CRANKshaft position sensor location (NOT Camshaft)

Hey guys! I have found a BILLION posts and threads on the Camshaft Position sensors, their locations, DIY's etc. But I can't find anything on the CRANKSHAFT position sensor location when I do a search. I've replaced the two Cam sensors and want to do the Crank now. In the past, I think I've read about it being on the bottom between the engine and transmission. Is that true? If so, can it be reached with/without jacking the car? Or is this the one out of the 3 that I HAVE to take to the dealership? Thanks guys! You really can't put a monetary value on membership here...

Car = 2003 G35 Coupe

under the car between the engine/trans on the driver side. easy to change out. you can jack up the driver side of the car and get to it from behind the front wheel.

you will be spending around 60-75.00 for the sensor if I remember correctly...trying to recall since I bought all the sensors for my G and my moms altima which are pretty much the samething and walked out around 250.00 Thats with my cost pricing as a dealer

you cant buy these sensors at Autozone if I remember correctly. Buy the oem setup and call it a day or you will be replacing them again I can guarantee that.
