They have normal maintenance costs, but there are a few things to watch out for. I suggest searching the forums for some threads on these issues.

Terrible gas mileage? Wait til you drive a truck... what a terrible mistake I made. LOL I miss my G!

 

^well trucks are still way worse but it's to be expected. The g has pretty bad mileage for a car, especially if you have a lead foot like I do.

 

What should I look for when buying one of these?

 

has anyone seen the deerbra? and on a car note I'm looking to get 20's on the G but not sure what suspension kit would fit those any advice?

 

Correct.
From the standpoint of logic and practicality, there's no reason to buy the coupe...
...by the same token, if you boiled it down using nothing but logic and practicality, you wouldn't buy a G LOL!

Also correct

...eeehh... mostly.

Yes (for a Japanese car)

I just googled that....... whyyyyyyy???

 

they'll get you around they will just annoy you with broken window motors and funny sounds while they do it.

 

anyone know from past experience how much the bank sensors are and how hard it is to change them? both bank 1 and bank 2 are throwing codes... but other than that my 03 G is running strong.

 

I got mine from the nissan delearship for $90 each. I actuallly told them what i would pay for them and they agreed. The passenger side is easy to access but it took me like an hour and a half to undue the harness clip! I finally was able to remove the sensor from the block with the harness still attached and release it that way. Still havent installed the driver side because changing the passenger fixed my issue. Ill put that one in when Im ready to clean the TB and put in new plugs.

 

B1 passenger side, B2 driver side

 

I went to Nissan guy told me it would be like 80 a piece and if I wanted them to install them for me it would be like 220 total for parts and labor..is that a good deal cuz im more of a do it myself person but im new to this motor and the world of G, so not sure if I should pay the extra to have them do it...

 

$80 a piece is a good deal. As i said, i talked them down to $90 when they were asking for like $115 per. Honestly, I'd pay the $220 for parts and labor just because I havent had the time to do my own work as I used to.

 

ok perfect I was thinking of just tacking it to them since I barley have time anymore on the weekends to work on stuff...ima take it this weekend to have it done thanks for the advice GreenPenguin

 

I had to place a sticker over a one inch chip on my car. Just wanted to know what others thoughts on this are lol. I really had no choice the chip was only getting bigger because the owner before me didn't paint the car right. The sticker is only there temporarily until I can afford a nice paint job lol
