Z is about 1,162 times better in looks and performance.

I'm being very precise with my statement. Some cars are even more numerically farther in inadequacies to the god like Z such as the Audi S4.

No, but the 2003's had another front suspension issue addressed by a TSB that cuased the car to pull slightly to the right.

LOL.
The Z should handle slightly better than the G due to the less "comfy" suspension.

I heard G35 do have the feathering problem just not as bad because their suspension is not as stiff as ours.

They flip over very easily and explode due to the way the chassis is made with some sort of gun powder.

Hahaha, watch it man, you're gonna scare some noobs out of buying a Z.
Anyway, I don't think the Gs have the tire feathering problem. And Zs handle better, I remember they were faster through the slalom but I forget by how much.

I was refering to the G. What a crappy production car. I hate the way the exhaust sounds. Z is the bomb car untouchable to anyone's dis.

I'm not going to knock the G35 because infiniti makes some fine automobiles but my only beef is the terrible looking rearend of the car something there doesn't look as nice as the 350z's rear. If it wasn't for that the G35 would move from 1,162 to maybe a positive number against the Z. LOL

its nice how these go now...
back in 02-03 we had 1162 page threads re: Z vs G.
either way, I've not heard of *real* g35 tire feathering. The fact that both cars were developed by separate teams (drawing on similar resources) shows that one set of engineers clearly chose different parameters.
That said, the Z is faster and handles better.
