This may seem like a dumb post to some but I would like to hear from everyone, what tools are in your essencial G35 tool kits. Please include tool type, brand, price, and use if you can.

 

I have one tool.

Infiniti Warranty.

 

LMAO sweet answer

think we all got the right tool

but all honesty, i hide away a visa card in my G just incase something happens.

 

I usually keep a 3/8" ratchet with sockets and an extension, four screwdrivers (2 philips, 2 flat different lengths), reversible ratcheting wrenches, a small set of 3 pliers, and a 1/2" torque wrench with a socket big enough for the lugnuts.

 

i'd like to add..

breaker bar
craftsman mechanic's toolset (friends gave it to me as a gift for my bday for wrenching on their cars!)

shop light w/ hooks

flat head jack stands
floor jack with rubber mount

... few other tools..

most importantly

the service manual. Here's one for the 2005 G35 Sedan

 

Also:

- Pry bars (craftsman, matco, snap-on, etc)
- Small pick set (ditto)
- Skew driver kit (it is a 90 degree right-angle drill adapter that has saved my life at countless times) you can get these from crutchfield, I got mine when I was a car audio installer from one of our vendors.
- Good wire strippers and crimpers like T&B or Snap-on.

 

eugene, thanks for the link. i wonder how much is in common with the '06 sedan. dunno if you remember me, i was the guy who organized that red robin meet in san mateo in january. i had the loaner sedan

are you coming to the meet on april 1? i want to hear/feel that 2nd gen stillen you've got

 

I'm not sure... been putting too many miles on my sedan.. I'll think about it

 

Are we talking about in the car? Or stuff at home included?

- 3/8 socket or wrench is a must have

 

cell phone = roadside = infiniti warr.

 

Do our cars require any TORX set? I just purchased some not to long ago specifically for my german cars. Now that I got rid of both, I hope I didn't put my money down the drain on a them.

Things that I always have in the car:

3/8 rachet
3/8 to 1/4 converter
sockets 6-18mm
extenders up to 12"
two different size wrenches
4 screw drivers (two different size flatheads and phillips)
flashlight (the bmw has one in the glove box that recharges when you place it back into its location, wish Infiniti did the same)
allen set
breaker bar

Everything fits into one neat little box stowed away in the trunk.

 

I know this is the sedan section, but any chance you have the either 05 or 06 coupe service manual (6MT if possible)?

 

Don't know about 06 or 05 coupe manual.. you can purchase it on ebay I think...

for an alternative, there is an 03 or 04 manual posted here.

 

pc!!

 

small ratchet w/ 10mm socket... sits in the glove box - it's all I need.
