Anybody have the following maintenance done and if so, any idea what you paid for it?
-Oil Filter Replacement
-In-cabin microfiilter replacement
-Brake Lines/Cables
-Brake Pads & Discs
-Automatic Transmission Fluid
-Exhaust
-Steering Gear & Linkage
Also, the backlight on my clock no longer works. What are the chances that it's a fuse?
Any insight is greatly appreciated!!!

I havent done the 75k yet, but the oil filter is just part of any oil change. Anytime your oil is changed, the filter is changed with it.
The in-cabin microfilter is easy, and I'm pretty sure there is a diy on this forum somewhere. Save the money. I think the filter costs 30 bucks or something like that.
As for the breaks, unless yours are worn down, I don't see why you'd have to change them at 75k. Same deal for the exhaust, brake lines, and the steering gear & linkage.
As for the ATF, I think that would run like $150 or something like that. Nissan suggests that you use their J-matic fluid only.

G35 sedan w/ too much money in mods
I just turned 47,000 miles and looked up the DIY on the cabin filter replacement. (Thanks bythabay) Mind you I'm no technical genius when it comes to working on cars, but it took me all of 15 minutes and $16 to do the job. I have seen on this board that the dealer will charge up to $120 just to change this filter.
If you're unsure you can do it, Pep Boys quoted me $15 labor to install the filter in addition to the cost of the filter itself.
Good luck with your other questions. I'm struggling whether or not I want the dealer to do all of my oil changes. I had a small oil leak under the car when I bought it a few weeks ago and it turned out to be the seal between the filter and the oil cooler. Whoever had owned the car previously didn't take it to a place that knew what they were doing in changing the oil, and tightened the filter too tight which in turn ruined the gasket. Fortunately, the powertrain warranty covered it and I got it fixed (and an oil change to boot) for free. I also got to drive an 07 sedan for the day =)
