Apart from the spacer thing:
In the summer months, driving in traffic, you may notice the oil temp start to climb into the 220-230 range. This is normal for this engine. I run Royal Purple oil in the motor which helps a bit. An after-market oil cooler is available for the NISMOs if you want to go the $1000 route.
Your Yokohama Advan Z tires may last 1 to 1 1/2 years (10-15k miles). They are quite expensive to replace, especially if you're not used to buying racing tires. When I replaced mine I went with BF Goodrich KDWs, which are cheaper and overall better in my opinion.
Those are the only negatives I have come up with since buying mine in January 2010. It's a wonderful car that turns heads wherever it goes. Congrats on your buy.
