Ok soo .. I wanna buy a 2002 Infiniti G20.. The thing is I am getting mixed emotions about the car..Alot of people are telling me yes go for it others say no its sh*t car? But I am getting the feedback from alot of non nissan drivers. So I decided to come here and ask the Nissan drivers how and what do you think about the Infiniti G20? what are the pro's and con's of the car...
Great handling, but the engine is a bit underpowered for a car that size. Swapping the turbo from a SR20DET should solve that problem though. BTW get the G20T, it has much nicer wheels and better equipment overall.

Definitely gets my vote. Solid car with a solid chassis and with all necessary and unnecessary creature comforts. I second getting the G20T. And welcome to the board.

P11 G20s ('99+) are great performers. You will not be sorry with the purchase... worth the money. Style, looks, suspension setup, and motor strength. If you are looking to put a number of mods on it (engine, not cosmetics), you may do better looking for a '99. I don't remember exactly off the top of my head why, may have something to do with ecu issues from JWT or cams... or both. Either way, Gs are thumbs up all the way.

The SR20 used in the G20 is sensitive to usage. If you drive it like a Grandma, you're gonna sludge it up and ruin the cams. It must see regular visits to redline to keep the upper end properly oiled. As if anyone needed encouragement for buzzing the redline!

G20's are some of the best looking cars around. Especially the backend. I wish I had one...I'll have to settle for the non-luxury version, an SE-R. Yeah, slap a BB turbo in that thing and BAM, kick-ass family car.
