Hey guys, I just got my first G35. 2004 coupe 6MT Black/Tan 21k miles. Been searching for almost 2 months, but finally got one in great condition for a great price! I'll post pics soon.

1st question - I need to change the oil, should I switch to synthetic? if so, what brand?

2nd question - What are some of the best sites for aftermarket parts/accessories?

Thanks !

Ryan

Just going to suggest based on the opinions of many others.......Royal Purple. I too am in the market of new or maybe pre-owned, mind if I ask how much that set you back?

Northshore is right! One of our mods (Joe603) swears by Royal Purple.

As for where to get mods... go to everythingg35.com and ask for Joe (not the Joe603 btw)... tell him NICO sent ya!

Ok thanks. I got a great price. $21,500.

Do you recommend 10w 30?

How about filters, any brand better?

Thanks guys

everyone has their own opinion on which one is best... i have the aem brand... my advise is to get whatever your pocket can afford... paid almost $250 for mine....they are all the same anyways from a certain stand point.... congrats on your purchase

I mentioned it another thread...I use 10w-40 Royal Purple. Great stuff, the G loves it!! You can get it at summit racing...luckily there is a warehouse about 10 min from my house.
