Just a side note, I have a 2008 Infiniti EX35 AWD 5 speed. VQ35HR ENGINE. (297hp/253 ibs/tORQUE)
It is a bit heavier than the G37 coupe/sedan. I think mine is around 3,975 IBS.
It is not loaded so it is a lot lighter than 4k IBS EX35.

Temp outside is 47 F , on a flat surface too.

Car info : On a stock EX35 rims (heavy) with 225/60/17 snow tire (Michelin X-ice 2)

Tranny: 5 speed - used Manual mode on all runs. 45MPH where reached at the end of 1st gear at close 7.5k RPM( I did not bump the speed limiter) towards 2nd gear shift.

Jordo MAP 1st and 2nd run from top to bottom. (BELOW)




Wstar Map (Below)




I alternate runs between Jordo and Wstar. Jordo 1st run, then wstar 1st run. Then I shut the engine off for 5 minutes. I did the 2nd run with Jordo map again, then did wstar. The best time was 4.15 sec 0-45 using wstar MAP. (THROTTLE MAP) and I expect to be slower since engine is hotter, but it was the best time.

I apologized for just doing 0-45 MPH. I do not have a nice stretch of local road that is safer to do these runs. Numbers are slower than the G37 i expect from 0-45 sec. =)

I have not tried 0-60 on wstar throttle map yet. I am waiting to put on my summer wheels (17.5 ibs each) - The best 0-60 run i did was 6.3 sec. flat on Cipher with summer wheels with 89 F degree weather. I expect to be faster with wstar ETC MAP.

And BTW, I after doing these runs, I decided to try ETC: OFF , but after cruising with this setting, It does not make sense to do the 0-45 sec run. It`s just weird, car does not bog down on downshift, but it does not have that seat of pants pull.

I wish I could get some comparison from you guys with the G37 0-45 sec. run. - N/A engine pls. =)
Just curious, does Jordo or wstar seem to pull stronger off the line?

jrb55gh,

Wstar kick *** off the line, the midrange is phenominal! Although, both Wstar and Jordo power start at 2.5K rpm in my car, I bet the G's must be lower due to lower gearing on the 7A/T or 6 speed manual.

In my car, I just floored it ( no torque breaking) from dead start. I need to hit 7.5k rpm to get a better 0-60 as I tried it early on my etuning phase. I experiment shifting at 7.1 -7.2 k RPM and lose about .2 -.3 secs.

I am excited to do another 0-60 run using wstar throttle map this time, but I need to install my summer rims (17.5 ibs) and tires first. I will do it next weekend.
