Hmm...I can't say for sure then and I have not read or heard anyone use that oil. I would stick with the regular m1 synthetic.

The newly formulated Mobil 1 Truck & SUV 5W-30 contains extra anti-oxidant, allowing for greater protection against deposit formation in hard-working gasoline trucks, vans, SUVs and recreational vehicles. The new energy-conserving formulation meets the latest industry standards for gasoline engines.
With the popularity of diesel-powered light trucks continuing to grow, ExxonMobil engineered Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck 5W-40 to help extend engine life in modern turbo-charged diesel engines, even those operating in severe conditions such as towing and hauling. This formula meets the latest industry standards, including CI-4 Plus, and exceeds the requirements for both light-duty and heavy-duty diesel equipment. Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck reduces low-temperature sludge build-up and high-temperature deposits through excellent thermal and oxidation stability. High temperatures pose little threat, as Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck maintains its viscosity and has enhanced oil film strength, helping to reduce engine scuffing and bore polishing. It also provides wear protection and reduced oil consumption with its shear stability.
"With trucks and SUVs accounting for over 50 percent of vehicles sold in the U.S. and with significant growth of diesel-powered pick-ups, we felt it was important to create separate oils for the different needs of these vehicles," said Brad Onofrio, automotive marketing manager - Americas Region, ExxonMobil Lubricants & Specialties Company. "Mobil 1 Truck & SUV and Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck are high-performance motor oils that offer superior protection for hard-working gasoline and diesel engines."

I does say it's meant for TRUCKS and SUVs. I'd be more inclined to use a performance car oriented oil if I was going to switch.
I bet cheetahdriver would know about this stuff...

The engine is pretty much the same architecture that is in the 350Z/G35/M35/whatever else (in your case) or M45/Q45/Fuga/whatever else (in my case). Why not use what they use which is a performance oil...
