The G35 has a much different structure around the strut mount. With some custom brackets I'm sure it can be done.

That would be fine. It should not get exceptionally hot.

Does this come with a fitting whereby a line is connected to the block to eleviate the pressure? I've been told that the VQ engine has several areas on the block (ports I guess) that have plugged fittings that are capable of being tapped into to run a line from the block itself to a breather tank/oil catch can to eleviate the pressure that exists in the block/crank case area. Is that what this is doing? Thanks in advance.
Yes the ARC can is connected to the drivers side crankcase vent that is located on the back of the valve cover. This it T'd into the passenger side crankcase vent/PCV valve. Please note that this is techincally not emmisions legal. The T then runs into the ARC can. Hope that helps!
