  1. I know this was directed at Ironpaw, but I have had 3 serious issues with mine. 1. Passenger wheel bearing assembly (Nissan replaced it with a new one for $211) 2. Turbo died... as they do 3. Radiator died (it is a 16mm thick core designed for Japanese Summers... not regular 40+ Aussie summers) 217,000kms and is a 2001 build. Dunno what you mean by "exciting"... was it the manual transmission and the polished runners? Couldn't have been the lack of power, lack or torque or FWD... Camry's have all of those things and they are not exciting. If you keep an M35 stock, the only thing you'll have to change will be the turbo when it dies. Just service it regularly (I do 10,00km services) and it will be a damn reliable and comfortable car.
  2. I guess it depends on where you (or more importantly, the car) are located Sean
  3. Agreed.
  4. Looks like and Alpha GTV/Toyota Verossa love child
  5. So you guys are suggesting that Alfa's break down and that the only reason people buy them is because of their looks?
  6. You are a strange man Mark Craigland, but I do have a question for you. Whom is lamer, the planker or the person looking at plankers on facebook?
  7. I'd say it was a bad egg if it was making those kind of noises... ... having said that, I drove a number of Series 2 C34's prior to buying my M35 and was completely underwhelmed with them also (as was the wife!). Never drove a Series 1 C34, but considering lower power/torque figures and 1 less gear I don't think I needed to. Love my M35. They are indeed far superior.... I just wish they could tow like a C34 can
  8. All those engines use the same oil filter... hence being in the same list. Why do you need a larger filter? Just get one with a GOOD synthetic filter medium.
  9. Sorry guys, no love from Bayside Nissan Part numbers don't come up on either of their systems... let alone a price. Maybe Craig's "Crazy Skyline Lady" can work some magic.
  10. Stardust HD not available from the AUS store fkn. Already used up my two US game downloads. Bugger. *sigh* so is Ratchet and Clank any good? Without the lasting enjoyment and skill. Having said that, I did enjoy playing with the wife (and online with friends) for a while. (as an aside, grabbing your mate's character for a split second just as he is about to jump over a fire pit - causing him to plumet into the flames over and over is tear shedding hilarity. Especially if they are the frustratedly competitive type )
  11. For 28USD?
  12. Jethro/Dale, did you guys want the entire unit or just the surrounds?
  13. LMFAO Better to be inside a blue waffle than to try being a manly "black hole" Maybe you should install some pink headlight strips and a leather "earthing strap" to complete the look you seem to be after
  14. Not wrong, definitely paramedic treatment would be required. Luck one would be nearby!
  15. Dead Nation, Wipeout + expansion downloaded without error in 3 hours (no ADSL2+ ) Hmm... Will have to try that out tonight. Stardust HD looks like a bit of fun and I've never played Infamous (not that I'm interested to do so, but hey it's free). Anyone played Stardust? Any good??
  16. You can use them at stock ride height if you want. I noticed severe camber wear when I had 18x7.5" Nismo's (Nismo suspension is 20-25mm lower than stock). Whilst I want to get some wheels, no chance I would do so again before installing a rear camber kit installed.
  17. Hahaha, you said it right, but I started reading it and then spaced out for some reason (not a rare occurrence). Just put it out there in "pleb speak" so I could understand (and to make sure I was right in my thinking )
  18. Windscreen de-icer.
  19. The Blitz filter has a synthetic filter medium and a titanium dioxide (TiO2) coating. When the Ti02 coating is put out in the Sun for a few hours, it "reacts with natural sunlight and a powerful anti-bacterial & deodorant reaction takes place" and is then ready to be put back into your car. (from the website) The regenerative procedure: Hybrid A/C Filter is blue in color when new. As it absorbs airborne pollutants, its color turns to brown. So check once every 6 months or every 2 oil change intervals. Vacuum the filter gently (optional but recommended) & wash it under faucet to dislodge as much dirt as possible. Let it sunbathe in direct daylight for 6~12 hours so that Photocatalysis can take place to oxidize vital pathogens (i.e. disinfection) & to deodorize a vast spectrum of odors. Now, your dried filter is ready to be used again. NOTE: When you notice that the filter has stubborn stain/dirt adhered to it even after repeat washes, it's an indication that the filter may have reached the end of its lifespan because no photocatalysis can take place if the TiO2 coating is blocked. Please note that a catalyst is neither consumed nor altered in the reaction so theoretically speaking, this TiO2 coating does not diminish. However, it doesn't mean that these filters can be washed & reused infinitely because as particles get trapped by this filter, some portion of the coating is permanently blocked. And as you vacuum & wash these filters, some coating may be scraped off over time. Nevertheless, this is still the world's most environmental cabin air filter. Ryco, Repco and other generic filters? Pfffft.
  20. Confused. C1206 is not a Nissan error code (they start with P). If it is P1206, that points to an error in "Injector Cycle Cylinder #6" Have a look at this site for Nissan error codes http://www.permoveo.ltd.uk/tabid/122/OBD-Error-Code/p1206/Diagnostics/Nissan/Default.aspx Still doesn't explain why the 4WD light is on. The Synchro switch isn't pressed it is? (Silly question I know...) C1206 is a Ford code Headlights, just dive in from the back.
  21. Call the Paramedics! Aaron is on drugs again! I mean really, seeing cameras on trees in fictitious places ("Princess" HWY?)...
  22. I know that, but since you are parking where the paramedics would park for an emergency, perhaps you should start moonlighting as one? Here, with this addition to your car, you might be able to get away with pretending to be a paramedic! http://page21.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/j137109709
  23. Not until you get lights, a siren and a defibrillator
