see my signature?

I have a G35x with a k&n filter...

I do also have good friends in town here with upgraded G35 coupes (one with a manual and one with an auto) and one with a stock G35 sedan manual.

One thing that is for sure- those motors can be modified for much more power than a C36 if you have the funding,

The other thing that is certain is that they are no where near as cool to me.
