Hey guys I just bought the German Castrol 0W30 oil. On my way to go get a filter and a few more things for the car. Here is my question I heard a lot of people say K&N HP-1010 the Oil filter for a Maxima and M35s fits the G35 coupes. Will the oil change people have a problem fitting it? I know I would love to do it myself but I don't really have a place to do it at. And I wanted to know what else would you guys recommend to change on my new car it's a 2007 G35 coupe 6MT it is in the dealer for tans fluid flush and the window motors. I was thinking about changing the spark-plugs maybe? and some other things you guys think I should do?


Thank you could you guys please list what I should change please. I will post some pics as soon as I get the car back today or Monday? Oh BTW the car is getting the HKS (replica) exhaust next week

Knowing how many miles your car has would help.

Oooops it is right at 43K

It wasnt quite clear from your post. But if you haven't done so, consider a transmission and differential change as well.

Maxima-size filter is not a problem on our cars, that's what I run.

What would you recommend? What companies are good? And is it easy to do or would I need to take it to a shop?

Motul and Amsoil are popular products. Well, if you're not changing your own oil, I doubt you'll want to change your own trans/diff fluid.

If the maxima is the same filter as the M45, you need .25 quarts of extra fluid to bring the level up to H on the dipstick.
