SOLD!

In regard to the Power windew, it's a matter of replacing it. You can buy them from the states shipped to Australia for just under $200. They can be pulled apart and cleaned, but this just buys you a month or so before it dies again. Common Problem unfortunately. If you do a search, you'll find plenty of info on SAU.

I have a 2004 Premium Manual V35 Coupe. I like the manual, pretty easy to drive to me even in traffic and certainly gives you a feeling of being more in control of the car. Years ago the cost premium for a manual was about $5000 over the auto, but like you say, they are now under $30K, so good value. Best handling car I have driven, way better than BA and BF, XR8 and XR6 Turbo's that I have had. Brembo's are great. Only downsides are the window and CD player issues that are common, as mentioned above. Even if you buy one of these without those issues, there's no guarentee, they won't arise soon after you buy it! Factor it into your budget. I have replaced the drivers window motor, and rather than fix the cd player, fitted a iPod adapter that allows me to control the ipod with the steering wheel controls or Stereo buttons. For the money, they are the complete package to me. I may upgrade mine in a month or so, so if you are in Qld, keep an eye out for it in the For Sale section of SAU.

How do your V35 tyres wear? Evenly, unevenly (if so unevenly by a lot or a little)? Has anyone had a rear wheel alignment for wearing out the inside of the rear tyres?

What brand of pads did you go with? Are your brakes Brembo or Nissan?

It looks like it has been upgraded to a new model the PA15-NIS, so look for one of those on ebay or just google it and find a place that will ship it to Australia. See the website for details. http://www.usaspec.com

Infiniti's are made in Japan and exported to the US, but obviously have different specs. I have 04 Manual, with no oil issues. But I have changed the drivers side power window motor. Another thought regarding manuals, is that the later models missed out on the Brembo's.

LOL!!! They did make me send them the filter so that they could check it was the filter. Hahahah! Good one.

Thanks for that, just note that the link provided is for the G37, in other words the V36 Skyline, not the V35. Similar approach to get to, just the layout of the headlight is different.
