Just wanted to introduce myself to everyone here at G35Driver.
My name is Shayne, I'm from Methuen (north of Boston).
I'm 19 and own a Stock 2004 G35 coupe 6MT Twilight Blue about to hit 100k.

I've been browsing this forum for a few years now trying to learn all there is to know.

All I've done to the car so far is Tinted the windows, Plastidipped the grill and wheels, debadged the trunk, and put some subs in my trunk that barely fit
Other than the DIY mods its bone stock and I plan to do a few things to this car in the near future.

This is my 2nd car and I'm a young dumb kid so I had a couple questions not sure if this is the right thread and I wanted to post a few pictures of how it
looked at the dealer and the changes I've made so far. So if someone can direct me to the right thread I'd appreciate it.

Thanks guys,
Shayne.

 

This is the right thread to ask questions. So far your g looks good. Whats next and what is your question?

 

Nice ride, there is a thread for ma people, check it out. We have a bunch of meets

 

Thanks guys.

I was looking into lowering the car and a few friends convinced me to
get Function & Forms but I was hearing a few clicks on the front of the car
wasnt too sure if it was bushings or something in that area. My question is
what should I replace since its about to hit 100k? ls it best to bring it to a certified
infiniti or nissan dealer to get a full service tune up or ask them to replace
a few things. I just want this car running as smooth as possible.

I also read about the oil consumption and was worried that I might be burning oil.
Is there something specific I can do to avoid burning oil or is that just something
I'll have to deal with for this engine?

And I checked the regional forums for the locals in MA but not many people
posted there recently. Maybe i'm looking at the wrong place but i'd definitely
be interested in going to one of the meets.

 

welcome to the forums? looks like a good starting base and i love that color! i haven't had an problems with my 04 consuming oil though im still about 30k miles behind you.

 

Welcome, m*******!

 

I made an appointment with the dealer, hopefully they dont rape my wallet.

 

They might

 

What dealer? Kelly in Danvers has been pretty good.

 

I brought it to Nashua for a diagnostic in november. It was around $140 for that.
I was thinking of maybe just going to a Nissan dealer since its closer but I dont know
if they'll have the same service/parts.
