Yeah I have been wondering about the Infiniti, they're supposedly the shit in the USA. On that topic just brought a new S15 sump. Had to get it imported from Japan $175. But at Blackburn nissan in melbourne where i got it from they have a massive sign with the infiniti logo under it. I'll ask them about this when i go pick it up. They've got VH45's no? Regards,
