Which Q50 to BUY 3.7 or 3.0t ??? | WARNING debate rant!!

[@SpeedCultureStudios]

You guys excited to see what Jaliscos Carbonfiber is sending over?!? Stick around-we will be surprised at the same time 😅🤣

[@migaisnotacat]

For me the 3.7 is fast enough for the street, sounds way better than the 3.0t and is basically perfect for a daily driver vehicle (that's what mine is). If I ever decide to go for something with a turbo it honestly probably won't be Infiniti.

[@bigola5437]

Do you still have your Q50? Ive been looking into the 3.7 for a daily and to mod a little bit. Im coming from a FBO 03 wrx ive been driving for 7 years now so I expect a massive difference between them.

Doesn't matter if it's a VR or a VQ. As long as you enjoy the platform, that's all that matters. People just love to hate. I own a 3.7 and I don't think it's slow. Fast enough for me to get from Point A to Point B. VQ = reliability ||| VR = gapplebess

The 3.7 engine is very impressive. I could turn these sedans and coupes into solid 12 second cars while NA, and possibly 11 seconds for the 370z. You just need the right mods and this engine is a beast mid range and keeps making power all the way to the end.

[@Dreamevil2009]

One thing a lot of people don't mention when comparing the 3.7 vs 3.0T, while it still doesn't offer a dual clutch, from what I have read the transmission was drastically beefed up. I think this is a pretty important factor a lot people say "well you can just super charge the 3.7 and you'll be competitive with a modified 3.0T". However, from what I gather the 3.7 platforms transmission cant handle much more then 350 ftlb torque which creates a expensive bill when it goes. The 3.0T it sounds like the transmission can handle power well into at least the 400's. I would say I do have some buyers remorse, I was in the same position as you when I bought this car. The 3.0T was only in production for one year and I had just left owning a built STI that I was constantly dumping money into, I wanted something more reliable. In retrospect I think I should've purchased the 3.0T based on what I was looking for in the car. You hit the nail on the head saying it depends on what you want it for. If you just want a reliable daily driver I would say go with the 3.7 not because it is necessarily more reliable but its for all intensive purposes the same car, to someone who isn't modifying it and just daily driving, but you can save your self a good 10k. For someone looking to modify the car, as much as I like my 3.7, I think it is truly a no brainer the 3.0T just has more potential relative to cost - horse power ratio. A simple tune and bolt ons put you well into the 400's on the 3.0T platform. That would cost you the price tag of a super charger and supporting mods on a 3.7. While having the peace of mind that some of the more beefed up components on the 3.0t, transmission ect, will hold the power.

[@SpeedCultureStudios]

Totally agree. And yes, the trans, although still a 7spd auto, it was beefed up for the 3.0t. The newer trans can definitely hold more torque than the vq37 trans giving it a substantial advantage. However, there have been cases of the stock VQ trans holding strong in boosted situations and being beat on for months on end. With that being said, the advantage still goes to the newer version. A swap is possible though, but now you’re talking about $10k for a boosted vq plus the cost of a vr tans and swap. May as well have gotten the 3.0t in the first place at that point.

[@Dreamevil2009]

@@SpeedCultureStudios Agree with you there, I guess the only way I could say you can justify going balls to the walls on the 3.7 platform is if you already own it the price difference to pick up the 3.0T may be around the same as super charging the 3.7 if you can find used parts. That or if you just are a die hard VQ37 fan for whatever reason and it is some how worth it to you haha. Question for you on those brake calipers you got. I see on Concept Z performance offers a big brake kit package but its substantially more expensive...any down falls with the cheaper option you picked up? I am always weary on things that are a lot cheaper for the life long saying "to good to be true" haha.

[@SpeedCultureStudios]

@@Dreamevil2009 The calipers I got are remanufactured and in a raw state with no pads included. Are the calipers new at CZ? I suspect so. And likely include pads too, no? Most of those packages are expensive because they are either brand new or powder coated and include pads. I wouldn’t say it’s too good to be true-because it takes some effort to get them looking good and you still have to buy pads, banjo bolts etc. BUT I’ll be testing them out-hopefully sooner than later-and let you know if it’s a good idea or not! That’s part of the purpose of this channel! I want to let everyone know if there are good deals out there that make sense, or if things are indeed too good to be true!

[@Dreamevil2009]

@@SpeedCultureStudios yeah so they have multiple options they have a remanufactured option, which is powder coated, that runs I believe 1200. This would include certain rotors, pads at no additional cost depending which route you go it does add to the cost of the package. They also offer brand new calipers which then raises the price to 1600 I think again including rotors and pads to no extra cost unless you go higher options.

[@SpeedCultureStudios]

@@Dreamevil2009 remanufactured for $1200 is a bit high I would say because I believe the are the same powerstop remans from amazon that you can get-powder coated red-for under $700 for the set and I believe they come with pads. I’ll have to look a bit closer at CZ

[@69sound81]

Well, that is a very nice insight into it. I'm looking to purchase a Q50 either the 3.0t or the 3.7. In my case, I have a wife and 2 chindren (4 and 7 years old each) and that's why I'm not looiing into the coupes, sportscars, muscle cars or other big compromise vehicle. And in this case, the car will remain stock for a while (at least 2 or 3 years), so it comes down to price against reliability. So, for the 3.0t that could fin into my budget, it would most likely give me some issues and that is not what I want. On th3 other hand, the 3.7 is more likely to have more miles and more abuse, so I can also expect som3 issues that come with wear and tear of the vehicle. I guess I'm gonna go for a 2015 3.7 with all the mechanical tests before buying and with time I will get into suspension, bib brake kits, tunes, customization... who knows, mayb3 nothing or maybe I end up with a 3.7 twin turbo. But yeah, don't get so pissed by the 3.0 vs 3.7 debate. We all wanna have the better car and we all wanna know what is the better purchase.

Then trading it for an 07 350z HR then came along the 09 g37x sedan, to a 2008 g37s coupe then I totaled it then having to buy another 08 g37s coupe but with full bolt ons with up rev tune then selling it to get another 2010 g37x sedan that I kept stock sold it and bought a used 2014 Q50 3.7 from a private seller that I currently daily. I financed a brand new 2017 Q60 red sport which cost me 😅 ill just keep that to myself all I can say on the financial end of it was the biggest worst financial decision of my life. As for me I love the reliability of the Q50 3.7 so far and it sounds so much better than the Q60 as far as exhaust goes. My q60 RS is stock but I’ve heard cat back set ups that doesn’t have that VQ tone or even that VR tone from the GTR. It seems you have to really go down the middle of the exhaust and start changing things to get distinguish GT-R tone or VQ tone. Overall the Q60 looks better, faster but reliability sucks. I’ve had the turbos replaced twice by the warranty, I’ve suffered so much heatsoaking and I upgraded the heat exchanger. Also the drive belt was giving me issues and was also replaced by warranty. Never had to really do anything major or experienced anything major with the Q50 3.7 I just do regular maintenance, changed the serpentine belt and that’s basically it. The VR30 is still a new engine and still not perfect as the VQ engine which is basically bulletproof. Has a long standing of reliability in the HR and VHR range minus the whole DE issues of oil burning and early models of VHR with gallery gaskets failing which is a hit or miss. I love both cars but Infiniti is failing, their sales are declining now their market is only USA and China.

I just picked a 15 Q50S in march of 2020 with 9800 miles. I'm going 3.7.

I bought a 2015 skyline 350gt hybrid. (I believed same as a q50 s). Unfortunately im having so many problems 😪

[@SpeedCultureStudios]

That’s too bad! What problems are you having?

[@laneowen9359]

stay on the positive side. forget the rant. I am a Q50S owner and use it for a commute to Greenville from Anderson. I like what you have done to your car and enjoy your content.

[@baggycamera4825]

I just purchased a 2016 3.0t white premium package 60,000 miles 👀 Ummm I'm keeping my mods stock I'm not fucking with it but I will be keeping up with oil changes and ect.

i’m good with my 2.0t 😂 i live in los angeles and gas uff over 4 dollars

[@Rutto00]

What do you think about the hybrid q50? Is it just as reliable?

[@jamesalmeida4979]

I'll go with the 3.7 for the win 🏆 😉

[@LayzeLyfe]

I was gonna say you forgot to mention the 400 pound Gorilla in the room. Did I say pound? I meant horsepower. Reliable, fast, and fun straight out the factory.

Just wondering, why do you pick a 2015 q50 over a 2014 q50?

[@SpeedCultureStudios]

I generally stay away from 1st year if a model. But was really looking for newer and lowest miles st the time

[@Ccommandment]

@@SpeedCultureStudios Okay thanks. So would you say that you should stay away from the 2014? Also how many miles does your q50 have on it and how well does it run?

[@Jacob-ht3wj]

What model Do you consider though, the sport, Red Sport, or... I just am not sure man I’m torn

[@SpeedCultureStudios]

You can find a non-sport for way cheaper and make it just as fast as a red sport and add all of the sport parts for less than the difference between the two...if you can do the work yourself.

[@antonio214v]

[@tylerroberts9105]

Quick question. Does Jalisco's only do certain Infiniti glow emblems (Q50, Q60, G35), or can he do custom ones? My girlfriend recently bought a QX60 and I was wanting to possibly buy one for her if he can make them. I don't have Instagram yet to ask him, so I just wanted to check to see if you knew.

[@SpeedCultureStudios]

I’m not sure about emblems yet-he’s only recently started selling them, but he definitely does items for other brands!

[@Nateabolic]

I'm hopefully buying a Q within the week, then I see this video but i'm still stuck on which way to go :/ Worried about getting a VR and running into issues and such

[@luisiferz]

I was on the same boat as you. I went to my local Infiniti dealer looking to buy a 3.7 Q50, and ended up leaving the dealer with a VR30 Q50 and I don’t regret it one bit. I was also iffy about the issues I’ve been hearing about the VR30’s, but I still have yet to come across one. I’ve had my Q50 since June of 2020 and it’s been my daily driver ever since (I do race here & there) and it’s still holding up strong, no issues whatsoever. those issues only happen once you heavily modify these, but then again, what car doesn’t experience issues once you start to modify them? every turbo’d car is obviously gonna have issues compared to the NA version of it. and believe it or not, the VR30’s are one of the most reliable turbo’d engines out right now

[@Nateabolic]

@@luisiferz What year is your Q, and how many miles? I've always been a VQ guy and know most of the ins and outs when it comes to the HR/VHR, so I guess getting into a new platform is just a little frightening.

[@SpeedCultureStudios]

If you don’t go crazy with mods and beat the hell out of it, I’m sure the 3.0t will be quite reliable for you too. Get service records and carfax if possible and check all fluids before purchasing. Pre purchase inspection if possible too. If all seems good, just keep up with maintenance and I’m sure you’ll be fine!

[@luisiferz]

@@Nateabolic it’s a 2016 Premium trim. I got it when it had 39,000 miles and it currently has 45,580 miles. only mods I got are lower downpipes & heat exchanger. the only thing I had to do was change the serpentine belt and that’s it. it’s been running strong ever since

[@ls6king316]

I like the 3.7 don't get me wrong I have a 2014 Q50 with 177,000 mi and the car never saw the back of a tow truck. The problem is these twin turbo kits and supercharger kits are way too expensive especially when you can just swap a VR30 motor in its place and get it dyno tuned and make close to 500 horsepower EVERYTHING FOLDS RIGHT IN AND JUST PLUGS RIGHT UP there's even people swapping Nissan 370Zs without a single problem and that's a Nissan 370Z

[@abdielito2012]

hey, i have a quick question please answer :) im currently looking into buying a q50 myself already found one and going to pick it up tmm the car comes with a muffler delete already but for some reason it pops not loud pops but small minor ones i have a g37x rn and when i took of the muffler it didnt pop not until i changed the exhaust tips and it started to pop just a little but still the q50 has stock tips and pops more im sure everything else is stock too the problem is i look up muffler delete on yt for the car and none of the videos show the q50 popping a little like the one im going to purchase any idea why ??

[@SpeedCultureStudios]

It really shouldn’t pop a lot. I got some very minor pops after the muffler delete on occasion, but I don’t know why it would do that now unless it had been tuned

[@abdielito2012]

@@SpeedCultureStudios ok thanks for the feed back, do u think a 0-60 test would help figure out if it was tuned ?

@@abdielito2012 no not really. It’s such a short distance that you don’t see all that much variation until you get used to launching the car and running consistent times
