The Jdm To Us Comparison List

[Deep Dish V35]

this post will be the unofficial chart of comparison between Japanese Nissan and American Infiniti models. to be used as a reference when tyring to buy US parts to suit your JDM vehicle and vice versa.

i'll start some basics, if other people can add info that would be great. Pics would be good but are only relevant for cars that havent had people modify them at home

obviously it will be impossible to make this perfect as the level of mechanical/electrical options make things a bit harder. this mostly just applies to external parts. it will be easy to get carried away with details, not sure how detailed we want this to be..

and i'm not entirely sure ive got my starting details correct so feel free to fix anything.

as people correct the information, we'll just get the Moderators to apply it to this post.

JDM series1 runs through to late 2004. Probably the same as the G35 series1.

Just saying if you get custom fenders for the sedan the rest of the coupe parts bolt straight in.

FYI:

2001/10-2003/11 - sedan V1

2003/11- /2004/05 sedan v1.5 ( radio and some electronics differ.)

2004/05-2006/11 sedan v2 and v3 (V3 got hardware changes on the Navi)

Thanks chris. good to know its not going to be a simple exercise....

Howait - I think we're only going to cover standard fitment. Anything that involves converting a car to another shape should go in a different thread. feel free to start that if you feel like it

[Chris Rogers]

coupe follows a similar idea. te engines are also the same.

And that the 3.5 is DE and the 2.5/30 is DD
