So yesterday my friend and I were driving around in my 03 TL-S and he was ahead of me in his 08 G35X that's pretty quick. I was giving it half to 3/4 throttle in sport mode and was able to keep up with him which surprised me. Wow these cars last good. Crazy part is that the previous owner of my S was a mid 30s Philippino lady that drove it to Wisconsin and back. I guess the car has more to it once a 6mt is in

Does your friend's G35 have a stick ?
If so, save up for putting in a 6 speed and blow his door's off !!!

Nope it was an automatic actually. I just wish the TL would keep picking up after 3rd gear 1st through 3rd is pretty quick with picking up and love hearing the tires chirp in 2nd gear lol. Mine is basically stock at this moment besides resonator and mid muffler delete

oh we can make it MUCH faster and way better handling
limited of course only by the size of your wallet
there are some fast, track proven cars on here, superchargers, turbos, or the simpler heat spacers for the intake manifold and cleaning the Throotle Body system
Seafoam is always your friend!

Headers + CAI and you will be faster than him, Granted he is AUTO.. Our 4 gear ratio is ridiculously tall...
So if you haven't own him by the end of 3rd gear don't expect any miracles.

6mt FTW in that scenario.
