That's what we designed it to do so you guys don't damage any componentry." I'm afraid to say it, but I believe he's right.

Sorry, this is not from Japan so I place little credence on it. I appreciate your post, but if Nissan is now saying—and contradicting their own 370Z owners manual regarding the oil that can be used—then they should have done so as a full disclosure on the Monroney, in their owners manual, and at the time of closing—all in writing. I can also assure you that the person you spoke with has no authority in said matters, unless it has officially been handed-down from Corporate Japan; in such case there will be a document with their recommendation.
