Nope. If I'm not mistaken it was retired 2 issues ago and actually for sale in the last issue.

Indeed it has been a while since an update on project G35 sedan... and you are correct that the car is for sale... however, last I heard (couple weeks ago) the car has not been sold - which gives hope for revival

Plus, it's not the only modded sedan - but it is the one that got me going in the direction I went... and Thanks to DaveO's great write-ups, insight and help, I've been succesfull at creating a decent car.

So basically, I hope there's future content for the G (and specifically pre-07 sedans).

Project G35 really gave me alot of ideas as far as what I wanted to do with my own Brilliant Silver G35 sedan. I can just assume after getting t-boned by a truck Dave isn't exactly over-joyed with the sedan.

That snafu was fixed a long time ago… my understanding is he’s been real busy with primary job. Plus he got a Frontier, so I think he’s more focused on tweaks for it these days?

He’s a wealth of knowledge – I really miss the forum posts and mag articles of his.

Heck, I've got a G35 Sedan and I miss DaveO's articles, too ... and I'm on the staff! He's one of the most thorough, technically astute car guys I've met. Right now he is slammed with his other job as a powerplant guru (his services are high in demand) and anything less than a 10-hour day at work is like a vacation for him....

That said, there may be other G35 pieces to come out of his brain, plus he's looking at upgrading his Frontier ... and, wait for it ... buying a NISMO 370Z.

Nice to see you out here Dave! Congrats on the sell of the car - but it sucks that you are leting it go - you have been a tremendous help to me over the past 4+ years and I really appreciate you!

I hope you dont lose interest in the old school Gs

BTW - what do you have for sale on the part out? (the way I read it, the list above are going with the car?)

I'm in for one of the filters and possibly the lower collector (if it's identical to the one you did for me, I know someone who might want it)

I'll give you a call soon - hang on to them for me

Mike,

With the latest changes to your G35 Sedan you've taken it to the next level. I especially like the hood scoop and the rear lights and molded in lip spoller.

thanks Dave - and thanks for your help yesterday... I wish we could have got some of the other trciks to work (sometimes modding isnt so easy )

BTW, thanks for the JWT filter too
