The motor doesn't consume oil bc it doesnt have a stock oil cooler, it consumes oil bc it's a ravenous oil-hungry b*tch. Nissan considers a quart between oil changes to be 'normal.'

Also, are you waiting 15-20 min after engine shutoff to check the oil?

I check when I let it sit overnight. First thing in the morning I'll go out and check and yes on a flat even surface. I've heard horror stories of the early year 370Z and fortunately I'm not having that same issue, was just concerned of why its gradually lowering.
