From some of the people on the forums, I think it's reasonable to expect 450-500 whp.

That's real good I forgot to mention this will be driven on the track and what type of suspension intake exhaust headers and brakes would you recommend

If this is going to be driven on a track, I would start off by driver mods, it's easy to drive fast in a straight, much harder around corners. Have you taken any classes with instructors?

The G37 will require a bit of work to get her run nicely on a track, it's a tad heavy due to all it's luxuries, so your stock brakes will give up on you pretty quick. Why did you not consider a better platform for the track?

$20K?? ohhh dizzam! what you do? rob a bank treyrob?? j/k man.

for that money, you can go for both SHOW and GO.

There's a GTM Turbo available, Stillen Supercharger.

Coilovers, some nice set of quality wheels, and exterior mods like a lip kit, etc...

You can pretty much do a LOT of the available mods for the G37 with that kind of money.

Should be a fun build man man. good luck!

but for a new G37+ $20K?, I would've gotten a used decent GTR.

$20,000 is not even close to covering a TT set-up, suspension, and brakes...

You need to decide: You want a track car that can run for an hour or so without brakes fading and car overheating

OR

You want a car to have fun with on the streets, drag strips and shows?
