Yesterday I was on the freeway minding my own business when a G37 comes up next to me and starts to instigate. I knew I would dust him pretty easily so I just didn't bother but the guy just wouldn't give up. Anyways I punched it and took ahead fairly quick but I didn't "WALK" him. I couldn't believe it but we reached around 130mph and he was probably 2-3 cars back. I was taking him but I was extremely surprised he hung with me that far. What gives? It was the pre-g37 not the Q40, Q50 ones. My assumption is that we probably have almost 1000 lb difference. He being 3500 lbs and me around 4300-4500. I doubt g37s are modded. Pretty surprising to say the least. 20 minutes down the line a black charger try to take me but he failed. Also I wouldn't really push it this much unless the roads are pretty open.

I bet he was modded. He probably thought he would win that's why he was pushing you to run.

What are common g37 mods and what is the hp/tq gains?

Ls1toAMG

Well he needs around 100hp to hang with u. Probably supercharger

Vanquish59

I mean....I doubt he had a blower.

stockC43

More commonly modded then any Amg. They have bolt on superchargers, turbo kits and the list goes on.
A local shop to me built this 350z, essentially just a shorter version of the G35/37

1248whp

Vanquish59

Wow

Ls1toAMG

Yep. Considering they are high 13 second cars he was modded. Not just a few boltons.

Vanquish59

If E63 reaches around 130mph he should have a stock g37 by buslengths im assuming right?

+1... exactly what i was thinking.

I had a similiar experience with a G37 IPL a few years ago, but I started behind and could not pass him. I was stock and I think my I/C pump was failing, so that kinda sucked.

there isn't anything more annoying than those damn G37, infinity guys LOL

My wife drives a G37 and while it's a great car and quick it's not in the same league as a properly maintained E55 for straight line acceleration. I haven't modded it as the bolt ons (tune, intake, exhaust, even headers) add very small amounts of power. The best option is the stillen supercharger or a TT kit.

Check your intercooler pump, lol

BlownV8

Lol, his car doesn’t have an intercooler pump.

For me, it's BMW 323 and Toyota Prius hands down. Those drivers think they own the road. Modded Civics are a distant 3rd...

s.i.f.i.

Yah I dunno, they are annoying, as are just about every Prius driver, sanctimonious prigs, but then there's the bimmer boyz. I had one of the roadsters rev on me and cut traffic off to catch up to me and in general behave like, well, a bimmer boy, who thought he had a fast car. I figured I did him a favor by dispelling his illusions.

hyperion667

I am not a prius fan either.........not for 100 mpg.......not for 200......
never had any issues with the BMW crowd......actually have met some nice owners haha.......I saw a 435 with a M badge yesterday lol

HeissRod

I was behind an Audi S7 yesterday, who tried to show off by flooring it in medium traffic and nearly got into a wreck.

SilverStrk

Yeah I had a kid in a modded M3 try me on the freeway. Needless to say he Got Spanked, 65-135 pulled by at least 10.. And for those Prius F**ks, best sticker I saw was on a highly modded GTR at my shop that said F**k you and your Prius.. Summed up well I thought.

HykakanAMG

Stock for stock from like 60-130, how many cars should the e63 have on the g37.

hyperion667

I had a sticker EXACTLY like the one you described on the GTR
I had it about 7 years ago on a Volvo, and thought it was original.......guess nothing is original anymore.......I had it specially made too LOL

HeissRod

What kind of Volvo?

hyperion667

it was an S40.........also had a 'support bacon' magnet

HeissRod

Dang. I was hoping to hear 850R or S60R.
