Def gotta do sides too, and some rear end treatment as well. The amuse front is too agressive just to leave the rest of the car stock IMHO.

If N/A it really doesn't matter. If boosted, for street use the 3.3 is a nice rear.
I believe both the G35 and 350Z with auto trans have a 3.3 rear end.

It makes for longer gears. When making 400WHP+ it comes in handy on street tires.
