I know this is an old video but this is by far one of the fairest reviews on the platform. I've taken my 2014 Q50S to the track a number of times and the observation that it enjoys rotating is also what surprised me the first time I took it out. These cars love a little bit of trail braking and the chassis seems to be pretty agile, even more so with some suspension mods. My Q is 6MT converted so it's helped tremendously to make it more predictable/controllable - as you said these cars have a lot of mass but they are great fun to drive and I think possibly one of the best cars to come out of Japan in the last decade.

Nah, not a baby GTR. Takumi makes the 3.8 VR by hand... it's worth searching around youtube to find videos about it. Just 5 dudes. They each build their engine from beginning to end and stamp their name on it. It's a work of art. These 3.0 VRs are made on an assembly line. Tochigi has an excellent rep (all Nissan's high end cars are built there), but it's just not the same level of quality.

Yep you can have an LSD in the AWD model as well from what I understand, the RWD really isn't all that bad it's just the stock tires make traction a big deal. But yeah the RWD model needs the LSD the most, it was always strange they dropped it when they ended up adding about 30% more power over the outgoing model. lol

@@mattteee2973 I found nothing wrong with it. It's the perfect alternative to an M3 because it's fast but not unnecessarily expensive for things most people will never use on the street. You can take it to a shorter lapping day but most people will commute in them and occasionally bomb an on ramp. The M3 is a vastly superior sports sedan, but your average accountant doesn't need carbon ceramic brakes to sit in traffic.

The car I currently own only has had two recalls, both were for front air bags lol. I guess they refined the living shit out of my car before I bought it, as I bought the last model year. Once in a blue moon my car's door or dash rattles but I haven't heard it do that in many months now.

Ryan Audo if I buy a luxury car, I want luxury so I would expect a quiet ride. I think it is good to hear that this car is quiet and has some power. Pretty cool imho. If you need more sound in a Japanese luxury car of course there's probably exhaust systems to fubar the way it is suppose to sound.

Current G35 Owner Here, don't mean to interrupt, but a year or two ago, I saw a Q-Series Sedan with, what looked to be a VK56-derived power plant in it, with a shorter head obviously. I haven't had my ear to the ground like I used to, but I figured that would make 5.6 liter Nissan swaps easier than the Forsberg-Cut-a-hole-in-your-hood-method. You guys have any thoughts on that?
@lb9gta307
@lb9gta307 6 жыл бұрын
IIRC Forsberg uses an ITB intake on his which is part of why he cuts a hole in his good. But the VK also comes in a 4.5L and 5.0L. I'd imagine those are shorter deck blocks than the 5.6L.

I've heard. I don't think so, and apparently am the only one. Basically every review repeats the exact same thing about it. Like they all watched one shit review and took it for gospel and it just spews out of their bias face with no actual thought that they might like it themselves. That's all. If i heard a different argument than the one I've heard a thousand times I'd think people were actually basing their hatred for it based on their own opinion. Not something they've heard in every other review.
