599s and 612s are the F cars I am most cautious of on the track as they go well in a straight line but are such terrible handlers and the traction control so intrusive they almost grind to a stop mid-corner. You need to be very carefully lined up in the 35 so that you dont run into the back of them on corner exit as that certainly would be an expensive mess. 360s are generally too slow to mix it with most of the stock GTRs we have on track days so dont really spend much time in their vicinity on the track. F355 and older are generally roadblocks that ruin everyones day. No hating, just generally find them annoying to the faster guys that want to get some track time in :(

Haha man, R35 GTRs are roadblocks when im in my Radical :(

Would be cool if one could drive them on the road......but if I was in the market for a track car I would get a Lotus 2 eleven before a Radical.....(still love the radical but...)

Martin, Martin, Martin.

I see you are still sore since my Ferrari lapped your Ferrari on lap 81 at Mallala the other day.

You have been most radical at attacking these fine gentlemen who like to drive their Ferraris as hard as they did when they were 17 ;)

what did Vin Diesel say in the original Fast and the Furious???? inch or a mile.......

Methinks you would need some very good throttle control to use the short rev range of an LS engine in an open top club car. Traction wise, it just makes sense for them to have a buzzbox engine...

F355, F360 are POS. Italian trash IMHO. If only Ferrari can make their road cars half reliable as their F1 cars, then I will respect them more.

Like a one night stand with a hot blonde, the F355 and F360 are not the cars you want to keep long. Got friends who HAD owned them and they are more trouble than what they're worth, and believe me, they bring a new definition to the terms 'fragile', 'temperamental' and 'overpriced'.

Apart from the 'pose' factor, I can't see why anyone with half a brain and half the logic of a normal person would ever want to choose a F360 over a new GTR.

beacause as I said before, if you can afford one, you can afford both.... I'f you can't afford both you really can't afford to maintain either cars and your better off not wasting your money if you have to borrow on expensive cars...

Are you for real? Even if you can afford both, why would you? The GTR can do everything that the 360 can and even more. So why would you fork out 160k odd for a second hand car that will spend more time in the workshop getting repaired than it does on the road? Why would you spend 160k for a "supercar" that can't even beat a new STi or Evo?

I tell you why. It's because you're a POSER and you want the majority of people (who knows nothing about cars) to look at you and say...."ooohhhh, he's got a Ferrari"

All this talk and love of F360's makes me sick. Any of you fan boys ever had anything to do with them? Seen how fragile and poorly built they are? Seen how BLOODY SLOW they are when on a track? They're pathetic, and are simply a prosthetic extension for short balding men.

There is no contest between one and a 35, but personally, I have no aspiration to own either. The 35 is too smart by half for it's own good, they drive me nuts. GT3 for me :)

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
    • FYI: Racebox RE7R Custom Tunes Released!   https://goracebox.com/.../2017-infiniti-q50-q60-re7r-tcm...   FOR GEN 2 (21+) VEHICLES, PLEASE SEE NOTE AT BOTTOM See more   But whomever tuned your car is the tuner you should go back to, AMS, Sonictune or BT Tune....
