I believe that synthetic is "recommended by Nissan" not required, if this service department has any other information from Nissan requiring it then he should be able to provide it to you.

I think he just read "recommended" as "required" or "WARNING could cause problems"

They are just misinformed (or possibly lying).
I would use synthetic rather than conventional though, especially with the heat issues in the Z.

Yeah, I've considered it, but I figure conventional every 3K vs synthetic every 5K, tomato-tomawto. I don't take it to the track, so I figure it'll be fine. Plan on flipping it around 30K miles anyway and let the next guy use synthetic
