Nevertheless I still prefer MORE steering feel in my GSF when driving really fast.
But one thing I'm sure is "GSF steering is more accurate and better". It's just a little bit light for my taste...

Here I would like to share my story from my wife colleague. My wife colleague just bought two identical E300 for her husband and herself one years ago. Guess what? Every time they have a long trip, they just rent another Mercedes. You know why? Because they already knew "long trips will kill their new Mercedes"... (But not for my Toyota
)My old G suspension is quite stiff. Now its Bilstein shocks are FULL stiff. (last week I just turned 1 more click to FULL STIFF) I think those European performance shocks are very fun but they only last for three years. (They don't leak oil but just their damping performance degrade a lot every year!!!)
I think GSF is very good. Just my old G is too good to be true... (I think most of people will NOT believe that my OLD G is almost as fun as my GSF!!!) I also don't expect my OLD G can be that good.
Before I planed to sell it when it's 10 year old because it's just a cheap used car and I also always drove it FAST!!!
GSF steering is light but it provides more solid, stable, clear messages(weighted feel).
In my G35S the steering is heavy but it delivers less solid, clear, sometimes fake messages(weighted feel).
I think GSF unit body is VERY STIFF and much stiffer than my old G. (Of course G is very old now and much cheaper even when new!)
GSF : Like use "thick wood stick" to stir a mud.
G35S : Like use "thin plastic ruler" to stir a mud.
I had tested Altima and Muraro about 7 years ago, their steering feels were totally different from my G's but Maxima did have similar steering feeling as my G.
No sure about recent Altimas and Muraros? I have to test them to find out...
I really think my G and M's brakes are still good. Right. My GSF's brake is better but not much. Considering GSF's Brembo 6/4 big brakes, I'm a little bit disappointed. I think GSF's big brake should be very good on track. (You can use it again and again without over heat)
96-0 brake test from Motortrend:
GT-R 100 feet
GSF 105 feet
G35S 110 feet
M35X 115 feet
FX35 127 feet
But in daily drive the brake distance is more important. Based on the above test results GSF brake is not much better. I agree. Based on my 1.5 year and 15k km ownership with GSF, I think GSF brake is not that good as its look.
Guess what? It's "ENGINE SOUND" I think. Every time I past a slow car, the whole process totally becomes a joy. Its handling is very good but its engine sound is so much better than my old G and M... (VQ35HR engine also sounds good but I have to admit Yamaha V8 engine sounds so much better and better than GT-R...
)G/M : sound good
GSF : sound wonderful
