QUOTE (STAG250 @ 29 Oct 2008, 07:41 PM) *
A heads up re high stop light. I failed WOF today because of it and learned from Nissan that there is only a full top panel replacement above the tailgate window. Cost to you sir? $425 NZD. $300 2nd hand. f**k that s@#t. Managed to pass after some messing around and busting into the sealed unit but a precautionary tale should you be in a likewise unhappy situation.
to whoever thought up that nonsense in Japanjust got back from having the resistors and diode replaced on circuit board and all is sweet again
total cost $40:40 parts/labour
Should any of you need to do same the resistors are rated at 2.62v but I replaced with 2.7's and this is ok. I also was recommended to replace the diode and this the Auto Electrican supplied.
Btw it's a delicate operation removing inside panel to get access to nuts and bolts holding the led light assembly on. Be careful not to break it.

I enquired today also and basically front rotors are same as maxima's but after march 2002 there was a change and rears are same as xtrail's. Here in NZ they are BLOODY expensive working out at about $300 each!
Found some better deals at after markets but basically fronts are not to be found except from Nissan, though the price I was quoted form my local Nissan dealer was higher than the after market guy.

beware the high stop light

Hey guys.
Just another piece of misc info.
For those of us who are not changing our brake calipers but wish to upgrade our brake pads & rotors;
Front rotors and pads are the same as 350z touring/V35 Skyline/current Maxima
and
Rear rotors and pads are the same as the X-trail.
The rear pads & rotors for the 350z or v35 will not fit without modification.
Just thought you would like to know.
thnx for that
mine are warped and was told that fronts cost $300 and rears $150 but will check tomorrow the prices for those4 you mention

My old man's Audi tiptronic is set up the wrong way too (push forwards to change up, back to change down), and it feels wrong. I'd been thinking about changing it to correct it, but he never uses the tiptronic function and I don't drive it anywhere near enough to justify pulling it apart to find out what it works off...
only feels wrong for you manual addicts
feels right to me

I've been shocked at the pitiful range on the fuel light the Stagea has compared to other japs, caught me out when I first bought it.
are you kidding? I think it's great
I get 80 plus km's on mine

I see your turbo replacement thread is quite old. have you done the supension since then? SK's bars are available here through Shockabsorber Services Int Ltd - can give you more details if it is not too late.
I'm in NZ
I did some of the bushes and now need to do the sway bar bushes and thinking of replacing the bar instead if anyone has the correct make/model/part number that I need. Will get Autolign in Auckland to do it.
-
I don't have the turbocharger's report. Mechanic's only refers to highflowed and steel shaft conversion. Does that help?

SK (Gary Cook) can be hard to reach via this forum. Here is a link which provides an address for his business from which you can buy bushes:
he's hard to reach via email as well

cheers for that
how much did your new sway bar cost you Andy and did it include the bushes?
-
Anyone here found an after market nolethane bush that fits the M35? I need to replace mine and don't want the soft shitty ones from Nissan that probably cost twice as much ex Japan.

drain the reservoir and I will guarantee you your 4wd light will come on as mine did after I had my turbo jobby and not enough fluid had been added and bleeding been done

got it back finally but I'd be looking at getting a metal one fabricated if I knew what I was in for - apparently this can be done in 3 days or less and only a hundy or so more
getting mixed opinions on the life of these plastic top rads too mine lasted just 6 years and 100,000 km's

SO I get to 104 k and the top radiator hose connector breaks. Quite common apparently and can's be repaired. Now I have a 10 day wait for part ex Japan $140nzd.
now I'm told I must wait until the 17th at least (back order) and no loan car in sight
This car is proving to be a problem
unlike the old one -
Hard to say. I was driving in a storm and lots of debris on the road and driving rain but I thought I heard a noise that may have been it. Considering it is just in front of the driver and the plastic fractures I would expect to hear/feel something. Good thing I checked my gauges soon after driving along motorway and picked it up. I got off and parked up pronto else it would have been much worse.
