NM, I thought you previously said they will not downshift at all but I misread it.

It will get you close to changing the light bulb.

here's a diagram to show approximate location of bulb.

Thanks for all the help. I pulled the offending (and blackened) bulb out last night, ran to the local parts store, and they had a two pack of them for $4.50. Problem solved!

I'm sure there are subtle differences in the factory tune, imo they drive differently.
And thats why I bought an 05!

Once you tune these cars they are pretty much the same, but the older one are about 200 pounds lighter than the 05.

Yes, revup is only for 05+ 6MT models and yes, all non-revup motors between 03-06 are the same.
Good to know my '04 G35 sedan actually has 282hp with 269tq and not 261hp with 258tq. Now my friend who recently bought an '06 G35x sedan can shut the f*** up because his car isn't faster lol

Question 1. Is it okay to skip gears? Im finding 3rd gear to be a waste.. atleast when I go into grandma mode.. im trying to see how much better gas mileage I can get by not having so much of a lead foot and keeping my rpms lower then what I normal keep them at (shift at 3k).

Question 2. Does any else shock themselves when they get out of there car and shut the door?

Yes you are correct it is the rugs. Infiniti designed these vehicles to never be exited and installed rugs which generate static electricity that will shock the driver upon touching the door when exiting. This in turn will make the driver think twice about exiting this beautifully crafted machine.

hahaha nah IDK I'm just joking but that would be a funny theory though!!
