G35 and TL-S will be nose to nose

TL-P can keep up with G35 if they launch it right

If memory serves me correctly, didn't the 05 G35 sedan have a bump up in HP from 260 to 280? And the 05 coupe from 280 to close to 300? I could be wrong, but that's what I recall reading somewhere.

well anyone with a stock TLS or a modified TLP that thinks they can take an '05 g35 coupe or sedan must be dreaming...One of my dad's friends got the new coupe - shit I thought I was in a fast ass real sports car - Vette style

Our cars are quick and nice, but have no chance against one of those cars w/o some serrious FI, that being said, I still love my car - for what it is though

very true, so basically for us 2nd gen owners the 2004's are within reach, 2005s stay away from, anybody know any clear differences between a
2004 sedan/coupe vs. 2005 sedan/coupe - there gots to be some dead giveaways.


Can't wait to see the 3rd gen TL take on some horsepower upgrades to complete with the G35 Skyline, anyone happen to have pics or info on the G35 skyline?

well coupes stay away from 04 and 05, you can tell if a sedan is an 05 by the tailights, they have a similar led pattern as the coupe does, the "circles" while the 04 has the leds in lines

ya the '04's arent that bad...auto for auto but the '05's...dont waste your gas (or his either) you will see his taillights WAY too soon...you will wish you had the CLS 6 speed with the Comptech Supercharger and HBP, then you would give him a good run.

a cls 6spd with a ct sc would be more than enough to leave him, pretty easily too

ya they would leave a STOCK sedan and probably the coupe...but that is the only 2nd gen Acura that would. Even a TLS with the comptech S/C would be a very close race

Driving the 05 G35 will definitely put a smile on your face, alot like a blow job from a fat girl.
One word, NISSAN. What the M45 has, the 35 lacks. All the lux everybody's talking about in the 05 makes the G35 feel like a Maxima

i was talking about the 04 coupe, a cls 6spd would leave that with a supercharger, i think it would leave the 05 too, ct supercharger is 40-60 at the wheels, headers on forced induction is about 20-25 to the wheels, do the math

In response to the original question, 04 G35 sedan vs a TL-S...I am sorry to say that the TL-S will get walked on, stock for stock. The gearing that the G35 has will continue to pull in the third gear whereas our cars will start to lose acceleration in our third gear. I tried this out when I was stock and now that I am modified, I am still barely pulling away from these guys. Just my experience.

~ Jimmy

EDIT: That's francine dee on astroboys TL in your avatar!! Do I win anything?

its not all about math, power modification increases in HP are not really stackable gains. its a good race, not an ass kickin' thas all im tryin to say, ive been in those races

you guys are just talking drag racing though... how about some turns? me thinks RWD > FWD...

and to the person that was talking about NISSAN, how about HONDA? isn't the TL-S made in the US? all G35s are made in japan... not that i'm saying that US made cars suck but oh wait that is what i'm saying lol...

you can probably tell I own a G35 lol but a coupe not the sedan. My parents have the TL-S and its definitely a good sport sedan. I actually prefer it to the G35 Sedan. I think the G looks good as a coupe but as a sedan it doesn't do anything for me... the TL-S with the OEM bodykit though looks 10x better IMO... great all around car and i love the shift knob lol

ok flame away

Thumbs up G35

I agree, the TL looks a hell of a lot better than a G35 sedan. The coupe is the shit though!
