Old but new memeber
So I am planning on making a change and coming over to the world of Infiniti.
I am the proud owner of a 2005 Legacy GT she has treated me well over the years but with all things its a time for change.
Just for whoring sakes here she is:
A quick run down on whats done STI swap Spec-b interior exhaust and suspension and countless JDM bits and pieces.
So on to the real deal I found 2 G's I am interested in a coupe in with 35,xxx miles for 28K white on black sport navi looks like it was lowered at a time by the sale add and possible ding on the fender.
2nd is a 08 G35 XS white on grey navi 16,xxx miles on it for 30K I am brand new to Nissan / Infiniti brand and really ready to make the move would the G37 experts say these are good deals? Or should I keep looking and just shoot for a G37 sedan I would think they would drop in cost now that the 2010 are starting to pop up every where. Thanks and glad to be here.

STI swap = intercooler, intake and ecu tune? I had an '07 Spec B with FMIC, FP snail, headers, catback, TG deletes & Cobb. Was a beast, but blew a piston on the dyno, sold and got the G. Don't get a G if you want to mod as much as the Subie - not a lot you can do unless you want to spend some real $s and go aftermarket FI. Welcome to the forum!

Pretty much same setup, I am running VF43 and sti longblock TGV deletes trans cooler FMIC and open source tune. I am done modding to the extent of the Legacy if I do I will just buy a spare long block or build one and have it on the side if the power bug bites me again. I want something clean smooth and reliable this go around and the G is exactly what I am looking for. Oh and I know the ringland horror oh too well reason I went with the long block.

Wow man, that leggy is clean as hell. There is a 05 leggy in Toronto for sale for $23,000 (Canadian $$), it has the STI swap like you and a few similar mods... it looks pretty sick.
I actually own an 09 STI (I'm only on this forum because my mom has an 09 G37x coupe) and it confused the hell out of me when I read your first 2 sentences... I had this tab open at the same time as the Toronto Subaru Club forum and I was like WTF and then realized what happened lol. BTW the S402 (S402 style?) grille in the bottom pick looks sweet (so does the painted stocker though).
Personally I'd keep the leggy (one of my all time favorite sport sedans)... but hey I'm a little biased. You will have fun in the G though.

Good eye on the grill both are JDM painted is Rev-D stocker thinner then the US/CADM stock grill for the 08's and up, I know I will miss the legacy but I need something a bit more refined and less mod hungry I guess it comes with age.

The G is definitely more refined, you will certainly enjoy that aspect of it. And it should still put a smile on your face when you step on it.
BTW are you gonna sell the car or do a part-out on nasioc or ebay or wherever?
#11
I am selling Its just too cold to try to part out and I dont have the time to break her down and take her back to stock. I have a for sale thread on Nasioc and Legacygt dot com
#12
True... good luck with sale man, if I didn't already own an STI I'd be seriously looking at your car haha. I actually test drove a Spec B before buying the STI. Thought it was pretty nice, obviously the power was lacking vs the STI, but I figured I don't really need the extra room, plus I love the look of the GR STIs.
