Well it's not just the weight on acceleration, in your case it will understeer more as you corner. Heavier rim also means your stopping distance will increase, and you are putting more stress on the brake pads and discs.
Ya i know you have more than enough power, but I'm sure the other factors matters too

4. Window tint - light/legal
5. Professional interior and exterior cleaning detailing
6. VossenCV1 with widest tires possible - must have traction
7. Drop the front to match the back of car, possibly eibach

I like the CV1s but way too many people have them now....kinda getting played out. I'd choose another route

Yeah, a lot of might have them already, but it is still one of the best looking rims for the G37. It definitely attracts a lot of attention.

Yesterday, I pulled into a parking lot when a couple of guys were driving by in a van. They stopped the car to check on the wheels.

great job!!!

loads of torque down low!!!!

open dumps look good on paper, but suck for daily driving!!! (had them on my tt g35)

look at Volk g2's for your rim selection!!!

Sleepers are the most fun, it helps to not draw attention from the law too.
I assume your stock traction control has been disabled? If so, I'd highly recommend the race logic traction control system for this car.
You should also have it appraised. I speak from experience.
I used to get the 100 octane from the 76 on Foxworthy and Almaden in the Bay Area, it was like 5 dollars a gallon in 2001, I wonder what's the going rate now?
Watch out for modified Supras... mine only sounded like a sewing machine at idle
