Yes but remember it is NOT a 100% bolt on swap.

If it looks like the 2007 I've posted and if you are able to swap the flange and the dust cover and cut the pinion shaft, YES it will fit 100%.

The only special tools I needed were a puller for the flange and an angle grinder with a cutting wheel.

It's currently installed under my 2003 G35 5AT. I will take pictures tonight since my car is in the garage.

Yes pretty common. To my knowledge, all shops would have those tools on hand.

Let us all know how it drives as far as accel, mpg and cruise control. For me, 3.3 to a 3.7 is a 11% gear difference.

Yeah probably can work something. I often goes to "Pont-Rouge" drag strip and I might also go to some events near Laval.

To find one I'm not sure, since you're in a big city call a couple junkyards and probably that you'll be lucky. I've found mine on "Lespac.com" in Sherbrooke. I recently saw a 370Z complete for parts but I'm not sure if the seller want to part out. In the past I also saw 3.5 from a manual but not sure if that's what you looking for.

Yes sure I will but only in a couple months. I will even go to the drag strip. Maybe SDGenius will come back with feedbacks before me though.

I will also check for the CC cause it may still works on speed below 80mph according to what I've read.

I can also give you my MPG but I did not record it before the swap, so it may be of no great value since each car/driver is different.
