I just wondered if there were any performance mods for this car. Does it share its engine with any other platform? Or is it specific to this car?
The 2004 M45 has very few (if any) performance mods available ... too low a sales volume to justify it for the after-market folks, unfortunately!
It shares the engine with the 2002+ Q45 ... the 340HP VK45DE, although I do not know if there are any ECU programming differences.
The transmission is also virtually identical, albeit perhaps with different programming again in the TCU, to the current-gen G35, Q45 and Nissan Z (I believe).
By the way, yes, I too love the styling! It is mostly based on an older Japanese design (the Nissan Gloria and, to a lesser degree, the Nissan Cedric), but has a unique and rare look that I am quite enamored with!
