Good news, I think the new Nissan Z will have the exact same engine & it's got a manual! I keep telling people that even though the tech and some of these features maybe a bit dated, Nissan has done one thing incredibly well, their V6 engines, They have been around for such a long time enabling them to perfect them.

I personally own a '16 V37 red sport awd, i wasn't a fan of this 7AT at first. However i installed a little auxillary cooler for the trans fluid, and it changed everything about the drivetrain when i throw it in MS and drive mode in Sport+. I also installed a throttle controller and the car launches extremely hard. I love my RS, i will add i definitely want more power, down the rabbit hole i go...again.....

Honestly, I think for the price, it's still well worth it. Currently looking for an awd q50 3.0 and I've found some 2018 models, with only 20-30k miles for around 20-26k and with a e85 tune, uggraded cooling, catch cans, and an exhaust, the car will push 450-500 whp with a cost total of 26-35k. It's such a bargain.

This is a great video. Your opinion on the exhaust from the factory is on point. In fact I have a Buick Enclave and other than the pumped in audio on my Q50 RS400, the comparison is pretty good!

Ok so I watched this video about 4-5 months ago got a 2022 q50 and needed it to be louder that exhaust you guys put on it the ARC GRIP CATBACK EXHAUST with AMS intakes just stock it sounds amazing I have MAP Performance full down pipes but I’m saving up for a heat exchanger so I can start saving for a tune ones that’s done I’m planing on building the outside make it look good and then jump right back into the engine iv done everything myself including the exhaust with just jacks stands and little blood got it done the intakes were a pain in the *** but got them in and it sounds magnificent

You mentioned the older G cars being good drivers cars but what about the Q60? I know it's steering feedback is an issue, are there upgrades for it?

Infotainment is wonky though. Really wish it was just one screen. Other than that love these. Have a g37x coupe with the s breaks, stillen intakes, invada Gemini exhaust, niche m130. Tuned to 300whp. The m129,130 looks great but pain to wash and mount to tires.

with the new Z maybe a manual swap might be easier since they are going to use the same engine . Also more options in aftermarket for sure.

I had a 2018 Q60 New at the time. check engine light at 1200 miles, fixed.... at 4000 miles both turbos and engine had to be replaced. a turbo went bad and sent metal throughout the engine and other turbo. I bought it because of how it looked. Bose stereo All mid-range. :( I now have a BMW M550 This is bad ass!!!

yes i have equtek, AMS downpipes, AMS heat exchanger, Stillen exhaust and Tune.. 456 RWHP, 585 RWTorque worth modifying .... It is a blast...only downside...a bit hard to launch due to wheel spin and a bit too overbearing of a nanny even with it turned off. it will spend the tires a bit in the 2-3 upshift.

Love the vid. What’s the average cost of replacing the turbos and what brand can you suggest? Thanks in advance.

Q60 gang 🤟🏼

This comment is not a deterrent. I am still a 2018 Q60 silver sport owner. This is my experience in the past year. Purchased used, due to a prior loss, with 28k from Infiniti dealer. I wanted a comfortable daily I could easily wrench on when I wanted. I planned to start doing the usual upgrades. At 36k (still stock) I started to occasionally hear a whistle at startup and or acceleration, but not consistent. Changed the drive belt in my garage but that didn’t help. Next culprit was turbos. Took it to Infiniti and sure enough both turbo seals were bad. Specifically noted Gen 1 turbos on service sheet. They replaced both turbos with the Gen 2 (based on part numbers), heat insulators, sensors, “turbocharger INL”, “Nissan long life”, gaskets, clamps, bolts and turbo oil, and EXM update due to newer turbos. This was all covered under warranty. This Q was a one prior owner, clean Carfax. No background on prior owner but very clean at purchase. Only a worn off A/C button, which I managed to fix without removing dash or infotainment system. (Super easy cheap OEM fix). It’s my daily driver in south Florida. Some spirited red lights, fun on-ramps and swift follow-the-leader trips across the alley, still have the same tires at purchase is what I’m saying. Long story not short my stock q60, driven as intended stock, did have turbo failure. I would personally get another daily before I mod this past cooling/intake/exhaust/simple tune. IMO if you want to drift, track or quarter mile only, it probably isn’t the car for you. If you want a fun entry level luxury daily or an affordable comfortable weekend GT type car this may suit your needs. Having the option to weekend wrench some high gain bolt ons and quick turnover back to road made my decision. I’ve also found a lot maintenance parts are the exact same as Nissan Z parts at half the price from Nissan.

I can't wait till you'll do

The vr30 motors are made out of recycled coke cans, they have known coolant consumption issues, and small cheaply made turbos. I put 15k into mine, then realized I’m burning half a L of coolant every month. Was time to sell. Good power potential, but you will start to have headaches eventually. Mine was 2019 Q50 Luxe remote tuned on ECUTEK on 94 pump making around 430whp/wtq on high boost. I had every supporting mod also.

I considered a Q50 or Q60 before buying my F30, but at the end of the day, I couldn't part with BMW. I'm on my fourth BMW and the driving experience is just too good. I wish BMW would have kept hydraulic steering, but even that's not much of a con. Both cars are near identical in terms of performance and potential. The support is also everywhere for BMW's. The Q's are still good looking though and I enjoy seeing them around. Maybe next time I'll more seriously consider buying one.
