I think I still love that old Nissan. With PSS10 the handling are much better than my wife's 2010 M35X. The acceleration is also better.
I also like the factory Bose system.
The handling should be about as good as my GSF + Ohlins DFV 16/12K. Of course, if I push both to the limit, GSF still feels better thanks to its higher body rigidness.
In addition, the steering from GSF is still better and more accurate... (This is especially good when I overtake other cars on very busy highways as I could easily feel the lane changes from steering wheel without really seeing the lane differences)

Believe it or not, I never changed any chassis parts on that Nissans except PSS10, Eibach F&R sway bars and SPC F&R chamber kits.
Even Eibach sway bars and SPC chamber kits on that Nissan are at least 8 years old now!!!

It has 272hp from factory. How fast it is for 0-60mph... It's 6.2x according to the below video.
I think Nissan does much better in this respect as I tested 0-60mph for a rental 2019 Q60 300hp which is about the same fast as Q50 300GT. It was 5.2x EASILY even with some cheap gas since it was a rental car...

However, it seems that my wife and my daughter don't like it!!! They can accept Q60 but not new Z...(My wife also doesn't like Miata, either) Maybe I need to give my current GSF to my wife... (Of course, I still can drive my GSF anytime when she doesn't need it )
PS: My wife does LOVE my GSF a lot but she doesn't like Ohlins suspension... She thinks GSF's stock suspension is already very good!!!

The A/C from my wife's M35X is still as cold as ice!!! (I did buy AC pro[$35 after rebate] to refill the A/C one time in 2017 spring)
However, we did encounter the below two new issues on this old Nissan last year and this year...
1. One of the two factory key remotes doesn't work. (last year)
2. The transmission gear indication in the instrument becomes a little blurred. (this year)
We will NOT fix those issues as they are not critical at all... (We will not need those failing functionalities)

When she changed 2000 Maxima(Koni Sport+H&R springs) to 2010 M35X in 2011. She said new M35X was unstable and difficult to drive...
Why doesn't my wife like Ohlins suspension now??? Maybe she is getting old and over 50 and doesn't like those stiff aftermarket suspensions now...

When my wife changed 2000 Maxima(Koni Sport+H&R springs) to 2010 M35X in 2011. She said new M35X was unstable and difficult to drive...
I also told her new M35X should be much more comfortable but she said she couldn't remember it... (In fact, she drove our Maxima in Taiwan and drove her new M35X in USA!!! )
I think my wife is over 50 now. I bet she will NOT like that Maxima if she can drive it again...
PS: Please do not say how good your BMWs including some M cars are... If compared with those stiff aftermarket suspensions, they're still way TOO SOFT!!!
