I think the E92 BMW 328i will give the G35 a good run. It's just that I don't like the ego behind BMW owners. But I won't lie, G35 owners have a pretty big ego too, lol.
But I personally like Audi RS4 or S5 much better than the BMW M3, as far as new cars goes. I still love the E36 M3. Btw, the new M3 is going to be a 6cyl TT too.
JSlShow 6 months ago
@diddy150 And I wouldn't compare the GT-R with the M3, they have 414hp, and it's also 15k+ cheaper. And the BMW M5 is just a big luxury sedan with a lot of power, but I believe BMW doesn't even produce them anymore. Lol, but even Keiichi Suchiya has said that European cars are better than Japanese cars, I wouldn't say it's a 100% true. But in most cases, they are, sadly. The biggest thing holding Japanese cars back is the "Gentlemen's Rule" where car makers agreed to not exceed 280hp factory.

On mine I plan to just put a nice exhaust, and some nice wheels. Keep it classy B-)

@diddy150 As good as the Atessa system that the Nissan uses in the AWD system. I still think they need a lot of work done for a good amount of RWD cars, as far as track use goes. Personally, I'd use the G35 for more of a stance(Canibeat/itsproper) stuff.

You guys know tiptronic is better than manual right cause there is no clutch your foot Is always on the gas pedal so when your shifting gears you don't lose boost. They knew a normal manual will have a trouble catching with a auto so they added 18 more horses.

@diddy150 DCT/SST/PDK Transmissions shift faster than manual. Tiptronic that the G35 offers is sluggish.
As far as heel n' toe maneuvers to slow down for turns, I can downshift two gears at a time if I wanted to.
The tiptronic system doesn't allow you to 2-step either. I've beaten automatics with similar power, it does not shift that fast. Lol, it's just an excuse that automatic drivers likes to make, imo. 80% of them not knowing how to drive manual itself.

JSlShow 8 months ago
@AbstractChaos666 I'm starting to believe that the G35 is made more for stance than high performance. Unless you can dish out the money for high compression pistons and cams, it won't make much power through bolt-ons. I know, I've been there.
The video I have up of my Evo, is stock turbo, partial bolt-ons, untuned, with bald tires. Doing 0-80mph in the same time as the G doing 0-60mph.
And no, the Evo doesn't feel like a cheap, rough car. I love the Recaro seats, and handling/comfort is great.
JSlShow 8 months ago
@JSlShow Interesting...I've been thinking the same thing because I've heard a lot of bad things about the G35 performance wise :/ I drove a Lancer Ralliart (I think it's a grade shy of the Evo?) and it was a turboed 2.0 liter (paddles though...) and it was pretty quick and a very comfortable ride with the 4WD. The only problem is I haven't found any good deals so far on Evo's or Lancer's here in Miami FL >_<
AbstractChaos666 8 months ago
@AbstractChaos666 It maybe a "title" down. But performance wise, there's still a HUGE gap. The Ralliart won't come near being able to pull 1.1g turns, and I don't think it uses the DCT trans that the Evo X MR uses.
But as far as drag, you'll easily get more power from mod to mod vs a G35.
If you want, I'd say go with a '08 WRX Hatch/Sedan, my friend's 08' WRX almost stock will run my friend's 350Z Nismo '08 easy.
'08 WRX will break 320whp, G35 can't, even with full bolt-ons. Unless it's built.
JSlShow 8 months ago
@JSlShow It makes sense, especially for the money you're paying...but I can only imagine how nice an Evo is compared to my experience with the Ralliart.
I think if I went Subaru, I'd have to go STI all the way...but if I found a regular WRX for a good price I'd probably go with it, even though I'm not a huge fan of the look of hatchbacks. Interesting that it runs with the Nismo though!
I have to research my mods in any case...I'm just learning about this stuff for about a year now.

@JJJMMM15 You're right, the mods are.. Injen Cold Air Intake, Kinetix SSV Intake Manifold, OBX Throttle Body Spacer, Stillen Y-Pipe, and Tanabe Touring Medallion Exhaust; untuned.
I have a video with the Kinetix High Flow Cat and Megan Ceramic Headers, but it made the car sound like crap when it was cold. When it warmed up it was better.

Btw folks, I'm not hating on the G. But the point I'm trying to make is that, the G wasn't really intended to be a track car, it's 200lbs more than a Z. And being a "luxury sports", it's going to have heavier seats with ass warmers, have a back seat, and a softer suspension. The Z was intended to be a track car, by trying to shave weight with reducing sound dampeners(weight), struts, stiffer suspension, and have bucket seats.

@trento728 Not that I'm trying to be biased, although I've become sort of a "Evo fanboy". But those two cars are the only cars I've owned, so I can only compared to those two. I have friends who has a 350Z Nismo, S2000, etc.. but I haven't drive those cars long enough to know it like I do with mine, lol And I have the GSR which handles better than the MR. The MR using the DCT Transmission gives it that extra weight making it a bit less nimbler. Although they do have a better shock/spring set up.

@trento728 Believe me, I've pushed my G35. But I was never able to go 95mph on a 35mph exit ramp and feel safe like I did with my Evo.
The Evo with stock suspension and tires broke 1.1g, the G35 200ft skidpad was rate in the mid-upper .8g's. (.86'ish). And it could probably take it somewhere in the mid .9g's when it's pushed. But I don't think it could break the 1g margin unless it had some good amount of suspension work to it.
But even if it did 1g turns, I wouldn't go 95 on 35 ramp. 65-70 most

Nice ride. I'm looking at an 04 right now.. How's the reliability on this?
s0meGuyMarlyMar 9 months ago
@s0meGuyMarlyMar Two things good about the '04 is that they have the Brembo callipers(or maybe it was the '03) and that they have a special color that no other year has. I think it was called "Twilight Blue"? It's a dark blue, where it looks almost black at night, but dark blue during day?
But honestly, the whole "Luxury Performance" thing doesn't work out for the G35. They sound nice and look nice, but it doesn't handle that well.
335i + G35's are common now, I'd try IS350. For luxury-perf.
JSlShow 9 months ago
@s0meGuyMarlyMar I drive a Evo X GSR now, I'm sooo much happier in that car. The whole "fake leather", butt warmer, navi, it's crap. Complete crap, I love my simple Recaro seats(2,000msrp), hugs you in for those 1+g turns, and the simplicity of everything. Just pure performance.
If you can find a good 6MT G35, I'm for it. But the Auto-"manual" never worked out for me either. Sometimes the gearbox would get confused and lag with the shift. And it's not even a "type of manual" doesn't use DCT.
JSlShow 9 months ago
@s0meGuyMarlyMar One thing I do love about the G was that, they have the capability to be a sick stance car. But their handling isn't so great, for performance, I'd go with a 350Z. Stance car, G35. And it's not a bad daily drive car, but my Evo was pretty comfortable too. I have people falling asleep all the time, and drove my car from Washington, DC to Ontario, Canada. No back pain or anything, my left leg might've gotten a little tired from my stg 3 clutch, but that's about it. Lol
JSlShow 9 months ago
@JSlShow 350z is a ridiculous car. Ridiculously hard suspension, unbearable road noise, no backseat and practically no trunk, it weighs just as heavy as G35 coupe and sedan at around 3300lbs. In comparison, G35 has soft suspension, not much road noise, backseat and big trunk for similar performance. You'd have to be a complete idiot to choose the z over g.
LZKS 8 months ago
@LZKS I guess I'm a complete idiot then. 'Cause I could care less for sound dampening, considering I now have a o2 dump downpipe with a 38mm external waste gate and a straight 3" exhaust on my Evo.
The 350Z has a hard suspension, 'cause it's made for track, the G can barely hold it's own ground with it's rating of mid .8g's.
And it's almost as heavy as a G, but still a couple hundred pounds lighter. Which is a big difference, unless you think 200lb's isn't much.
JSlShow 8 months ago
@LZKS People chose G 'cause it's "luxurious AND sporty". Give me a break, the VQ is a good motor, but the suspension is horrible, it weighs a lot, and it's not that luxurious.
Personally, I love the feeling of my Recaro seats, $2,000 MSRP/per. Which hugs you in for 1g+ turns, unlike the fake leather that the G offers.
G35 to me was nothing more than a stance car. Gears were too long, powerbands didn't feel consistent, shifted slow(automatics), and couldn't handle turns as well.
JSlShow 8 months ago
@LZKS 370Z is a big improvement though, those are a well handling car. Being in the upper .9g's on the skidpad, probably breaking through the 1g margin.
People who buy cars with nothing more than a good engine, suspension, and bucket seats are people who cares about performance more than trying to impress little high school kids.
I bought the G35 to get into the stance game, never got into it. I'm still more of a gear head who likes to drag/track.
JSlShow 8 months ago
@LZKS And I think the way to build a good G35 is to have struts, get rid of those heavy ass seats and buy better/lighter seats, sways, coils, high comp pistons, mild cams, rods, and basic bolt-ons.
But half the people who owns a G is either middle aged(midlife crisis), or in highschool(spoiled). Probably thinking that their G is the fastest car on the block, until they get owned. :)
JSlShow 8 months ago
@JSlShow ALL cars these days could go on a diet. Light seats, battery is first. CF hood, door is second. Not too sure about high comp pistons, cams, and rods. Those cost you $. If you wanted more hp, it is fact that turbo makes the highest hp/$. And yes, I don't like the typical G owners. They don't even know what they have.
LZKS 8 months ago
@LZKS Buckets seats, carbon fiber door, and carbon fiber hood all together is going to run about $7,000, that's no chump change either my friend. ;)
With that amount of money, definitely having a rebuilt bottom and head is affordable. But there's only a very few G owners who'd consider doing rebuilds than dumping money into "light aero parts"
I had a automatic, so I didn't consider putting too much money at the time. Thought I'd spend a few and save up for something else.

@Dani01c No final drive mod, car had Injen CAI, OBX Throttle Body Spacer, Kinetix SSV Intake Manifold, UR Pulley, Stillen Y-Pipe, Tanabe Touring Exhaust. This was before I had my DC Ceramic Headers and Kinetix Hi-Flows.
Check out my other video of my Evo X GSR.
Thanks :)
JSlShow 9 months ago
@JSlShow wait.. so you had that manifold that everyone rants about that is very expensive and doesnt do anything? did it really gain anything from it? im still trying to decide if going with 5/16 spacer or kinetix v+..
Dani01c 9 months ago
@Dani01c Yes, the overpriced, flashy intake manifold. Lol, I feel like most of the mods didn't do much, until I put in my headers and hi-flows.
I'd stick with just the spacer, but I've heard people's MPG going down the drain after putting that on. But then again, most people cheap out on tunes without realizing how important they are for the car and powerband itself.
JSlShow 9 months ago
@JSlShow any reasons why? everyone has told me to go with spacer but mostly because non of them have tried the manifold meaning they say on their experience with the spacer only... anyways i really dont mind the mpg, usually tanks last me from 280-300 miles and from 2-3 weeks depending on how i drive.. i have a z-tube now and grounding kit is on the way.. my next mod should be spacer or manifold, exhaust and then tune.. sold the nismo headers, too much hastle and all it adds is about 12whp :/
Dani01c 9 months ago
@Dani01c Honestly, it didn't too much. I didn't dyno every single part I put in, so I couldn't tell ya. But I think people are right when they say it's better suited for FI. But it definitely kept the air cooler than the stock manifold. 'Cause I was able to put my hand on it during summer days after driving it for a while. Lol
JSlShow 9 months ago
@JSlShow so based on your experience would you recommend the spacer or the kinetix v+? i would go either ways, they cost almost the same :/
Dani01c 9 months ago
@Dani01c I would say get the Kinetix V+ and the Kinetix Hi-flow package. Injen's CAI worked pretty well for me, I would kept the Nismo headers, and a single exit exhaust like the Apexi N1. The Tanabe Medallion sounded good, but.. once I had my exhaust less congested, the Tanabe couldn't keep up with the flow very well, had a lot of back pressure, sounded raspy during cold, got better as it warmed up.
If you have a 6MT, I'd say go with the final drive mod. 5AT, eh... rather not waste too much.
JSlShow 9 months ago
@JSlShow mine is 5AT with 3.3FD the 6spd one has the 3.54FD which ive read is the perfect one for 5AT, not to high but a bit higher than stock and gives it more of a punch.. im not really looking to have a race car so i dont care much, but i sure want to give it some more power XD.. but ill sure take your opinion in consideration! thanks!

@Dani01c Evo ran 0-80 in the same time the G hit 60. Mods were intake, intercooler + intercooler piping, dp(no o2 housing. I'm selling my dp for a o2 dump w/ 44mm ewg), test pipe, and turboback exhaust.
And that time was untuned with bald tires, I made 365whp on a dynomite at a shop (330whp dynojet), but my street tuner got it running smoother, lowered the boost by 2psi, and was able to pull 35whp more on the dynojet.

@Dani01c I have my Evo running near 30mpg through highway cruises, with near full bolt-ons, raised boost by 2psi(stock turbo), making 365whp on a dynojet. Lol, I used to get like 21mpg on highway.

@oDTheTruth Nice CTS, checked out your video. Ever considered upgrading to the CTS-V?

But CTS-Vs pulls so hard for stock, barely took one before I had the tune. I do a better job with the tune now, but.. I believe you can find some in mid 20's now.
JSlShow 1 year ago
@JSlShow Yeah, they are selling 04-07 CTS-Vs for 20s or lower now. 400hp. I've been considering it, but its taken a spot in the backburner to a few other things. If I do decide to get my hands on one, first thing I'll do is a magnacharger to get up to about 500. My friend has a 2010 Evo X with the 290 hp. He hasn't really started modding it. All he has is a full greddy exhaust.
oDTheTruth 1 year ago
@oDTheTruth Aslong as he has a test pipe + intake, those would be the power mods. But I think stocks are supposed to be in low 14's to high 13's if they do their 2-step + shifts well.
Not sure the limits you can push on a CTS-V, but I'd be more worried about the trans. Since it does use a vette engine, pretty sure it'll hold in a lot of power with no problems.
I would definitely try and push for the CTS-V if it's in your budget, love the V8 sound. Euro V8 or Domestic V8, love 'em both.

@JSlShow The trans is good on the CTS-V, the only thing that would be the weakpoint is the differential. I'm definitely going for the CTS-V, I just don't like financing cars. I'd rather buy up front in full, it becomes a business write off, but mostly, I don't have to pay a higher insurance because its financed (nor pay APR).

You see a lot more G35s now, atleast, I do in my area. And personally, Evo has more kudos/respect.
