whats your guys opnions on J30?
I suppose i must ask if it is a touring model or not. (HICAS or not). That makes a big difference in reliability and handling. They are cool cars, but they always need work. Like the KA, they spew oil from every seal, and because of the way the motor is set up, they are a bitch to work on.
Dont believe me or anything, I work at Lokey infiniti.
If you can get it for a day or so, come buy after 5pm and Ill look it over for you. Free of charge!
If not, things to look for. ( they almost all have it at that milage)
Valve covers leaking
Rear main leaking
front cover leaking
excesive timing chain rattle
TC rod bushings shot
Door lock actuators/amp blown. (make sure all the doors unlock by the remote)
Window regulators
etc etc.
None of this is cheap to fix
Sounds like a decent price though. good luck.
(RB swap it!)

VG's don't have chains.
i found the VG is easy to work on. =\ half the stuff you listed its expensive, unless you have to pay some one to fix it. new bushing are about 55 a set, seals are cheap, the relays and electronic are what/could cost out the ass. just takes a bit of wrech turning.
