I think this guy really loves his Fuga(M35). This car is just like my wife's M35X but my wife's M also comes with a newer engine(VQ35HR) plus AWD...
By the way my wife says that she still loves its exterior and interior even though it's very old now. (This generation M began at late 2004!!! It's around 15 years ago... )
I didn't modify her M's brake. I just replaced OEM pads with Hawk HPS pads and that's it. Of course I also put a set of good tires on it (Michelin PILOT SPORT A/S 3+) which could be most sticky tires except summer performance tires (but summer tires usually get much shorter life) since I know she may drive her M quite fast sometimes...
This car is almost 10 years old but only 80K kms now. Her M didn't have any problem except its air conditioner. I recharged it with AC Pro (about 40USD after rebate) in early summer 2017. Now my wife still says its air conditioner is AS COLD AS ICE!!!
Case 1. I did an emergent stop on highway because the front car stopped suddenly. The car behind me was a STI. The STI driver immediately steered his/her car to highway shoulder to avoid the crash.
Case 2. Again I did an emergent stop on highway because the front car stopped suddenly. The car behind me was a Civic. I saw that Civic stopped quite nicely but what I really couldn't understand on that Civic was that it just stopped there when all the cars started to move slowly. I kept checking my mirror and that Civic didn't begin to move at all. Not sure why? That Civic just stopped there until it disappeared in my mirror!?!
Case 3. I did an emergent stop on city roads because the front car stopped suddenly. The car behind me was VW and it stopped nicely. However the car behind VW was a very old Maxima. I could hear that Maxima's tires squealled loudly and finally hit that VW behind me!?!
I think my 2007 G35S's brake was good but maybe too good for some people...
In GSF I have to use more foot force to get similar braking power than in G. I think it's not a bad thing. That means the braking power in GSF is more easier to modulate which is good on race tracks. In G I only apply little foot force and get very good braking power. That's easier in daily use but it may become difficult on race tracks because I may need to control braking power more precisely on race tracks...
Similar the throttle control in my G is much more aggressively. So it will push me to drive my G fast, always. In GSF the throttle control is much more linear. So I can control when I really want to push my car to the limit...
Of course she picked my wife's 2010 M35X(stock suspension). My son's G35S(PSS10) and my GSF is better. However, I asked her how about Q5... Guess what? She said Q5 was much worse than my wife's OLD M.
So... I think these premium Nissan owners really don't need to underrate your current premium Nissans!!! And also should NOT be TOO OPTIMISTIC on those expensive and unreliable European cars!!!
