Note, that this number is on higher octane race fuel. He's going to be putting down less on pump gas, though these are still respectable numbers.

Also, it can be done for cheaper on a bigger displacement engine, but that's clearly not the point. It's certainly more unique than big power from an F body vehicle, in its own right.
I posted on page one that the numbers on ****ty 91 octane is about 516 hp and 528 ft.lbs of torque.

Impressive no matter what it is. How can one use a F-body to compare, V8 vs. V6. Look at the car posted it a pile of plastic crap(f-body). If the G35 was the M45 then you can cry wolf at least they have a V8. Also your comparing an engine and car that cost 20k+ brand new vs. a car that cost 30k+ brand new. One with almost 20yrs of knowledge and aftermarket backing to one that been around since 03.

Amazing the level of hate in this thread.
Had this been an IS with 2jz. and people on other forums were calling it Jap Crap most of you would be offended.

Funny how it looks when the shoe's on the other foot.
Either way amazing car coming from someone who's owned multiple Lexus and Infiniti cars...remember folks....Lexus = Toyota Luxury while Infiniti= Nissan Luxury/Sport

Let's not get our panties all in a bunch over import cars which are all good
