Just FYI

 

The 2018 Infiniti Red Sport Q60 with 400 ponys is a bargain at $59,000 when a few people in here purchased there G35/37 for $30,000 and only got 300hp

And tuning is happening in Oz

 

A Facebook page is up about Infiniti Australia...

Yeap new and reliable vs ......not

Which one is which??

The Infiniti cost $60k, even adding another $10k that's only $70k to spend, what does that money buy.

A 10 year old GTR for around $75k, but would you, I personally wouldn't touch a cheap 10 year old GTR with a 10 foot barge pole.

Those things cost your kidneys when they break.

I wouldn't touch either, personally.
Q60 ain't gonna be cheap when it breaks either, depending on warranty conditions.

I assume resale value gonna plummet on Q60 too, going as new cars do, while GTR got a pretty strong secondhand market for 2010 and newer.

Flip before end of warranty, easy.

I'm not saying a GTR is a bad buy, I'm saying buying from the bottom of the barrel could be a expensive endevour.

Expensive cars that are being sold at the lower end of the price scale makes my spidey senses tingle.

Opinions may vary

I have had my Q60RS for a 1 1/2 years and there has been nothing wrong with my car... 

I’m not too sure where you guys are getting this information from, I know in the forum in America Q50/60 there have been some problems but not my car

 You can buy a 400Hp car without any tuning problems... why not !!

A 25 year old modified car with questionable reliability came into this discussion how??

Just seems ridiculous to compare a 60k car to a 30k one, so thought I'd join in the fun.

As for questionable reliability...well...10 years without missing a beat at that power level. But even new VWs are "questionable".

The other 45k saved ought to more than cover anything that goes wrong until the other cars drop to the same value ?

It’s that time Bird..

I had a 96 GTST and spent to damn much to get my car to 400RWHP but it became to old and I had to trade it in

Then I got a 2005 GT350 or G35 and that was to slow but more reliable, but that car became to old too 

 

So, now I have a 400 HP car with damn near 400RWHP but no mods yet and you can get one for that price I posted ... if you can afford one buy one ...

but we all have our opinions and yours is valid to Bird

      How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.

      Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
