Have had my G37 for quite some time now, picked her up in october. One of the things i liked about the G37 was how the power just kept building all the way to redline....my modded 350Z although tourqey (is that a word) in the low and mid range was never a high rev puller...so it was something different, and i liked it. after a while i have not been getting that rush, did a few freeway pulls...and nothing. i know i'm getting up to speed but it doesn't seem to slam be back like it did with the test drive...

...so i after doing some errands with the wife i decided to take her for a good rabbit jump...and....nothing..... even though i saw my speedo race from 0-80 faster than my Z ever did... i looked over at my wife...saw her clutching the door handle , her teeth clenched, and with her eyes all terrified...

i guess i just got used to it...

 

Pretty much...

 

hmm. interesting, i slammed down on my throttle from 50-80 and felt nothing, but when i looked down i was going way too fast.
dunno if thats a good thing or not. i would rather prefer a sudden surge of speed rather than a smooth buildup

 

^^ It does seem pretty easy to speed in the G. Sometimes I'm up to 90 without realizing it, then I'm like "oh sh*t I better slow down"

 

I think the luxury factor has to do with not feeling the speed of the car.

 

After driving my best friends 350z 6MT i feel the same way...the 350z has a feel of slamming you into your seat with your head slammed in the headrest as well while the G has some what of a adrenaline slam but you really dont notice it but it catches the speed pretty damn fast

 

Power, not speed.

 

I definately get an adrenaline rush any time i take it over 5k.

 

It may be time for you to put a deposit down for the GTR!!

Jokes aside, I personally experience the most torque when down shifting from 3 to 2. I think that would be your best bet if you want to get your head slammed into the backrest.

 

Ya we get used to it. I can get away with speeding as well because you "feel" like your going slower and the wife yells at me less. lol

 

yea i think we just kinda got used to it... After not driving my car for a week it felt way fast again. Also might have been those mods i put on. LOL

 

SOmetimes I go from my G37 to my wife's Pathfinder. When I get back into my G37 it feels fast again.

 

Everything gets old after a while...even a beatiful, perfect, fast machine like the g37...ive learned that the enthusiast always wants more...

 

So true. This keeps the tuner companies in business as well.

 

heck yeah i agree! i wonder if the GT-R's speed would get old though! lol...
The refined power of the G37 seems to be enough to keep me happy for a while though...
