I think a VW R32 has it beat at $32k. As well as a Vette with the HPE option. But other than those two cars, yes, I would also agree that it is a great sounding car.

Wow, that's quite an assumption, Jon. I occasionally have a rough idle at start in the morning, and I have never revved the engine. Don't place so much importance on yourself to believe that strangers on a car forum would be scared to tell you the truth. There's logical fallacy in assuming you don't have the problem and don't rev your engine, so everyone that does have the problem must rev their engines.

Actually, to be clear, it's becoming abundantly obvious that it might not even be a problem, so stop manufacturing one.

Should I put red or blue neon on the bottom of my lambo door?

I don't mean to be snarky but it's gonna happen right now... Is there a part in here where we can kindly ask you to go play in traffic blindfolded? (P.S. please leave the car in your will to someone who actually knows what to do with it) Also, I don't like the stock tires cuz they're too soft, do you guys think its cool if i just take them off and roll right on the rim?? Just a thought....

Is this a problem I only face , or its a standard problem :

1) RPM does not go above 5 , while stationary .. or not moving .
2) Stock Exhaust sounds like **** ! compared to a 06 350z for instance
3) Any way of uploading Custom POI to the Navigation system ( aka trapster )

** btw my g37s is a GCC spec not USA spec **

Other questions

1)Shall I even think off lambo doors or not ? ( i live in country where everyone shows off their cars ( more visually than performance wise )

2) If RPM locking is intentional , how can i over-ride it

3) How to remove ABS locks/fuse , so i can do Burn outs in one place

Sorry if i sound like a noob .

Thanks ,
Looking forward for some answers .
I always thought there was no such thing as stupid questions. Only stupid answers...
TILL NOW!! ........ JEEZ YOU GOTTA BE KIDDIN US RIGHT? You waited this long to come up with these ridiculous questions????

1. Are you that dumb to even try to rev up to redline while parked? Thank infiniti for trying to idiot proof the car. Do you like spending 40k* and blowing your engine just cuz?

2.The exhaust doesn't sound as cool as a 06 Z? Did you ever consider the two are tuned completely differently with different length exhausts? If you don't like the exhaust sound? Buy a new one. Or maybe you shoulda bought a Z maybe???

3. Never tried and why not just use an ipod and call it a day?

Other questions...
1. Lambo doors to look kool for your lil townies? Get a grip n a life buddy. Get lambo doors cuz you like em not cuz everybody in town does it. If everyone in town threw there cars off a cliff? Would you do it too?

2. Why do u wanna override it? Need to rev to redline while parked? Is that really necessary. YOU WILL BLOW YOUR ENGINE!

3. With these dumb azz questions. Don't do burnouts. A matter of fact. Trade in your G37 for a smart car and take the extra cash and go buy some common sense . This is the worst thread in the history of bad threads!!

Don't give me so much credit....lol You can read? This guy
is abusing his engine. I describe the mechanical ramifications
of his abuse and you call it "manufacturing a problem?'. This isn't an
occasional rough idle issue is it? In fact it has nothing to do
with an occasional rough idle does it? So you've never revved
your engine...so what? How do you know that someone didn't
rev the hell out of your engine before you bought it? Bad gas?
a vacuum leak? a partially clogged injector? Spent oil?
I don't think that's your problem. I'd check the intakes
If I were you, specifically check for dirty mass air sensors
or voltage irregularities to them.....another common
VVEL issue you probably don't know about and think
I'm manufacturing? Have you ever thought of that?

Manufacturing a problem? Do you think I'm new? I do product and
corporate research for a living. I do this for fun because I'm a
car/bike/engine buff. Do a search on rough idle on this form,
NICO and Nissan owners forms, Then read the more than 1000
threads, catatgorize and group the issues by climate, OCI/product
driving style, miles on the car, Mods, etc and then discuss
them with a couple of mechanical engineers who know about the
VVEL......Then we'll talk intellegently. Sorry I don't post footnotes
and references in my posts to satisfy you.....that will cost
you. Take it or leave it.

Wow, you're all over the place on this one. My response was directed at your implication in the last line of your post that everyone that has issues at startup must be revving their engines (but most of us would not "admit" same). It was a lame comment for a number of reasons, and I think you know that.

So now you're a psychologist and know what I think....but you
don't understand what I write? That's rich!

Perhaps my comments inferred just what I said, that revving
the VQ37 will cause severe valve train lash and there are plenty
of posts from owners who revved their engines (not knowing how
detrimental it is to the VVEL) who experienced fuel cutoff, Thinking
they went into "limp mode" and/or are having rough idle and don't
know why when in fact they were actually severely abusing their
engines. Obviously, the next several posters who chastised the OP for
abusing his car understood....read the posts

Here's a clue for you..my post wasn't about you and your rough
idle issue. Don't try to make it so. And all VQ 37s don't occasionally
rough idle and make metal-to-metal noises at startup. Go rev your
engine up while it's cold past the fuel cut-off point several times, then
match the results you get with the multiple posts on this forum, NICO
and Nissan forum and let me know if I'm "manufacturing" an issue.

You're right. Your post wasn't about me - it was directed to anyone with a rough idle, and states point blank that it's due to engine revving. I don't personally mind what you think, but I'm concerned to see you putting opinion out there as fact. At the very least, you could qualify your comments by stating that revving could cause the problem, among many other factors. I bet people with rough idles also drive in the rain...there must be a causal relationship there.

For what it's worth, I agree that engine revving is a stupid thing to do for a number of reasons, but I wouldn't put it out there as the common link among engines with this issue.

Either way, it's nothing personal. Relax.
