This question was asked and answered recently, do a search.

No surprise but the Brisbane dealers are bullshitting you, the truth is they don't want the hassle, so they lie. Screw them, go to: http://www.importmonster.com.au Import Monster will get the 2 x 4L cans of oil for less than half the price, you just have to wait 6 weeks.

The cool surface acts a heat sink for the battery which after a period determined by the ambient temperature will slow down the electrochemical reactions in the battery making them appear flat in the short term. Given a bit of time to warm up, they will recover. And I do have a battery on the concrete in my garage as we speak, always done it, never an issue. Are you religious?

Hahaha, thats the funniest thing I've heard for awhile, you obviously skipped science at school.

Its lowered with the exact same springs you have, I do scrape sometimes but you get good at recognising whats too high and what isn't.

Correct on the fronts, but for the rear, 19x9.5 +45. No lip rolling required, fits perfectly with 2 -3mm gap to spare. See my pics for proof

You're a member of this club and you say 'boring old 3.5L N/A'? Your reasoning, while entertaining, is way off the mark. Yes fuel consumption is no issue for me, however I choose cars based on designs I like such as the V35/V36. So if in the future I see a V8 I like, then I'll be in it, high fuel consumption or not. Anyway, whats the savings going to be if you choose a more fuel efficient car, $20 or $30 a week?

Who really cares about fuel consumption? Honestly, if you do, then go buy a Prius or better still, get a mountain bike. If you have to watch your fuel consumption, then either get a better paying job or stop fooling yourself by living beyond your means.

Well the springs were rated as 15% stiffer than stock and the tyres are obviously lower profile so there is some loss of smoothness/comfort on rough roads. This is offset by the handling being more responsive and 'sporty', and looking good of course.

I had 19s on mine, didn't have to roll and fenders or anything like that, simply put em on and they were the perfect offsets. I used King Springs from Fulcrum Suspensions for a 350z coupe, lowered the car around an inch which was enough to tuck the rear wheels inside the arch. The wheel specs were: Front 19" x 8.5" +38, Rear 19" x 9.5" +45, checkout the pics and you'll see how good it looks.

I'm working on the assumption that he would be buying from a car yard, this should be apparent based on the advice I gave. Having said that, your response is irrelevant. By the way, if you're going to be a smart ass online, perhaps you should at least start your sentences with capitals and spell correctly. Car yards that sell import vehicles source them from any number of different auction houses in Japan and an auction sheet is part of the procurement process. Of course they don't have a 'duty of disclosure', but an auction report is something I always ask for and 9 times out of 10 I get it.

The 370GT comes in Base model, Type P, Type S and Type SP. Only Type S and Type SP is available with the 6 Speed manual transmission. Type S and Type SP models have the sports package including 4 wheel active steering, upgraded brakes, 19″ wheels and tyres. The Base model and Type P have 18″ wheels. The Type P and Type SP have the premium package including full leather trim and heated seats. Driver position memory allows preseting of seating and steering wheel position for two different drivers.

Are you serious, have you ever bought a car before?

Ask to see the auction sheet, and don't take any excuses from them, they keep those on file and if they won't show you, then I would conclude they are hiding something. When you get the auction sheet, make sure the numbers match the vehicle you are looking at, sometimes they'll give you one for another vehicle and since its in japanese, hope you won't notice but the numbers don't lie. If you don't know how to decipher the auction sheet, google around and you'll find the info showing what each letter and number means. Also, not critical and most often not available but will help you make a decision, ask if it has logbooks and if the odometer reading has been certified. Apart from that, do the usual checking.
