G35 vs 350Z

[Bloodline INC]

im stuck on which one to go with..... ive researched both, both have a wide variety of aftermarket options available which i like.


i like the styling on both, but as far as exteriors go, im feeling the G35 more than the Z. price difference is roughly $4000-5500, pending options. what does everyone think?

[3G]

i like the G35's styling more too

[Bloodline INC]

as for appearance, if i go with the Z it'd be Yellow, and possibly the 35th anniv edition if it comes to canada

for the G35, it'd be a cherry red coupe, and a stillen body kit would be going on.

[Bloodline INC]

also, should i go stillen supercharger or greddy twin turbo? im thinkin the TT way, but has anyone actually driven a ride with the stillen SC's? because apparently they are worth the money you shell out for them from what ive heard.

[Kobe]

I love both cars, but i'd have to go with the 350z, but get it in gold if you do

[Ferio_vti]

Do a search, this topic has been done several times.

G35 styling is so elegant looking while at the same time it screams performance. I really don't like the interior all that much though especially the cluster lighting up yellow (good idea, wrong type of yellow).

On the other hand the 350z's interior is hardcore sexy. But there are some parts of the car I'm not feelin %100. The rear of the car is definetly not as nice as the rear of a G35.

Personally I'd get a 350Z Convertible, I can't look past the interior of the G35.

god... this is so overrated... it's the same shit different pile story... honda = acura, nissan = infiniti, vw = audi, toyota =lexus, etc

it's just supposedly a more "luxurious" model due to the options and "small" styling changes... it costs the same to make both cars... they just get to tack an extra 3-8 thousand dollars to the price tag once u go up to the luxurious brand name

civic = el
350z = g35
accord = tsx
jetta = A4
you get the picture...

[That.Guy.S30]

i beleive the stillen superchrager for the 350/g35 has a FACTORY warrenty.

[PGTze]

I'd get a 350Z, I see alot less of them on the road, at least in Calgary.

...isn't the G35 less money??
You could get a G35, and then you could be cool and JDM and put the JDM Skyline badges on it because the G35 is the new R35 overseas. Personally, though, I like the 350 better.

[Importz]

350Z....more sporty....imo

I was under the impression that the warranty was only for the supercharger unit, and that Nissan would not warranty any possible damages to the powertrain due to the install.... :dunno:

[pixil9]

the 350z can't even handle a set of golf clubs..

The G35 is more money.

The correct code is V35, Skyline Coupe, Skyline Sedan, G35 etc. The R designation refers to the GTR. There is no R35 as of yet.

sorry. what i meant was that they you can order the unit from nissan and they will install it. the warrenty to the powertrain and the engine is covered by stillen.

[statick]

u goin for perfromance, then get a 350z and get the twin turbo kit. if ur goin for more stock/luxury ride, then go with a G35.
i'de go with either depending on if i want luxury or performance, (they are more or less the same, but 350z has small things which affect performance).

1/4 mile times at sea level:

G35 coupe: 14.2
350Z track: 14.1

[That.Guy.S30]

^^ they have different autocross times tho dont they?

[statick]

probly, 350z is suposed to handle better.

[Moe Man]

what a stupid thead..........

why not compare these cars too:

camaro VS firebird
sunfire VS cavalier
jimmy VS blazer
civic VS acura 1.7
silverado VS seria
savana VS express
yukon VS taho............etc

notice any difference besides the emblems and the grills ?

[persianprideboy]

[crazydriver]

There is no R35 as of yet. where did you get that from (facts only, please), Here in L.A. motorex imports r33 and r34 GTS 4door skylines as well as GTRs. If its any skyline made between( 89-94 = R32) (95-98 = R33) (99-01 = R34)

Yes it is. The G35 is. Direct from the Nissan Japan Site. Dont get the Skyline confused with the Skyline GTR. They are 2 different cars.

Just looked at site and it is wack that the 350Z, G35, fairlady Z and the skyline are the same thing. Only these new skylines are not R** and the GTR has not been made since o1, and 01 4doors are R34s

[Xtrema]

This require only a simple answer

Back seat:

Yes = G35
No = 350Z

[CryoCarnage]

yeah you gotta have the back seat.

[rockym20]

For the price, I'd get a WRX STI. Has 4 doors, AWD, and will probably kick the ass of a 350Z or G35 (not to mention a huge aftermarket for it).

[QuasarCav]

I like the G35 better, But the 35th anniversary Z might change my mind.

Exactly, the 350z doesn't deliver enough performance to have no back seats. The G will perform almost identically and you have extra utility.

[habsfan]

my choice would be the 350Z. the side profile is just so damn hot:drool:

[ehos]

G35! Car of the year (twice!).

[diycx]

Are there any turbo/SC kits out for the G35? I thought none had come out since it has a drive-by-wire throttle system instead of the 350's drive-by-cable. I haven't been keeping up on it though...

So you don't have a prefence??? Yeah the differneces are not huge but I'd still have a preference if considering purchasing one of the 2. Or maybe I sould just iny miny miney mo that shit hey???

Taken from Nissan.ca regarding the 350Z :

Electronic drive-by-wire throttle - standard.

There are forced induction kits for both cars, they are pretty much identical.

How about the extra 2 seats in the G35? Or maybe the G35's different wheelbase?

Just a couple thoughts.

Thanks for your input. :thumbsdow

[boi-alien]

G35... PIMP!! :bigpimp:

[1badPT]

Z :thumbsup:
G35 :thumbsdow
:closed:

[Bloodline INC]

anything thats offered as far as forced induction on the Z is also available for the G35. its the exact same block in both cars. and if stillen offers warranty on there SC kits, that may be the way to go.... especially considering my luck with drivetrains.


thanks for all the opinions so far guys. :thumbsup:
