- The car is officially sold but i wanted to put a video out there to talk about this car and if i still think is a good option in 2022. This is been an incredible car but is time to get an SUV due a baby on the way.
Link to websites where i get the parts from:

Speechless at how clean and well worked on this Q50 is…….Literally have no words this is one magnificent piece of art 💯
Lol i'm flattered, thank you
I agree I’m trying to copy him as much as I can lol
Glazzzzzeeeeee
My 1st infiniti was an '03 5AT coupe. Loved it.
My current is an '08 5AT coupe, sitting on 175K and she gives me zero issues and pulls like a newer motor. I'll be honest about it, I treat my car like CRAP, and that VQ37 still starts up 1st time every time and runs. HARD.
Sad to see her go but on to new things in life. If I ever purchase a q I would strive for this level of dopeness congrats on your baby
Thank you very much ❤️
I love this man. This is exactly how I want mine to be, not too crazy just right.
I appreciate that, that was the goal.
One of the cleanest Q’s I’ve seen
thanks a lot!
this video made me excited. About to look at a 2014 Q50S this weekend. hope everything checks out good and hopefully take it home. coming from a 05 G35 coupe.
It's a great car, good luck 🤞
hey bro your fitment is beautiful. i have a 2019 graphite shadow. I'm definitely aiming towards a similar spec. First person I've seen with the blue calipers. Fire.
I appreciate it. I got them powder coated and they look OEM, after 3 years they still look new.
I'm hopefully buying a 3.0T tomorrow. Never been into modding my last cars a whole lot but I'm definitely open minded! glad to hear your 3.7 has faired you well
Is it the 2016?
@@basicnemesis2973planing on getting a 2016 rs 400 anything I should know ?
@@kurou8052018 and below had lots of turbo issues i hear, also about to get a 3.0 vut im sticking with 2018-2020 so it's cheaper but still fresh :)
Thanks for your input 🙏🏼 it really helped
Those 2 piece rotor are gorgeous fitment is perfect as well
Thanks a lot!
Bro your car is like perfect looking😳 that’s how I want my q50
Thanks a lot!
I got a 2019 Silver Sport at 36.5k miles. You said the issue became less of an issue with those models going forward. Also sick car dude I hope to make mine look cosmetically as good as yours in 1 year.
Yeah the 2019 is clear of some issues but still not as reliable as the older platform, just keep up with maintenance and you should be fine.
Beautiful work on this car
That Q Is clean Bro !!
This one is beautiful. I’m going to buy one when I have the rest of the money 🤙🏼
This is a VERY nice car. Good review. I'm sorry you get rid of it, but you will get something even nicer in the future.
Indeed it was, thank you very much. First time reviewing a car so i was a little stiff and all over the place, but i won't get better if i don't put videos out there.
@@rizocars6115 I liked it. You reviewed it like an actual car owner. What a cool car!
Nice 3.7 hope my 2020 will look as slick in 6 years!
great review man, I hope i can get my hands on one in the near future :)
It's a great car
Sold my 3.7 a few months ago to upgrade to a 440i didn’t get it yet have a beater and saving for it now but man do I miss that car so much such a great car for the value and just in general
I'm sure you'll forget about the Q when you get the 440i lol.
dude that thing is beautiful
Very clean!!!!💯
Great works bro 😎👏🏻❤️💙
Thank you
Very sharp looking car!!!
Hi from Kazakhstan bro, very nice car!
Thank you
Love it! I have a QX30 and want to make it look like that. If you have any advice I'd really appreciate it! Awesome car bro!!
Thank you, the qx30 doesn't have much aftermarket supposed, i just did the brakes and OEM sports wheels
I just bought a 3.7. And im absolutely in love with my car! I dont have to be the fastest. Its plenty quick for me. Im planning on getting all the usual mods so i can still get the most out of it.
Awesome!!! It's a great car, let me know you have any questions.
What mods will you be rocking and what will be the final hp?
Super Clean man! Do you remember where you got your wing at?
Straight 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks for the Video and yes I would keep it. Planning on purchasing one within the next month and I'm going with the 3.7 engine 2015 model. Proven engine with enough power for me.. Congratulations as well... 👍🏼
Thank you! And yes the 3.7 is bullet proof. It sounds so much better too
I got my 2015 3.7 in 2018.
The only modification I made was changing the trunk struts (highly recommend). I bought it at 30K miles in 2018 and have 72K now in 2022. I have had no issues and change the oil every 3-5K miles. If it has good history, it's worth.
The only downside I have heard is they rust pretty bad in the northern states.
Please put links for your mods in description. Beautiful work you've done man, absolutely incredible
Ill work on that, thank you
So clean
Beautiful car
i had a 07 g35x then i got a 10' g37x now i have a 15' q50s. it has 150k miles on it and still running strong with no issues
They are strong reliable cars.
I bought 2014 rebuilt title q50 3.7 at 110k miles im at 150k i have havie foot one thing i recommend if you like to use sport mode i suggest doing tune ups every year and really keep up with the maintenance itll last you easily to 200k
Im sorry for your loss 😭😭😭😭
Looks very good 👍🏾
Thanks a lot
Thanks for the review and a clean showcase of all the mods. Will be moving unto a Q50 3.7 from a Honda Accord 03 2.4 so it'll be a significant jump on performance for me. Glad that it's reliable as well. Couldn't find any other cars that are sporty, not a crapbox, decently reliable, a bit utilitarian, beautiful, and affordable.
That's a Q50S though right? The front bumper looks more aggressive than a regular Q50 or is it just because of the splitter and the chrome delete?
Yeah is a q50s, i had a Honda Accord 2.4 myself before this car.
How is the q50 for u moving from the same accord as well
Beautiful machine! But the stock Q50 3.7 RWD is not slow lol! Bone stock, I ran a best of 13.51 @ 103.88 @ over 900 feet altitude in an 83 degree and humid Georgia late spring temp. Before my mods, my Q was consistently running 13.50-13.70's @ at least 103 mph. The stock 300 HP 3.0 TT is not faster than a stock 3.7, especially above 60 mph. My buddy owned a '18 Q50 Luxe 3.0T RWD, and he'd only get me by a car length to 60 before I slowly reeled him in and then started walking him and pulled away faster the faster we went.. We even switched cars with the same result. He ran a best time of 13.79 @ 102.5 by the way. Not faster than the 3.7 stock vs stock. I don't care what anybody says. Anyway lol, that is one of the nicest Q50's I've ever seen man! That nust have been hard to let go...
Thank you!
Car looks super clean, interior and exterior including the engine, need some advice hit me back up if u don't mind
Absolutely, just ask. Happy to help
Can you tell me how do I lower it just good enough liKe this? What do I need?
Nice mods, man! May I ask you What trim is this, premium or sport?
does this have the DAS system?
And what is that device on the drivers floor?
Hoping to get one myself
Thank you! This is a 2014 sport, no extra packages. That is a pedal commander, helps with the pedal response.
Where can I find the long tube cold air intakes for the VQ Q50?
Those wheels😮
Wow beautiful car man sad to see her go🥲
Thank you, I'll miss it for sure
whats the suspension name u have on this, your fitment is 100% clean
WHAT WHEELS ARE THOSE!?! 😍😍😍 is your car lowered?
hey love this build i just got my q50,could you possibly add some links to the mods you made so i can purchase them
Ill work on that
Gud info
Where did u get the steering wheel?
Super clean q just got my black opal rs whats the fitment measurmenets for the lowering. Super Clean!!
thank you! i think you have to play around with the setting. i lowered this one about 3-3.5 all around
Dam man I wish I could have this car one day
You can , even a better one.
Work hard , visualize it !!! 😅
Next thing you know , you’ll be driving it !
cheeped out on the rotors did yah!! Wing looks great accept the double-sided tape that is visible.
The front rotors are 2 piece stop tech drilled rotors, they were about $800 just for the front, rears are drilled only. This car doesn't need 2 piece in the rear, overkill. there is no 3m tape showing, might be some dirt or residue from parking outside.

great video want one lol
Not sure if you’ll still reply to my comment but I just wanted to ask, I currently I have an Is350 with 180k miles and I love that car a tone BUT whenever it is time to upgrade I wouldn’t be opposed to owning an Infiniti. The main things that I look for are reliability and maintenance costs. I am the type to do cross road trips and if I was to get one I’d be using it quite often for that, what would be your opinion on that? Also, with maintenance how was your experience with maintenance costs?
Thanks for watching, for road trips and high miles I would probably keep it stock, will be far more reliable. This car was more of a toy. If I was you I would keep the Lexus, or get something more comfortable, there is not very good rear leg room and trunk space it's pretty useless. Seats don't even fold down. It's a good car but there are far better options, the 3.7 will be more expensive on gas, the 3.0 will be more efficient and faster but those turbos have a lot of issues.
where is all the carbon aero from?
Can you link of the mods? Particularly the steering wheel, side skirts, and splitter? Looks awesome! Any issues with the +30 wheel offset? Maybe the awd system wont like it?
Oh man it's been so long i don't even remember some where i got some of the parts. Here is the link for the splitter: bodykitworld.com/product/extreme-online-store-2014-2017-infiniti-q50-sport-carbon-fiber-front-splitter/?Google+Shopping&+CTX&+BKW+Smart&hsa_acc=2664643947&hsa_cam=17171037531&hsa_grp=144929442668&hsa_ad=596666965097&hsa_src=u&hsa_tgt=pla-1014917834051&hsa_kw=&hsa_mt=&hsa_net=adwords&hsa_ver=3&gclid=Cj0KCQjw08aYBhDlARIsAA_gb0ejqi5DD6pzoYgigGIiJe4O-osJta4029fk2M5UfpRdCwDPwPgMPwAaAlNiEALw_wcB
This one is RWD so no issues here. The car doesn't have side skirts, just the OEM mud flaps. The steering wheel of some guy on IG.
Ok baby in the way🙏🏻
dont tell me you getting a camry ?
Haha no, we are actually going full electric, I'm getting a polestar in Feb,
Thing is infinit could refined this engine and got high 340s hp and 280 torque or even more that’s minimum the 3.0t blends in with the crowd
Very nice and clean mods! Mind sharing the wheel and tire specs?
19x10 square 265/35/19
@@rizocars6115how was the ride quality when driving.. was it bumpy?
What model year is this one?
I would keep it.. but.. in the end. You know how life works. N i know you can't simply ignored or forget it easily. It's more like you loose some parts of your heart. Sad indeed..
I would have kept it, but i don't have the space and i could use the money, the new car is expensive. Thank you for watching
Which is the offset of wheels?
beautiful car what year is the car getting one soon
This one is a 2014
👍sagol bratishka
Did you buy new or used? And did you ever have to replace a turbo. Current on the market Idk if I want a 3.7 or 3T
His is a 3.7 and they’re more reliable but have known issues with the trans and the 3.0t is good for modifying but also has some issues some being turbo. Both fairly reliable and fast.
Can you do any of these mods with the 2.0 I4? I don’t want to make it fast or anything cause I know it’s not haha. I just really want to make it look clean and sound nice but most people have the 3.0 and 3.7.
You can do a lot to the 2.0 for sure. I wouldn't do anything for performance, it won't sound nice doesn't matter what you do. A nice clean stance with good wheels and you got yourself a nice car
How is the wheel fit
The Q looks great. What is the offset and brand of the wheels,looks perfect. Sorry your selling it.
Thank you! 19x10 square. +30 variant wheels, cold forged
What year was the car ?
How much spent on mods?
what specific color is this?
What wheels are those man I want them on mine I have a 2019 q50 3.0 sport very clean q50
I said it in the video and i responded comments already with all the specs. Thanks for watching
Rizo & Cats !
Beautiful, how much did you sell for ?
Thanks, 20k
Hello what year is this
3.7 though jeez!!
where did you get those red seatbelts ?
A local custom shop did it for me.
Where you get that coolant reservoir tank?😭
here is the link, please like the video if you found anything of value.

What year is the car
Imma drive mine till the wheels fall off.
At that point I should have enough saved up to afford a 50K car. I got mine for 24K in 2018.
Wow that's crazy i got mine in 2018 for 24k 😂😂😂 what are the odds??. But yeah if it wasn't because of the baby i would have kept it. I can't keep that many cars
whats the wheels
Can you tell me where to buy the grill net? This is Korea. Please send me a link I beg you
Is no longer available but you can get it from Ali express. Just search for Q50 emblem less grill
@@rizocars6115 Thank you!
What offset are the wheels. Fitment looks good!
Thanks 🙏, +30 all around.
@@rizocars6115 The jdm headlights look good as well. Was trying to find out where to get them if you don't mind sharing?
What year is this car?
Not sure if this has been said/asked or not, too many comments and not going through each to read them. Where did you get your numbers? I have a 2015 Sport. I'm 329 to the wheel which is roughly 387 crank and I've done far less mods than you have done. You say you have 325, there is no way you have 400 crank. Aside from that, very pretty. Where did you get your seatbelts?
You are the second person that pointed that out so I'll go ahead and say i was wrong, i was going based on 20-25% more, that's what I heard before. And yeah, I've seen people with far less mods making more power, these cars are different, they make what they want to make.
The seat belts were installed by a local shop, I'm super happy with that mod, definitely makes the dated interior more interesting imo
@@rizocars6115 Totally agree. Anything different inside makes it pop!
what wheels are those? looking to get something exactly like that
Variant Wheels cold forged
What year is this ?
Mod list ?
running on springs/coilovers or stock suspension?
bc coils
Bro that Q is clean. Know u miss it. Fitment is 🤌.
Thanks , i put a lot of work and late night wrenching into this thing
How did you get the newer shift knobs to fit ?
They are a direct fit, no modifications required, there is other you tube videos explaining how to do it.
@@rizocars6115 okay thank you very much
did u rub on ur tires and what’s ur offset ?
No rub, +30
1:00 “look at that fitment” *moans*
❤️👍
what lip do u have
Thinking of trading my Camaro SS for one of these….
what wheels were they? spec, diameter, width, offset?
i talked about that in the video, 19x10 +30
what year is this clean car btw
2014
Have you got a link for the wheels mate? They really nice.
Thanks, just go to variant wheels.com they have other models too
what are those wheels my goodness they are so nice!!!
