Huh, interesting. First time I'd seen that. Fel-pro had a gasket available for it, so that's what I went ahead and used. Should hold up alright.

Quote: I just picked up my new 04 sedan a couple weeks ago for $6500. It has 135k so I'm gonna be doing a bunch of checking on fluids and belts as soon as it warms up, but I think I got a great deal! Books in @ just over 11k. I think you did we'll op. good luck.
Im in GA you paid exactly what I did. $6,500 134K but it's an 03. Has paint issue and CD player was broken but both things I can work with.

What extensive knowledge? Open your gas door BOOM right there for ya..lol premium gas written. Google does wonders for someone who only owned a particular car for a short time. Anyways it just pisses me off when people give opinions n there not accurate. I joined this site THINKING I could rely on what people said. I'm no pro but don't post answers unless ya know for sure.The search n using Google will tell you 99% about this car

Dude, read it again, "PREMIUM FUEL IS RECOMMENDED FOR MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE" and if you bother to read your owners manual it says "Use unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87AKI .... For improved vehicle performance INFINITI recommends the use of unleaded premium gasoline ....." SO all this **** your writing and guess what.......You got it wrong. Owners manual beats google 100% of the time.

Where did you get it through? Id like to use one on mine, the silicone isn't working for me. I might need a new pan though.

Thanks!

Quote: I should specify, this is true of my '03 model. I'm uncertain in the later years if they upped the output of the Sedan engine and thus the requirement for higher-octane gas.
Dude clearly, tactfully stated that this was his knowledge on his specific car, and he is 100% correct.


Quote: Well when I open the gas cap it say premium gas.
Quote: .
Wow...all this $hit u keep writing..lol I gave a simple answer. YES PREMIUM GAS..LOL
Quote: Lol..yes they did. Any Infiniti owner would know this. Stop posting b.s u know nothing about

You clearly proved yourself to be arrogant and ignorant, and funniest of all, trying to flame and attack the guy when all along, YOU ARE COMPLETELY WRONG.
There is only one version of the sedan that specifies Premuim fuel. That is the 05-06 6MT Rev-Up Engine. The rest run regular 87 gas.
Even the "premium" recommendation is only 89.

Google is a search tool, a resource. The information your receive from there can be taken with a very fine grain of salt. Most of the information that is actually proven and accurate isn't found easily on the internet when it comes to fine specifics.
Just because someone owns an Infiniti doens't mean a damn thing,
You don't know stuff until you know it, and clearly, you don't know much yourself


I'll end off this post, a self-enlightening one for you, I'm sure, with your very own words, directed right back at you:

O'Reilly for me. Probably available at most of your regular parts stores; AutoZone, Advance, etc. Probably some of the smaller chains like Olympus, whatever's around ya. I need to check up on how it's doing, been a couple weeks. I don't have a reliable in/lb. torque wrench so I used the ol' calibrated elbow and a cross-tightening sequence. The biggest pain of the whole thing was cleaning up all the RTV, but after about 20 mins with a razor blade I found a mild wire wheel and stuck it in the drill. Sped up the process a good bit.

Grats on the g35 I am also a fairly new member. The OP's deal on his car sounded good but reading through the thread am I the only one who thinks those prices are a bit high? I recently got a 05 g35 sedan 6mt with premium package sports suspension with 59k for a little under 11k. It did have a scratch across the rear quarter panel but I'm guessing it will only run me a little over a grand to fix. Anyways great pick up I hope you enjoy your g35 as much as I do mine.

Love this car
I bought my 2003 Sedan (aero pkg silver on black, 5AT) 3 months ago, and paid $8000 CAD. The car was a two-owner, no accidents, no rust, original paint car with 52,000 miles on it (83,000 km) and a clean Carfax.

Seat gear was chewed up (replaced) and I upgraded the stereo (I own an online car stereo business), bought a set of winter tires and rims, had it Rust-checked, and changed the oil and tranny fluid. Next will be diff fluid and fixing some scratches.

Overall, this is a great car- I should have bought one of these three cars ago...
