Is there a way that wouldnt be too expensive that I could get the tight feel of the g37 brakes and steering? I already blead the brakes...maybe have to change the rear pads...but still nowhere near the g37 brake feel. Also, what would I need to do, if possible, to make the steering tighter? Not really trying to spend more than $1000 on this.

For the brakes, you could install some SS brake lines (Goodridge comes to mind). Those should give you immediate results, but I'm not sure if it'll give you that feeling that you are looking for.

SS lines is a start. Really what you want to figure out is how to increase the vacuum going to the brake booster. If you follow the brake booster vacuum line see where it's connected to the intake manifold. Perhaps it's gummed up with oil? My brakes are pretty good. Also make 100% sure you bled the system completely. How did you do it list details.

Try adding this if you are sure your brakes a properly bled and still feel weak. When I say weak I don't mean mushy rather more like rubbery or not as sensitive. At least that's how I can tell the difference in my mind lol.
