147,000 on my 2003. Only unexpected problem so far is the front wheel bearings had to be replaced.
Clutch is still good but I have put $ aside for it.
Uses about a half Liter between oil changes (6000K)

130k pretty soon for me. hahah i guess we have the same issue. I m glad I m not the only one. Man let me know when you going to get your double din. Or maybe I should just go to a mom and pop shop to get one install.

I just got my g35 lower. Looks so clean now.

My '92 Q45 doesn't burn oil as long as I use 10W-30 synthetic or syn blend. Burns a little 5W-30 conventional oil (what dealer uses). I don't think you have anything to worry about.

I heard a louder than normal tapping. After that I checked the oil and it was about 3qt low, so I added oil and she started to smoke pretty bad. Had a leak down test done, and 3 cylinders were shot.

I know your post is old, but since then gas prices have skyrocketed despite the recent relief. Are you still driving everyday and as often as you used to? I would imagine that it'd be difficult to keep up with the rising cost of gas unless you're loaded. I get out about once or twice a week.

Just bought it a couple weeks ago, only problem I've noticed is when you turn sharply really slow (neighborhood driving) it makes a little chirping sound. I think they rotated the rotors and put new pads on before I bought it so it might just be that. I think I'm just going to wait a little bit longer and hope it goes away

On that note, if it is that what kind of time frame would I be looking at until they wear in?
