The STi and G35 are completely different vehicles. Personally, I hate the way the STi looks...I'd go with the Lancer Evo...but they both are in a different class, compared to the G35. The Infiniti is more refined, luxurious, and smooth. The STi and Evo are very fast tuner cars with hard seats, ricer-boy looks, and high strung engines.
Speaking of engines, the VQ35 is a terrific engine! Unlike most stock engines, Nissan really did their homework. It is tuned very well from the factory, which is why its somewhat difficult to extract more HP. However, adding FI will be fine on a stock block. HP levels at around 400rwhp are the accepted limit for stock internals. Most twin turbo or supercharger kits are below this number, so you should be fine. If you do go FI, do it right and tune the car.
Someone the other day said they found an 05 with under 10k for 26k...That's a great deal, expect to pay 28-30 for 05-06 with low miles. The 03-04's are a little cheaper, but not much. The deals are out there...Kenrik's car seems like a good deal to me if you want an 03.
Go with the G!
