Any Suggestions on what to do with it on an unlimited budget?

That's a tough question, they are so awesome as it is..... How about the greddy kit? It's being made for the 350z, but since it's the 'same' car, it should be no problems to fit. I think the last # I heard was around 400whp.

So that's one thing, how about a nice brake upgrade, and uhhhh.... hmmmm... well... Can't think of much else

[edit]
Oh yea, lot's of suspension ****... I hear the G35 is a little softer than the 350z... So maybe some goodies there

Keep an eye on this site. They say that they will be bringing over some JDM parts for the Skyline sedan and coupe (What they are called in Japan) G35Accessories.com
As far as mods, I woud go with that Greddy kit, unless you want to wait and see what Nissan does to the FM platform (which underpins the G35 Sedan and Coupe, the 350Z, and the Infiniti FX35/45) when it makes the next Skyline GT-R. It is rumored to be either a twin turbo VQ V6 or a V8 based off of the one from the Q45. The should both be about 450hp. The V8 already fits in the platform since it already resides in the FX45. He already has great brakes - Brembo's all the way around.

yeah I get to drive it all the time we already walked a prelude with nitrous ....it was hilarious!!!
I think I can talk him into the stillen supercharger but the turbo is pretty outrageous...obviously in a good way

supercharger with exhaust you get about 380hp so its not a bad deal for 3900 bucks

I went to a Mazda dealer on Sunday and took a ride in a RX-8 with my father. I think he is very interested in getting one. Was that sharp red, black leather, bose sound systerm, HID's, 18 inch rims (whole nine yards). The salesman said that most of them come with many options in them. The price of this one was 31K.

Man, was a nice ride. I think the G35 is a sharp ride, too. I'm jealous and wish I had extra income to treat myself to either of these cars. Someday.......

saweet car, get him to badge it like the skyline. Basically the G35 coupe and sedan here are the Japanese Nissan Skylines. I dunno why Infinity took over em and called them the g35 thou.

Seen 2 with the Nissan Skyline Badged G35's. both at carlisle car show to.
