infiniti tuning

i saw a few infiniti G20's around the streets of NoVA (northern VA), and i'm thinking i might want one. unfortunately it has a very weak 4cyl engine, and i was hoping to get something along the lines of a turbo4 or a 6cyl as my next car...but i'm really diggin how these look.

so my question, how tunable is a G20? does it share the same engine, drivetrain, etc as the altima or maxima? also, anyone know of some decent nissan/infiniti tuning sites? i'd like to see some examples of hooked up G20's before i go daydreaming about having one.

thanks!

it shares the engine with the sentra which isnt that bad and you can do some stuff with it, but if you want something with a lot more options and power, try the maxima or altima.

SE-R.net

FAQ on that engine

if youre really interested in infiniti, you might want to wait for the g35, the infiniti version of the SKYLINE! IMO, the front end is a little funny looking, but if it performs anything like the skyline, you wont have to worry about that too much

The new Altimas are looking pretty darn good and that V6 engine doesn't hurt them one bit.

nissan is totally underrated. maxima, altima, skyline all the way. not to mention the nice engine under the hood of the pathfinder.

I've read reports that the V-Spec is no faster than the SE-R. I'd rather put the extra sticker cost into an aftermarket suspension, or better brakes. If I'm paying extra, gimme speed - I can do the rest myself.

Three friends of mine have all said that Nissan dealerships SUCK. If you're buying used, go for it.
