Were you ever able to determine what caused your G35 to hesitate when attempting to start? I have a simular problem that has been dubbed an extended crank.
 
Thanks!

Problem with a starting hesitation or extended crank? by triblkg

I purchased G35 new approx. 1 year ago, after about 12k miles I started experiencing (ramdomly) what can only be described as an extended crank problem. It has not yet failed to start however, it is scary when you are away from home and your car takes several seconds(more than 6) to start. I know it is not bad gas as I have switched to several different brands and the problem still happens. There are no error codes generated and the dealership has replaced several parts to no avail. I have been attempting to get Nissan/Infiniti to step up and address the problem however, all they seem to want to do is continue swapping out parts. Has anyone else had a similar problem with a starting hesitation or extended crank?
    
Thanks for your replies!

you need to explain it a little better!!,it cranks but won't start or a low battery voltage,could be faulty starter?,cam shaft pos.sensor?,timing off a bit,when you get it started does it run properly!!!.Or does it have hesitation problems??,please try to give me a more accurate symtom(s) your sedan is having!!

The car hesitates(takes longer to start) during starting/cranking process; it does crank, after a while, and so far starts. Start time varies taking anywhere between 2 secs and approx. 12 secs before it starts. Battery voltage is good(new battery). Crank/Cam pos. sensors are good - newly replaced as well as IPDM, fuel pump and fuel pressure sensor. The problem does not generate any error msgs.
 
Sorry about not providing more info this is the first time I have ever posted.

after scanning the first time, showing the cam sensor #2; put it on and fixed that problem, then was showing the #1 sensor; put new one in and still showing the code for #1; took it back to auto part thinking was damage, got another new sensor and the lights still on; every time I erase the code, lights go out run the car for 1 min and/or 1hr as soon I shut the eng down and crank it back up lights are on again and will not go away and the same code for #1 sensor shows up again with a new sensor; the car runs fine, has power, however, takes few seconds longer to start. I used an $8,000 comp to scan and erase the code, nothing shuts this lights. The car has 108,000 miles never gave me any problems, and still running like a champ, with the same lights on. Has front and back new brakes, new tires, rotors in good shape, however, never machined. need help on this one.

My son is looking for a G35 Coupe. I see plenty of used ones in his price range with between 50,000 and 80,000 miles. Should I have any concerns with this amount of mileage from a maintenance standpoint.

Not if the car has been maintained. The 2004's had some brake issues, but I have an 2005 with 60,000 miles and have only replaced the rear brakes once, with the fronts having half of the original pads still OK.
 
I also changed some belts and filters and have had regular oil changes.

Have a 2004 w/ 72,000 mi. Have done break pads once, and rear tires about every 22-24,000 miles. I'm a fairly conservative driver. Other than that, the normal maintenance stuff. Been a trouble free car.

That's real good!!!!!,the only things I would suggest is:change pads & rotors to after-market ones!!!,OEM on this car wear-out ALOT faster than other cars,I changed my car's rotors and pads to:Hawk HPS pads,and EBC rotors,not very expensive and will hold-up alot longer than OEM pads & rotors PLUS alot better braking and alot less dust!!!

I might have to disagree w/you on that brakes issue!!,I have 2004 Infiniti G35 sedan I bought in Jan.2008,had the dealer put new front brake pads and new rotors on and a year & 1/2 later the pads were worn down almost 70%!!!!.I drive around town alot that does increase brake use alot more.Remember also these brakes bite really nice!!,may-be that's WHY they wear out alot quicker than other cars,I changed my brake pads & rotors to:Hawk HPS pads & EBC rotors since that change there is alot less brake dust on my wheels & alot better stopping power,I'll be checking these pads too,soon as I rotate my tires at next interval.
