    My New M35

    Eyebrow heights (cantre of the wheel to the guards) are Front: 390mm/ Rear:350 mm Also are the blue struts (axis?) shorter stroke or stiffer than stock whats the difference?

    Ok, well the axis stuff is a bit stiffer? Yeah a couple of mates said to go gold or charcoal....I am not sure yet though, need to do some photoshoping.....

    The wirring is for the aftermarket tv, gps, and aftermarket tv tuner and ariels for gps, there was a lot more wirring that that!!!! They said there was a knock in the front suspension so put some standard stuff in the front, than i asked for the lowered set too, which they put in the back of the car for me. It looks pretty shit with the front so high and the back low, but am worried how low its going to be if I put the lowered stuff in the front vvvvv

    I can't handle the chrome, you cant tell by the pic as the car is filthy, but they are seriously uncool chrome, performance/creature comfort mods are what i want to spend money on, I just dont want to vomit a little everytime i see those wheels ........ Interested in dyno for sure

    After lurking on this side of the forum for a while and reading most topics related to m35's, I have finally picked up the new car, and drove it back to adelaide from sydney in 14 hours 25 mins (including fuel and pub for shniter). So its got cruise, sunroofs, tv, reverse, electronic nismo muffler, hid's, weds/kranze "rapier" 18 x 9? inch wheels, turbo timer, and heaps of other stuff [random amps/etc bose sub, splits with tweeters on dash/rear doors etc] Very very happy, but there are a few things that need attention. Mechanically its all good, they had to do a wheel bearing on the front machine discs, change the front struts due to a knock, and put a new stereo in (It had a jap gps and pioneer screen in it on arrival and replace radiator prior to delivery. Now I have a stock set of struts in the front, and lowered springs (yellow) and blue shocks in the rear, so the rear sits very low and the front sits very high and obviously looks shit and handling is wierd as [very stiff rear and very soft front]. I have recieved the front struts and springs (again blue and yellow nismo??) the old jap head units (usless), when they had the dash apart to do the stereo I got them to remove alot of wirring that is no longer needed (for the aftermarket head unit/gps/aftermarket tv tune). I think I am going to put the other struts in the front, but i think its going to be way too low, thoughts?? Also with the wheels, not really my thing but its not hugely on the priority list to get a new set straight up, I hate the chrome, and was thinking about taking them apart and sand blasting and powdercoating them, but what color? Charcoal or something???? Sorry for the essay, but have had a lot of time behind the wheel to think about this stuff, please tell me what you think/see wrong haha. Also the car is filthy but took a couple of pics anyway...... strut and check out SOME of the wirring

    As stated previously I will be putting it on the hoist prior to purchase as i do before buying any car. My old car (race rally reg evo 6) had to have all the underbody sealer removed (also a northern japan[snow country] car) for quarantine so when I picked up interstate I also checked it out on a hoist, had some minor surface rust but nothing that had penetrated, so when i got home I gave it a light sand on the problem areas and some undercoat and she was apples

    yeah hopefully I'll have it back by the cruise.... it'd be just my luck that there is a delay and I'd have to go pick it up that w/end

    Yeah i have had 4 imports so far, and am not too bothered about kms aslong as everything is good condition, general wear is an obvious sign of kms being wound back, and we all know it is a common practice with imports, but if its in good nick and I have warranty I am not too bothered, I will be flying over checking it out on there hoist (I am a qualified mechanic by trade), and if all is well I will be driving it back to SA on a trade plate.

    Hello everyone, been lurking on the stagea sideof this forum for the last couple o months. My new car is going to be complied very soon and I have a few questions....... So, I have driven a few m35's and done alot of research.........decided I wanted one with a few options (leather[not tan], non bose stereo [ease of conversion], sunroofs and tv had to have warranty for when the turbo blows or turbo already rebuilt). Found one that I liked through nagoya motors and I have come to a arrangement with them, and put a deposit down, and will buy it (pending a couple of things) has anyone dealt with them and if so had any problems? Just waiting for compliance and then I will go pick it up. From what I can see its got a different grill,color coded surrounds around reverse/fog light, spoiler,head unit, exhaust and wheels (these wheels arent really my thing so probably will be for sale soon), anyone see anything in these pics that i have missed or know what some of these aftermarket parts are (brand of wheels exhaust, whats the go with the infiniti gril, what the spoiler etc etc?). Any help would be much appreciated, and I look for to coming on the next sa stag cruise. -cheers
