Man I went through that same boat I just decided to go for 5/30 Mobil 1 and I've always used the Mobil 1 filter and I'm 71k on my z. I did run 10/30 royal purple but I was Naive and changed oil immediately. I was going to try 0/40 but why bother with that I mean our cars are designed for 5/30 oil.

I think im somewhat convinced to use Redline 5w30, but in my situation would i just use the 14610 instead? and also would a nismo require anything different?

same here man i've always used Mobil 1 on all my previous cars and never had an issue, i just feel like Redline would probably be the better option here, only because its more expensive lol

Both filters the 14610 and the 14612 will work fine. The 14612 I use because it is shorter and is easier to get into the cramped space with the thermostatic plate. If you do not have one, the 14610 will work fine for a base or a Nismo.
