Yes, you'll be fine. Nissan advices an oil change interval for the Z in Europe of 9000 miles/15000 km, using sythetic oil. Exactly the same car as the one sold here. So why should we change our oil every 3750 miles??? The 3000 mile oil change "rule" is BS, only good for the oil companies and service stations... I talked to one of the reps at the Redline booth at SEMA last year and even he told me I should be fine changing oil at 5000 miles and that changing at 3000 is over kill.
