V36 2008 350Gt Sedan Steering Shake While Braking?
Forged replied to Forged's topic in V Series (V35, V36, V37 & Infiniti)
Thanks for the info Tony, You're right, they are available under the Infiniti G35 moniker - http://www.ebay.com/itm/DBA-4000-Series-Brake-Rotor-Infiniti-FX35-G35-M35-FX45-M45-350Z-Altima-42308XS-/330961637242?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item4d0ed9cf7a&vxp=mtr These looks quite sweet. Where would be the best place to get these from in Sydney? -
V36 2008 350Gt Sedan Steering Shake While Braking?
Forged replied to Forged's topic in V Series (V35, V36, V37 & Infiniti)
Thanks for all the replies guys. I was under the impression that this is a common issue specific to this model Skyline - V36 350GT sedan (even some 370GT?), you can machine the rotors to fix it temporarily but the problem would come back soon after a few thousands kays. It's a design fault of the OEM rotors I read? That's reason I'm looking for aftermarket replacement rotors to completely bypass this potential problem. -
Hi Guys, This probably has been covered before but I just want to confirm that the OEM brake discs of V36 sedans are causing abnormal steering shake whilst braking from high speed (110-120km/h)? From what I read, swapping to aftermarket brake discs (or complete calipers and discs upgrade) would eliminate this issue. What aftermarket brake discs would you recommend as direct replacement? Apparently DBA does not yet make rotors to fit this model of Skyline. TIA

Hi all, I have not posted here for a while (used to be a R34 GTT owner) but just wanted to inform the skyline community of a bad transaction I recently had with a vendor (japanautos) on ebay, they also have their own website - japanautos.com.au The short story, I paid $389 + $79 postage = $468.00 for a "JDM JZS147 Toyota Aristo Stainless Steel Exhaust System" which was described as "In fair condition (as indicated in pictures) some scratches and dents to underside." Took delivery of the exhaust and as it turned out, both rear mufflers had severe rust internally and debris were falling out of the exhaust as I was inspecting it. Contacted seller and no response for nearly a week, I then filed a paypal claim for a refund, the seller finally responded and wanted me to post the exhaust back in original condition with tracking (which would've cost me more than $100 as I don't have a contract freight company), they then would only refund the original item price of $389 to me. Basically they wanted to charge me $79 (original postage) plus return postage $100+, FOR THEIR OWN MISTAKE! I then sent a few emails to them trying to negotiated a partial refund (asked for 50%) for keeping the exhaust, so that at least I'd be able to use the centre section of the exhaust which is still usable and not waste anymore money on return postage. Again, no response from the seller, I had no choice but left a negative feedback for the transaction seeing that the seller had no interest of trying to resolve this problem with its buyer. They then responded by offering a condescending refund of $50 if I retract the negative feedback. You guys can make your own conclusions about what kind of business this japanautos company is and the way they treat their customer. I did not make this thread in hoping to get their attention and get my money back but just wanted to warn everyone in the skyline community the business conduct of this particular Japanese parts seller. I'm not saying that all of their products are bad or falsely advertised but if you don't want to risk going through the trouble I have been through in case something went wrong in your transaction, then stay away from them. I will be happy to provide additional photos of the damaged exhaust and email exchanges if anyone is interested. Regards Jason

Not sure if it has been posted already, if so please delete. http://www.worldcarfans.com/9081110.032/re...tion-with-600hp With over 450kw it should have no problem taking the new Corvette even in a drag race! Not to mention how it will further demolish the competition on circuits around the world.

Lamborghini Estoque Sedan Concept Revealed
Forged replied to VIK-34R's topic in General Automotive Discussion
I doubt Porsche would allow Lambo to make it production, they have their own 4door luxury sedan due to be released - Panamera. Which looks even more fugly. -
