Said Good Bye to my SE

Well, after 2 1/2 years, I said good bye to my 03 SE last night. It was snowing good and it made me realize I was making a good move. I picked up a 2005 Diamond Graphite/Graphite G35X with everything but Nav. I gotta say that the G is awesome in the snow. I was just not thrilled driving my new car home in a snowstorm...but hey, that's why I got it. Thanks guys for all the info you provided me with. This is an awesome forum!

good luck with the new ride man, and congrats on the new purchase...especially since ill be getting your FSTB

lots of max owners go the route of the G35 or Z after the maxima...maybe in a few years when im done with my max, ill go the same route with the new platform, who knows.

There's a $190,000 skyline for sale on ebay!

How about puting a turbo on a 5.5 MAX? That would be fun and educational.

I got the X which only has 280 hp. Seems a bit quicker than the Max, but it may be due to the fact that it just hooks up and goes. As far as pics go, I will post a couple when I wash all this @#$%^& salt off the car.

The thing that is better than your g35 is your dog... that is a nice looking dog. I wish my pitbull/lab mix looked that nice lol.

Yes, the Modas will fit. I was thinking of selling them. But all I need is 4 5mm H&R spacers and they will go right on. I am sure the G will handle better with the added rubber.
