New to me 2006 g35 sedan manual trans

It's of all if like to say thank you for this huge data base of info. I've been looking at g cars for years and finally pulled the trigger. This was by no means easy to get either so far. I'll start from when I purchased it last week. I drove about 1.5 hours to look at this car from Tucson to Phoenix it looked very good and had low miles from what I've seen. I decided to get it but it did have a tire light on so I told the dealership to fix the tire before I headed back to Tucson. After signing all the paperwork they came back and told me it's got a nail in the sidewall and cannot be fixed, also they can't find that particular tire in stock anywhere. They decided to put 2 new Yokohama tires on for me. I was happy they did the right thing and also keep in mind I'm a tech working at a Nissan dealership on Tucson. I didn't have much time to get back home as I was supposed to go to the dr with my wife (she was upset at this point but unfortunately i was stuck waiting for the tires). Finally after 2 hours of waiting I got my car back and was excited to get on the road back home. I made it about 20 miles then the clutch pedal started not to come back up all the way. In my head I was like great this clutch is gonna go out. I called the dealership back told them I was turning around and they needed to fix this. They said absolutely and come back we will fix it. I turned around and barely made one exit before the car started stalling out on me and the check engine light came back on. All I could do was laugh at this point cause everything that could have gone wrong did. I waited another 2 hours till a tow truck came and picked me up. After that it was like pulling teeth to get any info from that dealer. They took it to their local Nissan dealer and the stalling issue ended up being the crank sensor which they fixed. Then the car was towed to aamco for the clutch. Finally got a call from back from the dealership after 6 days of leaving messages saying the car is getting fixed but they were upset cause there bills for the car were close to $3000 so far. I told them it's not my fault your techs didn't drive the vehicle enough of check it out thoroughly enough. In the meantime I made sure aamco used appropriate parts for the clutch and finally got it back after 8 days. I've spent the last 2 days running the car through all the tests I put the used cars through at work and I'm finally happy with it. I know it's a long story so far but I really am happy with it now. I can't wait to start modding it. This was my wife's car and the new g after we picked it back up from Phoenix the last time. Hope you guys like it.
