Default Mods and the G35

Sup guys this is my first post on here. Anyway, I was wondering if all of the performance mods coming out for the 350 will also work with the G35. Also anyone heard rumors of what mods Nismo will have for these cars?

Most of you know that the Camaro and Firebird are referred to as the F-body. To make things simpler, is there a name given for the 350/G35?

Well, the G35 sport coupe, sedan and 350Z all share the same platform which is called the FM (front engine-midship). So I guess you can call them all FM cars. I'm pretty sure the next GT-R will use the same platform.

as Im aware only domestics are given *-body names. for our cars they are Z33, the 300ZX was the Z32. some parts could be reffered to as JDM as well from japanese domestic market.

as for mods fitting G35. I am unaware of the differences between them, part might be easily modified to fit, but they are not identical. the car is longer and most stuff is different, even tho they share the same platform, there are differences. the aftermarket companies will probably make stuff for the Z and then try and modify it to have it work on the G35 as well if it doesnt require too much work.

Nearly all suspension bits and engine parts should be hot swapable. The exhaust wouldn't work, nor the CF driveshaft. That's all I can think of right now that would be a pisser to work with. =)

Hot swappable suspension parts? Wow, I'd love to see you changing out the upper wishbone while doing 140MPH.
