Fact: My father has a 350z with 196,XXX on Mobil1 5w-30 with fram filters and no problems.

Fact: My 370z has 59593.xx miles on it using Mobil1 5w-30 using the mobil1-110 filter. That filter is for the Nissan titan but offers a little bit more filtering. MY interchanges used to be 6k because all of my driving was freeway. Now that I live closer to work and only commute 13 miles a day it is back down to 3250.

You should have done some research or some more thinking before posting up more questions that have been answered too many times to talk about in this thread. Hope you investigate what ISLAC means and how it effects your car. Get educated.
You're taking this way too serious, I appreciate your input but you could've been a whole lot nicer about it. Research did not help at all because nobody will agree on one brand of oil/filter, and I believe that I am quite educated (being an engineer myself) but I wanted to take the opinion of people who have had the car for a longer period of time than myself. Being a car enthusiast leads me to ask such silly and repeated questions just to insure that I get the best possible outcome for my car
