Nismo also use fibreglass

Not compatible If memory serves me, even the PNM35 was not able to be tuned intially but was added via request. The difference is that the PM35/PNM35 ECU is much the same as the G35/G35X ECU, thus can patched in whereas the NM35 ECU is completely different and they are not interested in developing a remap service for an ECU that was not commonly available in the US.

Silver PM35 Axis in Cardinia Lakes Pakenham yesterday afternoon. Very nice

Dolphin front bar for NM35 is unmatched for airflow.

Spotted white NM35 Axis out the front of Autobarn Dandenong early this morning

If I recall, using a cable tie to tighten the two ends of the connector together fixed the warning light for some people in the past (never had it personally, so can't confirm). Might be worth a try before anything else?

1x Spacer 1x New gasket Longer bolts for the plenum & 2x grub screws to replace the studs Custom brackets

Series 2 M35's don't come with a turbo and I wanted the updated model.

Back then there was a tiny market for M35's and outside of some Japanese tuning houses (click my sig for one that is a good read) nobody touched M35 development except for what you find here or on the M35Stagea.info forum. PNM35, yep 3.5L NA AWD.

What do you mean "follow through with this"? I sold a number of kits with the phenolic spacer and I think Andy and Craig did as well. My old M35 is still alive and kicking on the Mornington Peninsula - going by the last pics I saw in a "for sale" ad, the spacer was still in there (you can tell by the raised plenum). I am not running a plenum spacer on my PNM35, although if I could somehow get my hands on a Cosworth plenum I would most likely add a spacer.

Good luck. I don't even have the original aluminium spacer that was later used as the cutting template. You'll probably be better off buying a gasket from Nissan (see OP for part number) and having one laser cut to your desired height

Nope. Ever-so-slightly better for highway. Better in stop-start depending on whether you play on-boost of not

Maybe you should look at what the Yanks have been doing with 350Z/G35's if you are looking at throwing money at a V35. Of note, I have a mate that is looking to sell his complete V35 HKS kit which would suit (also includes injectors, electronics, exhaust etc). Just throw some stronger internals at the VQ35, up the boost and tune. Then spend whatever is left on handling/stopping the V, maybe some cosmetics of your liking and the rest on other parts of your life (or save it). Just 'cos you have it, doesn't mean you need to spend it!

Model, series and pics would be helpful

I don't have the rear fog light but I definitely have the heated windscreen.

PNM35 Factory options: Aero kit Dual sunroof Cold pack Viscous LSD Sat Nav w/ reversing camera Front corner cameras "Comfort Package" which seems to include a Sat-based DJ service Intelligent key and immobiliser Aftermarket: Cruise control Bilstein struts K&N pod filter w/ heat shield Nismo exhaust (since sold) OX rear under body brace (since sold) Non-OX mid under body braces (unknown workshop name) Earthing kit (one i have not seen before, may have been custom by the previous owner) Under body air deflector If you are looking at buying one, you can always go to http://nissan.epc-data.com and enter the VIN to view the factory options.

Series 1 and Series 2 have different headlights as well as bumpers, grills and bonnets. All models (RS, RX, ARX, Axis) use the same headlights within each series. Yours is a series 2 (PM35 or PNM35)? I seem to recall that the 2004 VQ25det powered M35's are not registerable although this may have changed...

Replaced with OEM bushes or aftermarket?

You didn't search first did you... That Stagea belongs to "Beregron"

From that clip, it sounds like an excellent investment for that exhaust.

Only the VQ25det "RS" models had this option. All other models had the integrated stereo which has proven a bit unreliable. Some "RS" models had a cubby instead of the gauges.

Yes, the "ring" inside the hole where you screw the brake line into the caliper

Two child seats definitely fit and there is room in between to put stuff, just not really an adult for extended periods. The rear can hold quite a bit and if the rear seats are folded down you can fit heeeeaaaaappps in there. As an aside, the reclinable rear seats make installing child seats firmly quite easy. Just lock the seat and belt in position with the seat somewhat reclined, pull the lever and push the seat up. Bingo, solid child seat install. Then just attach to the anchor points as required.

It is also Easter Sunday and is quite common for family get-togethers. This is the reason I won't be participating.

Not eBay, but fairly rare. NM35 Dayz front bar Pretty cheap too!
