Forgot to note, the single plate was the original one from new/nissan.
-
Single or twin plate? From what I have read and been told by mechanics. The V35s chew twin plates to dust really fast. Getting mine replaced right now. It should be noted that my twin plate clutch has only done like 16000kms from new. I barely ever drive my V35. It spends more time in the shop than with me. The single plate lasted over 110000kms

Village Motors Nissan at Kippa-Ring helped when I had your problem. But if you don't have the code they won't be able to help.
-
Japan won't help anymore. They say it's a security risk. Look for a topic I posted called Spare Keys. You will find what you need in there.
-
Well done getting the help. It never was that Nissan Australia can't help. But that they won't help. Helping import owners means you won't buy their cars.... It sux I know.
-
I paid $600 fitted for the windscreen. I replaced the motor and pulleys in the doors myself for $300. Do NOT go to Nissan unless you are rich or into S&M cause that's what you will get. Order the stuff for the doors online. The windscreen was from a local place. Hope that helps.

99 GTT, How do you know that the Narva Blue Power and Phillips Blue Vision have 2000 lumen or less? Did you find the specs somewhere? Can I have the link?
I was looking for bulbs with 2000 lumen to put in my car. Thanks.
Hey why don't you just put in something like a Narva Blue Power.. These have a Kelvin of 3750 and a Lumen of 2000 so the have 80% more light and 20% whiter Light
And unlike the HID's they are 100% ADR approved. I have these in my daily and beleive me the are twice as good as the stock ones and also look great with the white light.
Or
If you don't mind spending more money (no point on my daily lol) then the Philips Blue Vision is the way to go also ADR approved and have Kelvin of 4000.
Now they are no where near as good as the Factory fitted Xenons i had in the GTT but they are legal and trust me they are not far off.
If you are interested here is a link to the reasons you should't install HID's in normal headlights. (apart from having driver respect)
-
It can depend on the state you are in. HIDs need to have auto levelers and washers if they are in Australia. This is according to ADR 13/00 Here's the link: http://www.comlaw.go...tml/Text#param0
There may be ways around it. But it would take arguing with the cops and maybe a court case to pull it off (see the section regarding lumen):
8]6.2.9.Other requirements8]8] The requirements of paragraph 5.5.2. shall not apply to dipped-beam headlamps.025] Dipped-beam headlamps with a light source or LED module(s) producing the principal dipped beam and having a total objective luminous flux which exceeds 2,000 lumen shall only be installed in conjunction with the installation of headlamp cleaning device(s) according to Regulation No. 45.75]With respect to vertical inclination the provisions of paragraph 6.2.6.2.2. above shall not be applied for dipped-beam headlamps:475](a) with LED module(s) producing the principal dipped beam, or475](b) with a light source producing the principal dipped beam and having an objective luminous flux which exceeds 2,000 lumen.35]025] Only dipped-beam headlamps according to Regulations Nos. 98 or 112 may be used to produce bend lighting.025]In my view, it looks like you "could" put in HIDs that use less then 2000 lumen (correct me if I am wrong). But I am no expert, so don't take my word for it. Do some research.025]Do NOT take this as legal advice. Look up the site yourself and/or speak with a legal expert for advice. -
I saw a white v35 pull into the shops next to Todds HiFi at Virginia when I got my car back. Was it any of u guys? I was getting Petrol at the BP across the street.
This was on the 7th at around 6pm.

Mine is at East Coast Customs right now. I'll let you know how it goes. Never heard anything bad about them though and they have been around for a long time. But just like all good places. They can be a little expensive.
Get what you pay for, the way of life. They are at Virginia now. They moved from Geebung not too long ago.
-
You need the ignition code / super code for your car. It should be on a tag with your original key. If you can't find it look for TomR33 on here. He should be able to get it for you. He got mine. Good luck.

Marz Performance Sells RHD Headlights. That's where I got mine. I know another guy who can get them too. Send me a message if you want the contact details. Marz Performance has a shop in Ebay BTW.

I'd be up for a cruise, but I need to know dates as well as my V is in the shop getting a lot of work done. I have no idea how long it's going to take. I'm getting a turbo installed, service, coil overs, front and rear sway bars, lights fixed, Front belt replaced....... The list goes on.
-
By the way I got mine done at TSX Auto Styling at Nerang. Cost me nothing as I was getting a lot of other work done there at the same time.

I have tint on my rear lights. The cops don't bother me. But that could also be because they see the glowing blackview recoder in front of the rear view mirror.
I will point out that it may be better to get the tint where the bulbs are not covered but the rest of the light is. It does lower the strength of your lights if you cover the whole thing.
When I got mine done, I thought that my lights stopped working and had to get someone to check. As I could not seem them from the rear view mirrors anymore.
Still, it does look really good.
-
Sorry to say that I have lost my BCM code (even my backups were blank). I hear that Nissan Japan won't help anymore and I can't seem to get in touch with TomR33. I still have two keys but I would like to have the code just in case.
Anyone around that can get the codes for me?
Thanks,

Shoot me, I paid nearly $200 for my Titanium Nismo shift knob
-
Spotted a white V35 Coupe going through the Brisbane CBD, passing Gotham Tower (That's what the locals call it. Think it's JAG). Looked stock but very clean. I think it had the cream interior.
-
Try Marz Performance, that's where I got my RHD lights. Or PM me for a guy I know.
-
Try the Nismo Titanium shift knob, I bought one for my V35. It has the right shift pattern to keep it legal too.

There isn't a full black version, all you do is spray the whole thing black when you buy it. I should know. I have one sitting in my study. Nice to know that I'm not the only one that likes it.
I suggest buying it directly from DAMD Japan like I did. I got a 15% discount when I ordered it. You might get the same. The kit without the badges cost me a little over $5200 before postage and stamp duty. Over $7000 all up.
that badges cost over $300 for the front 1 and around $150 for the back.
Hope that helps.
Hi thanks for the quick response
but im having trouble finding the black version at the damd website?
and as a matter of fact having trouble finding some other parts here in oz
-
I have to agree with Greg. As long as you stay under 3000revs the fuel economy of the V35 is quite good. But do take note as soon as you start smashing gears the car knows you want to drive fast and changes how it guzzles fuel accordingly. I was in your place once, my other options were the Mazda RX8 or the EVO. It's a close call. I suggest doing some trial runs and see what feels best. The V35 runs real smooth but has a real heavy clutch. I would guess the WRX is on par with the EVO and has rock hard suspension, is super fast, but is owned by every man and his dog + fakes. As for the Mazdas, well they are common cars. Hope that helps.

I buy lots of parts from www.japanparts.com for my v35, never had any problems. If they don't have what you want you can also email them and they will source it for you.
I just had a peek and they have this: Nissan: 80550M/ 80551M ACTUATOR AUTO DOOR LOCK FRONT.
They got pics so see if it's what you need. Hope that helps.
