Default Awd G35???

So I was watching the news last night, and I saw an Infiniti commercial that said the new G35 is going to come with "Intelligent AWD". I thought, "Wow, slap a Greddy TT Kit in that thing and it will be awesome!!!"

Anyone considering getting one of these? It'll be interesting to hear how the AWD performs under power.

its been out for about a year now. G35x is whats its called.

I think it would be pretty awesome if you were to put some FI.

Im pretty sure FI would end up breaking things... its not like they are giving us ATTESA-II awd or anything.

Screw that, I'm still pissed that the new g35 is going to have higher HP numbers than the Z.

It is the ATTESA E-TS...

The ATTESA E-TS system is uncompromising AWD in that it incorporates the G35's rear-wheel drive handling characteristics while enhancing its all-weather performance and stability.

This system constantly monitors the driving conditions and dynamically apportions the amount of torque to the wheels that need it.

I have both the Z and a G35X. The G35X is awesome, great power, great handling and comfortable. The Z is more fun to drive and has more raw power. Can't wait to see how the Attesa handles the snows of Vermont!

What I read about the G35x is it`s a RWD mostly all the time and when the computer think it`s necessary, because your rear wheel slide or something like that, the front wheel will turn, so it`s not a 100% AWD all the time. Also, it`s note like audi ou subaru with 50/50 or 60/40 it`s only 30% in the front.

Also, how you can see, it`s only on the sedan automatic, so probably for old person who just want be more secure during the snow (if you live where I live) or rainy day.

We are far from the awd on the skyline here.

umm that is how the awd on the skyline works.

its called the attesa system, it only becomes awd when it senses the car losing traction. for the rest of the time it is basically a rwd car.

I have it on my FX45. It is all rear wheel drive under normal conditions and will transfer up to 50% of the torque to the front when necessary. I drove it a bit in the snow last winter with the OEM tires and it was O'K. It would be great with winter tires, but they are hard to come by in 20".

Yes, the G35 works the same way. It can be anywhere from 100% rear to 50/50.
