Looking to purchase a g37 coupe 6mt

I'm looking into hopping back into the VQ scene. I want to buy a used g37s 6mt

I'm sure a lot of you are very experienced with these cars afar a certain amount of miles, so my question to you guys is what should I be looking out for with a car that has about 100k miles? Any certain important service's that need to have been performed ?

Also if I get a PPI at a local infiniti how much should that cost? Also do they perform compression tests in a PPI through the dealer?

lmaoo I know I know, Only reason I made that my username was cause growing up the car I always wanted was the 03 g35 6MT since they came with Brembos OEM. Kind of wish that they stuck with brembos for the 37 as well.

-Check for CSC replacement, most cars at 100k should have had it replaced already.
-For certain years (2008 I think?) check to make sure the battery venting TSB has been performed.
-2008-2011 have a chance of the gasket in the timing cover of breaking up, causing a loss of oil pressure. I would personally have any used vehicle (especially at 100k) in the model years above perform an oil pressure test.
-Sticky/shiny dash on earlier model years near vents

Like mentioned above make sure the slave cylinder has been changed along with the master cylinder. They are both very expensive to replace. The clutch fluid should have been replaced with GTR fluid. Make sure you shift it at high rpms when test driving to make sure there are no grinds. My dash is sticky, irarely notice

how much would you say both are to replace if they have not been replaced yet? And I was looking at the DIY video for the clutch fluid replacement, will definitely be doing that right away.
