Hi all looking for some insight into the emblems for my 370gt. Was wondering if the US G37 Infiniti Emblem should be compatible with the JDM 370GT front grille? Was told they would fit but once i got it, there has been a lot of resistance just to place the emblem in place, but it would not clip in at all. Has anyone else had any luck? maybe im doing it wrong? the Original Nissan emblem fits perfect, no resistance and just pops into place. It fills like to me that they are not interchangeable.

Any input is appreciated, especially with photos!

Thanks

They are not interchangeable - the Nissan and Inifniti badges are different sizes. Even on V35s you have to buy a different front grille in order to fit the G35 badging.

Are you sure about that? Because i placed an order for this:

Was under the impression that they should fit on our V35 given from what i was told.

^^^ so seriously, the OP has said he fell for some idiot telling him that an Infiniti badge will direct fit a V35 (like you have), he has it in his hand and sure enough it won't fit, and you want to dispute it?

If you are handy with a dremel you might make it fit :)

And Seano you CAN'T road register a G35 (unless you are talking the convertible V36 version out of Europe). And when Infiniti start selling cars in Aus shortly you will see lots of people putting Infiniti badging on their V35s ..... once people start considering Infiniti to be a premium brand, people will respect it more. A lot like people putting Lexus badging on their Soarers.

Actually, I just found out from the seller that the one I purchased was not for a G37 Coupe but for a G37 sedan and apparently they have different grilles. So there might still be hope yet, just emailed an infiniti dealer in the states to confirm.

It will as long as you match the body type. That is, be sure to get the coupe badge or the sedan badge. I've got the 2009 370GT coupe and I made sure that the grille emblem I got was the badge for a 2010 G37 coupe, as that's the equivalent model. Mine clipped straight on, no problem. The only thing I needed to do though was to get out the polish and rub away some of the baked in dirt that was trapped behind the Nissan Hamburger, which is a little wider than the Infiniti Mt Fuji.

[Edit]: I should've read the rest of the thread. Seems you've already been told the same reason. :)

For what it's worth, here's the one I bought and it was from the same seller: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/OEM-INFINITI-G37-COUPE-2DR-FRONT-GRILLE-EMBLEM-CHROME-/280951353466?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item416a01707a

I'll dispute it, from experience but only on a V36. I don't know about a V35 though given the OP was talking about a 370GT which would make it a V36. :)

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      S15 Spec R

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
