And ive also read that most places (gas stations) that charge for it put moisture in your tires, which is no good....

Discount tire airs up your tires for free. Also that damp sensor is a bunch of bs. most sensors only last 6 years. Just don't put fix a flat and you should be good.

I had green caps when I bought the car took it to a different Nissan dealership and asked if that meant they were nitro fill and was told no when I got my Z back it had gray caps on the valve stems... Opinions

So... My caps are blue and have a N2 on them. Just new caps or am I colorblind and they're really green?

They lied...lol

Green does mean nitro. They might have just switched them so they didn't have to deal with it.

My Z06 came with regular good 'ol air in the tires. All four tire-sensors are giving me accurate to the PSI pressure in real-time nearly a year later. Don't sweat it.
