Engine Air Filter- I generally use Wix Paper Filters, or Napa Gold(Which is also Wix)
How many Miles on the G? How are you calculating your MPG? City Driving?
Try resetting your ECU and have it relearn, all you need to do is unplug the negative terminal on your battery wait 30min or so and plug it back, your odometer should go blank and you will loose your radio presets.
5W-30 any brand, though I prefer castrol, for oil filter avoid fram, purolator makes cheaper filters which are around the same price as fram and are much better in quality

& I hit 140K . And I used the navi thing to tell me my mpg which I know is incorrect. I Ran to E & put gas in there then drove like a grandma and still got bad mileage -___-..But I do sometimes let my brother drive & he is a speed-a-holic soo thats probably where its coming from.
Radio/Center console faceplate
I have a 2006 G35 and I was wondering if anyone had any tips on how to remove the brushed aluminum faceplate the goes over all of the controls on radio and center console? Mine is scratched up and I wanted to refinish it to make it look better.
If you don't mind could you provide links to the products?

oil and air filter will not make much difference. If your getting 14mpg, you might need to change the driver.
If your car was poorly maintained and you changed everything to help MPG, you might see +1 mpg after all said and done. Thats filters,oil, tire pressure, cleaning out the trunk and other stuff. But changing your driving style/pattern can net you better MPG.

If you are at 140k, did you do your spark plugs yet? Are you driving a lot of city?

I haven't changed my spark plugs yet. I need to check into that. I don't know if the old owner did either
quick question...
Is the hr y-pipe from a v36 sedan the same as the hr-y from a Z??
I found one from a v36 sedan, and want to know if its the same weight and fit as the Z hr-y

Should be the same
spark plugs were due at 105k i think. Pull one of the plugs off and judge from that. Most likely unless it was dealer service up to the point you owned it, its still original plugs.
You navi screen MPG is a little off. I manually calculated mines and it was LOWER then MPG screen. Its obviously to see why they would want to error to go OVER then under actual MPG. All cars are off by a little bit, but it does give you a good ballpark.
This might seem like a really stupid question but I need to know. I have an 06 auto Coupe that I bought a few months ago. How do i know if its the sport or base version. Im guessing base since its an auto but I want to know for sure. Again sorry if this was a stupid question...

I believe sport adds spoiler, front bumper, skirts, springs.
Don't know if it was available on automatics, but I don't see why not.
Not a stupid question. At least you didn't go out and start a whole new thread about it. =)

The 05 sports sedan sports package does come with 18s. Anything less and it probably not the sports package. They are a split 5-spoke design with an Infiniti center cap. The 17's are a 7 spoke design. Also, the sports package brings a sports suspension. Make sure your shock absorbers are a red in color. Sorry, I don't have any pics right now to post.
Yes, the sport suspension brings red shocks and struts. Look for the red shocks/struts, 18 inch split 5 spoke wheels, and another clue, it better have the aluminum trim on the inside. The sport package can't be had with wood. I would say almost everyone has the alum. trim, but thought I'd mention that just in case. If you see wood, it surely didn't come from the factory with the sport package.
