    Usb cable

    I had a mysterious USB cable when I bought mine, turned out that it wasn't plugged into anything, and even though the factory Bose was still in it, guessing the previous owner may have had a USA SPEC PA15-NIS or similar audio interface due to the broken CD stacker and took it out before selling, maybe ...perhaps just an extension to charge devices?
  2. Cheers for the review Scott - is yours exactly the same? Could explain why it appears to me this isn't a very well-worthy mod ...perhaps a selection of differently weighted shoes would have similar effect?
  3. Any further updates on this?
  4. Subscribed in April, would be nice to see my supporter pack arrive soon guys. Cheers

    spot the stagea

    Slick black C34 parked near Macaulay Rd North Melbourne. Very, very nice indeed!
  6. Just a quick update for those interested, had the local mechanic hook it up to the scanner and no errors/faults were detected ...this may be because the engine was warm so will be leaving it overnight next week so he can start when cold ...thinks it's most likely the throttle body that needs a clean as Scotty has already mentioned
  7. Cheers Scotty, i appreciate it mate ...i have a warranty so i'll give the dealer a call ...was hoping it'd be something simple that i'd missed in my extensive searching that i could fix myself ..aside from this issue, drives well as far as i can tell once engine warm ...but you got me worried now haha
  8. Had my M35 for less than a week so far ....this morning on the way to the office had an elderly gentleman driving a funeral home hearse wave to me like i was driving one too!
  9. Hey Scotty, thanks for your welcome and advice! No mods have been done by me, though i think the previous owner had changed the exhaust. No engine lights have been on at all and haven't checked plugs yet though it was serviced a few days before I purchased - haven't had it even for a week ...tbh, compared to the R31, the engine bay is quite overwhelming! The issue only occurs when the engine has cooled. I'm in Melbourne's northern suburbs ...happen to know of anyone who knows their way around the M35? Cheers mate
  10. Hey everyone. In the last few days I acquired a 2003 Stagea NM35 250t RX to keep my '89 Silhouette company ...so i'm a newb to turbo engines and imports ...can't believe how much of a pain the stock Bose system is to repair/replace! ...Anyway, I have noticed rough idle/surging at startup combined with black smoke from exhaust for up to 5 minutes when cold and also after sitting for a few hours ...within 10 minutes the surging subsides ...could it be an oil seal somewhere? It feels like it's going to stall but doesn't. Love my Nissans but in no way a mechanic, though not afraid to give repairs a go. Have already scoured the forums and internet for possible solutions but haven't seen the exact same issue yet ...any ideas anyone? Thanks!!
  11. Thanks Plattsy, i'll be sure to do that ...just thought i'd start off here first ...and thanks Humbla, my pride and joys
  12. Hey everyone! New to the forum obviously, however I have often come here over the years for tips and advice and i'd like to thank you all! Owner of a R31 1989 Skyline Silhouette for the past 13 years and just in the last few days acquired a 2003 Stagea NM35 250t RX to keep her company ...so i'm a newb to turbo engines and imports ...can't believe how much of a pain the stock Bose system is to repair/replace! Ripped the existing unit out to give a few love-taps to see if the CD's would un-jam but to no avail ...i'm happy listening to the engine for now while i get used to it all. Also have noticed rough idle/surging at startup combined with black smoke from exhaust for up to 5 minutes when cold and after sitting for a few hours ...within 10 minutes the surging subsides ...could it be an oil seal somewhere? Love my Nissans but in no way a mechanic, though not afraid to give repairs a go. Have already scoured the forums for possible solutions but haven't seen the exact same issue yet ...any ideas anyone? Glad to be a forum member finally Cheers!
