just got it

Hey guys,
I'm new here. I just got my 04 G35 sedan. I know nothing about this car other then all its cool little tricks and what not from driving it. I just picked it up yesterday. I was wondering if you all could point me in the right direction for maintenance and some things to watch out for. Thanks guys and here are some pics for you all so enjoy. So far it is an amazing car.

there are a couple of rattles that are notorious with the g's... even the new ones. First thing to do is suspension. Sway bars are the best bang for buck for the g

Thanks for the welcome guys.

-I do have a warranty I bought that 3 year Lexus warranty which is amazing but I was talking like small stuff that I have to do to it at home.

-Yea I use to live in STL but currently live in Jeff Co right now but soon to move back.

-Also, Do I have to run premium, will it hurt it if I run something lower for just normal driving?

friend of mine who works at Nissan(mechanic), told me it is alright to run 89. said most car is made to run 89 octane to begin with, the ECU will adjust.
I have personally ran 87 and 89 before, I don't notice any nocking or anything.
maybe some of the G member will chime in and give you their perspective.

I'll keep it clean for sure. I finally ran out of the complementary tank the dealership gave to me and filled up...12 gallons for 50 bucks. Can't complain I was getting 11 in my truck and paying near 80 bucks for regular to fill it ha.
