Welcome to driver....=)

Power chips and Intakes have little or no effect on HP especially bone stock. Since you have an '04 the best bang for your buck is a MotorDyne 5/16" spacer, that particular size will allow you to keep your OEM engine cover. After the spacer's on now you can add the intake/z-tube and exhaust for more HP. Any thing like power chips should be installed when you get a "tune" after all the other mods have been installed!

For the spacer-

check http://www.motordyneengineering.com/G35.php for info.

Riverside infiniti has better prices tho; look em up on ebay. I paid 220 for the iso-thermal I think... easy DIY too.

Alignment issues, is your G lowered? If not a 4 wheel alignment should handle your is alignment problems. MotorDyne spacer....Tony and company are 2 miles from my front door 661-993-5111. Their 5/16" spacer comes with everything you'll need to install incl. specific instructions....you will need a torq wrench.
