I am LOL'ing.
The is very little info out there for these cars. The Q45 forum on NICO doesn't have much (if anything.)
Have you tracked down a rear window? What's that gonna cost?
Motor Week says:
0-60mph: 6.6 sec
1/4 mile: 15.8
Base price was $51K

I'm pretty sure it would be faster on 22"s

It's just money... You will definitely see a set of wheels in the classifieds next week.
The front is 198, the rear is 700 ish. Who needs windows?
03 INFINITI Q45 PARTING OUT $1 - $1 http://columbus.craigslist.org/pts/5239002441.html
Why is Columbus so far away? I plan to bring the Q45 next year. The limited aftermarket will make it tough.
I'm just over two hours from Columbus and the board also has a lot of people on the ground more directly in Columbus.
We'll see how we can help.
I have most of the nitrous system installed. Will probably try to make a pass or two with a 100 shot. If that goes well we have jets for a 180 or 225. Only need to run under a 14.2 to beat the best LS400 time on drag times. Getting anything over a 13.5 would be disappointing to me at this point.
Have you gathered enough courage to install the shift kit?

I have found neither courage or time.
If you need a driver for that Q45, it turns out that I am pretty quick with them! 
What about a lexan rear window with some Nascar style reinforcing bars? Big back glass like that probably weighs a few pounds.
Do Mustang 17's fit that Q?
Yes, Mustang rims should fit the Q45.

Probably will use some ideas from the LS400 on the Q45 and take it just a "little" bit further because I have all year to work... I'll wait till the last minute anyways because I'm a procrastinator.
I think this was a mistake. Airbag light is on, power steering is gone, every body panel has a dent+, the wheels don't match, radio doesn't pick anything up, center console is ripped off, 5 tears in the seats, sunroof is stuck, broken lug studs, the suburban thinks its too heavy and that was the first twenty minutes with the car. LOL 22" with ?DUB edition" emblems.
Both headlights work, the backup camera works and no check engine light so far and it sounds BA.
Part it out. Use the drive line in a smaller nimbler chassis.
Now you are asking for me to come up with skills that just aren't there. I do have a spare miata or two sitting around. Better watch out I'll start dropping off old Challenge cars at your house, ask pimpm3 how that is working out.
If a 95 LS400 can lose 600 lbs how much can an 02 Q45?
...The last car he dropped off at my house is infested with ants and still doesn't run. Don't let him know where you live

02 q45 + sawsall = legendary
Mind my asking what you ended up paying for this thing?
My take is that you need to find a different shell, like a 240SX or a Miata, and get to swapping. Which I wouldn't want to deal with myself, so, good luck!

Well I won the auction for $825 but due to copart's fees I paid $1133. I could really go for a 240 but right now I have too many cars. A camaro, mustang, 2 miatas, ls400 and now the q45.

If only aftermarket suspension was available.
Leave it as-is. Aristocrats do not take their clothes off to go faster. How unbecoming, Mr. DatsunS130.

You took off 600 lbs?!?! Man, I need to get cracking on the diet front!
LS400 and now a Q45, this is getting pretty highfalutin.
