Whichever is the highest octane, which would be super.

Good luck and enjoy!

I heard anything less than 93 octane (93 is super/premium) will be bad for our engines.. so I'd live by it..

Also I believe a 2004.5 is a G35 that was manufactured in the 2nd half of 2004 .. so I guess anytime after June? Correct me if I'm wrong here..

I think if you have an '05 model it's probably manufactured in Jan. '05 or later.. I'm not 100% sure but I know that my coupe which is being shipped here within the next few weeks has a manufacture date of Jan. 2005.

Oh and I read the other forum..91 octane is best for our G's

2004.5 is different than 2005MY. and Yes, use at least 91 octane, 93 if they have it in your state.

Play on Player. You got an '05. 2004.5 had some slight differences than the earlier 2004's I believe which is the reason for the distinction. But you have an '05 so you got the latest and greatest. Enjoy and always use 91+ - 93 Octane if you can.
