I picked up my Q60 from Sutton Infiniti in Rosebery Monday and I have driving every second of the day enjoying my new toy...

This whip is completely a new beast and Infiniti has done a good job.

The hiccups,

(1) Drive by Wire, well, you will need a bit of patience but that’s no different then hopping in a R35 from a V35.

(2) 19” 245 are just to small 

 

The good news 

Fast and I mean fast not just quick!!

A head turn

Infiniti and Alpha Performance USA have teamed to created Mod parts and possibly a car together 

Turbo lag.... well, let be straight with you, there isn’t any because the torque kicks in at 1600 rpms

Technology... it’s a Nissan enough said!!!

Absolutely love it! One of these is next on my shopping list also. I have been toying with the idea of getting a Q50 for a couple of years, but now the Q60 has come out with the 3.0LTT it is the way to go.

I drive it in sports+ around the city and sport on the hwy. I will put up some new pics up soon.

If you are serious about buying a Q60 then try to get a 2017 because the new 2018 will land soon and the pressure will be on the dealers to unload current stock.

The main differences between 2017/18 are the tires... 19” verses 20” wheels

If you can find a demo model snap it up fast!!

Looks great, I love the look and size of them.
Bits it shares in common with R35 and the packaging puts me off a fair bit. Sounds like a complicated beast. Certainly wouldn't want to work on it myself.

^^ they certainly do. I had a black 280rwkw R34GTT in black and swore I would never own a black car again ... then found my current V35 in a yard and instantly fell in love with it - in black of course ... and here I am hating keeping the thing clean, but am thinking of upgrading and loving of course a black Q50 or Q60. Hmm decisions, decisions!

      RB20DET lean on cold start

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      You shouldn't need to massively fatten up the mixtures for cold conditions. For one thing - 0°C is not that cold. For another, the Haltech will be using the IAT sensor to tell it how dense the air air, and calculate the correct amount of fuelling. Then the cold start enrichment is added as a % on top of that, so it should scale with the main fuelling. You might also doubt the IAT sensor at this time. You're not using one from an RB26 are you? Using a nice Bosch sensor or similar? Happens. Some wideband units take great pleasure in killing their sensors. Put another wideband in the tailpipe and compare. Or just swap the sensor to a brand new one and see.

      Oh, my misunderstand. When the car was running, it sounded ok, but if I gave it any gas it wanted to die but caught itself afterwards. It's very different from how it was a couple months ago when it was warmer outside. The logs show that the AFRs are better during, what I assume, is warmup enrichment. Because it's cold, and air is more dense, should I work on the enrichment bit?

      Rb20e and RB20DET parts

      By A31Skyline · Posted

      yess of course im not using 2nd hand parts from my spare engine, but the place where i live is hard to find parts for the RB20DET ,but for the RB20E is everywhere including new ones and a lot cheaper ,because for the RB20DET you have to order it overseas to get one and it cost a lot of money 3x the price to be exact. so i ask this topic because if i can use the new ones but for RB20E is it compatible or not. if not im screwed haha, not totally screwed but i have to save a lot of money first before i can begin repairing my engine, thanks for the information before.

      Unless my sensor just died, was only a couple months old, I strongly believe it didn't. How can I test it? I never mentioned it being 20:1+?

      Well, you wouldn't use 2nd hand bearings out of another engine anyway....so just buying the proper bearings is obviously what you're going to do. The crankshaft would be common. The conrods might be common. There is essentially nothing else you would be able to use.
