2003 Infiniti I35 6 Speed Manual Transmission. Limited Slip on 2040-cars
Oskaloosa, Iowa, United States
|
Clean and clear Missouri title This was originally a standard 2003 i35 with a little over 200,000 well-maintained miles. Got it with a bad engine but since the body was good I decided to swap the engine and transmission while at it. The donor car was a 2003 Nissan Maxima (Titanium Edition, 6 speed manual with a Helical Limited Slip Differential). Everything was done meticulously without cutting corners. I have receipts for the parts I bought but I have no receipts for labor. I did all the work in my garage.Let's get straight to the point, listing the good and the bad. Forgive me as I go into a detailed description, but you can't find this thing on wikipedia. Good The car runs and drives properly. It pulls strong with no strange noises Electronics work: windows, locks, sunroof, seats Every light works like it should: headlights, foglights, turn signals. hazards. I even managed to connect the cornering lamps The interior is pretty good for a 200K mile car The exterior is also in good shape for the age. Most, if not all of the 100K mile maintenance was done to the engine as well as other "while the engine is out" stuff: - OEM Nissan Spark plugs - All ignition coils are good - Intake manifold gaskets - Exhaust gaskets - Valve cover gaskets - PCV valve - Some hoses - MAF, throttle body, intake cleaning - Oil pan half moon seals - Timing chain. Timing chain guides are in good condition and there is no rattling whatsoever - Axle seals - New KOYO radiator with lifetime warranty - Newer high pressure power steering hose - All fluids flushed: Clutch, brake, engine oil, transmission/gear oil, coolant & blinker fluid - Buffed out and paint treated the common trouble areas for this model year But it can't possibly be perfect, right? It drives, yes... but it could use an alignment/ wheel balancing The speedometer does not work. It worked on the donor car right before the project started. I have not had time to test it, but I suppose it is the speed sensor in the transmission The ABS light is on. You can hear the pump run when the car is turned on. The regular brakes work just fine though The SRS light started blinking about a week after startup. All the airbags are intact but it might have something to do with me removing the seats and turning the car on. I honestly haven't looked into this issue yet. The seatbelts work The check engine light is on and the only 2 codes point to the fuel sender unit. This should go away when the tank is filled, but I can include a spare used fuel pump unit with the sale Both bumper covers have paint imperfections There is minor surface rust on the driver side rear wheel well. I think it can be arrested and effectively stopped Miscalleneous details The interior is 2-tone tan and black. I still have the tan pieces if the buyer prefers to have a fully tan interior Has one key and one key fob I am not a salesman, just a guy who had some time on his hands. I am selling it now because I can't seem to find time for the car anymore. The car is nice, but I ride a bike in the summer and I see no point in paying insurance and registration for a car to sit in my driveway. I have other projects that I need to free up the space for. That being said, I am not trying to trick anyone. It is not licensed at the moment, so I've only made a few spirited runs around the block and let it idle extensively under load (No leaks, no overheating). I also know that I cannot make up all the money spent on parts or labor on it. I just want it gone. The car is located in zip code 52577. Buyer arranges for vehicle delivery after payment clears. If you make it here, I am open to test drives. Will add pictures, video links & more information as I remember it. |

Infiniti Q50 to enter British Touring Car Championship
Sat, 18 Oct 2014Infiniti doesn't have much in the way of motorsports heritage. Sure, its logo is currently plastered all over the open-wheelers of the Red Bull Racing Formula One team, but that's little more than a series of stickers - the turbocharged V6 hybrid still comes from corporate cousin Renault.
Perhaps realizing that, the company is dipping its toe into the motorsports pool in a much bigger way (albeit in a far smaller series). The Nissan-owned luxury brand will campaign its Q50 sedan in the notoriously rowdy British Touring Car Championship with a new factory team, called Infiniti Support Our Paras Racing.
The team works with British veterans' charity Support Our Paras, and actually will employ a number of injured vets as part of the team, according to the report on Motor Authority.
2014 Infiniti Q50 priced from $36,450*
Wed, 27 Mar 2013With the 2014 Infiniti Q50 going on sale this summer, Infiniti has finally released pricing for its all-new and newly named sedan. In base form, the Q50 will start at $36,450 (*including $905 for destination and handling), which represents a drop of $900 compared to the current G37 Sedan.
In standard form, the Q50 is available in base, Premium and Sport trim levels with each offering the option of all-wheel drive for an additional $1,800. All gas-only Q50s come with the automaker's excellent 3.7-liter V6 engine, but stepping over to the Q50 Hybrid gets you a smaller 3.5-liter V6 paired with an electric motor. The Q50 Hybrid, which is available in Premium and Sport trim levels only, will begin at $43,700 for a rear-wheel-drive Sport model.
Potential buyers who preorder and ultimately purchase a Q50 during the unspecified "program period" will also get a free iPad mini. Scroll down for the official press release breaking down all trim levels and price points.
Infiniti cribs new US boss from Porsche
Mon, 19 Aug 2013Just weeks before he was supposed to become CEO of Porsche Cars Australia, Infiniti has apparently offered Porsche COO and Executive Vice President Michael Bartsch a deal he couldn't refuse. Thus, Bartsch has join the company as Vice President of Infiniti Americas, the luxury marque's top North American post. Bartsch replaces Ben Poore, who has been with the automaker since 2008, having led both a 22-percent sales surge in 2012 and the brand's current sales slough, Automotive News reports.
Bartsch, Porsche's No. 2 US executive, has held the COO and Executive Vice President positions at Porsche since 2005 and was scheduled to become CEO of Porsche's Oz division on September 1. Infiniti has experienced a number of recent personnel changes in the past week: it named Vincent Gillet, formerly an executive for Starwood Hotels & Resorts, to lead its marketing efforts worldwide and Simon Cox, a former designer for automakers including Ford and Peugeot, to head a new design studio in London.
Poore reportedly will pursue other interests outside of the auto industry. Read more about the personnel change in the press release below.
