There isn't a direct translation from torque to angle, since, as you mentioned, torque is very friction dependent. Temperature, lubrication and how smoothly you use the torque wrench are all going to affect the final torque. Fortunately, Nissan already calculated the proper angles to use, as outlined on page EM-37 of the FSM: 1.) Tighten all bolts to 29ft-lbs 2.) Tighten all bolts to 90ft-lbs 3.) Loosen all bolts completely 4.) Tighten all bolts to 25-33ft-lbs 5.) Turn all L1 bolts 65-75 degrees, turn all L2 bolts 60-70 degrees, OR tighten to 90ft-lbs if an angle wrench isn't available. Two of the bolts are L2, and the rest are L1.
