Now, that's great for marketing and all-out driving (1/4 mile runs seem to be about .2 quicker). But I'm guessing, since I haven't owned a G before, that for everyday, not going over 4000 rpm driving, that there isn't much of a difference. So I was wondering if anyone else feels that Infiniti should have increased the tq instead of hp with the displacement increase? Just thinking out loud.

I truly agree with having torque in the lower rpms. Nevertheless, the G is the best bang for the buck in it's class.
I think adding DI on the 3.7 would also have a better flow of torque, what do you guys think? |
The G is a fast car already. It has tire chirping acceleration, and 7200 rpm red line to use; sure there are always faster cars out there, but the best way is to improve the nut behind the wheel.
DI is great, until you have to replace expensive fuel pump or components. |

My giant, lard-assed G8 GT was doing 4.9 0-60s with just a tune. IMO, the G could stand to have a little more tq down low, although
in most ways the vq37 was a step in the right direction. |

I got an awesome mod to get loads of torque.

Yeah but that's such a old man car, and when I say old I'm talking like 60's, if it had to be American I would took the new SS.

I'd sport a CTS-V over a G any day of the week. It isn't like that's a DeVille or anything, wtf.
I would ditch the chrome wheels though, but that's just me. PC those and they'd look sick. |

Really, do you think the car below is an old man's car? You know the average age of a G37 owner is like 50. It's all good though I'll blow by you in my old man's car.

They should offer the Ms v8 but beefed!

Just my opinion. |
ElLayG37s - your sure welcome to your opinion. Well, at least we agree that the G37 is sexy. I still love the Gs.
Also, for the money you would be hard pressed to find anything new and faster for the money. |
