however i have a friend, sort of a toyota fanboy(5 celicas, 3 corollas, mr2 turbo, mr2 spyder) he bought an 04 g35 6 mt and it was kind of a lemon (wouldnt go into 2nd in winter, rear defrost interfered with the radio and some other stuff that slips my mind, he ended up going back to a celica gt-s and then into a tsx and he likes the tsx more, but he does have a 12 second mr2 turbo if he wants to go fast i guess...idk hopefully i will fair better, this car looks really clean and had a great carfax. the only thing that bugs me is there was some oil residue on the solenoid in front of the dip stick and the previous owner debaged the "G35" letters and stuck just the "G" on the fender by the drivers side door, but hey my rsx had a panda sticker on the winder..lol, whoever picks that car up is getting a very nice greddy sp2 catback, rbc intake manifold(from 06+ civic si's, good for like 10-15whp with a tune), full innovative motor mounts and recently overhauled tein ss-p's....also a .5-1qt per 1000 mile oil consumption issue..lol, but its been like that since it was new

keep on top of the tranny issue. you still have 3k left of powertrain warranty. if you notice any rough shifting or related issues take the car in immediately. i'm on my 2nd tranny (under warranty) after occasional rough 1-2 shifts. if you don't have any problem then great, but you don't want to be stuck with a rugh tranny after the 70k mark when you're out of warranty.

i added 2 year/24k extended warranty so im covered until 91k bumper to bumper with roadside assitance, i always end up breaking trannies anyway...acura rebuilt my tranny 3 times(don't ask, but the third time it was their fault for not adjusting the clutch right...of course i should have noticed), my gt-s also had 2nd gear syncro issues.

i know they are wider then I would want ideally for snow, but my bro happens to have a set of barely used blizzacks I was really just wondering how changing the height would effect vehicle dynamic control or w/e because I read that different height tires mess that up.
As long as all 4 tires are the same size, then you won't have a prob.
Only issue will be your speedo will be off. With the shorter tire, you will be going slower than your speedo reads. With that size, when you are going 60MPH according to your speedo, you will be really doing 58.5MPH. Not a big difference really, but just something to be aware of
