It does work, but its definitely not worth the price tag.
The main benefits for me are a higher rev limit, and no 180 km/ph speed cut. I've done well over 200 at phillip island.
Anyway.. check this out. An overlay of my dyno chart against a mates 2005 rev up 350z (factory 221kw). You will notice that the rev up motor has a much much better top end, but mine makes a little more power everywhere else. Probably due to the aggressive (and almost dangerous) tune of the IMPUL ecu.
What do you mean agressive dangerous tune ?
-
You can safely add 20kw to that graph, not a bad figure but I would be worried about that lean out in the midrange...
I have this impul ecu installed as well. Dont know what it does i got dyno at 161.4kw , how can you add 20kw ?

Guys i have these brembo pads geniune purchased from nissan. They are brand new and still in the box only opened to take photos. It comes with all the 4 pads for fronts and 4 pads for rears and geniune brembo grease . The first nissan dealer i rang (rockdale) nissan wanted $1200 and the cheapest after shopping around i found was $970.80 so your saving a few hundred.
You can pick up anywhere in sydney or i can register post them australia wide. They weigh about 4kgs so postage wont be too much considering the savings .
One more thing they are for a V35 SKYLINE or 350Z with brembos.
PRICE $820

Ill put 1k on the table for them
what state you in?
new south wales .

I have these chrome wheels on my car and everyone says how good they look .
-
Yeah guys im pretty happy with it. Im either thinking about getting them painted in a gun metal grey or selling them and getting the new ADVAN F15's pretty hot.
I still like the look of my wheels. I have some minor gutter rash might get that repaired and see how they look. If not yeah probably sell them. There is no structural damage just one of the spokes has about 2cm x 2cm shaved section.
$1500- you reckon Blistic ??
Any takers ???
-

The insurance company's name is lumley's. Honestly so far they have been helpful. The spoke wasnt damaged just a scratch otherwise brand new.
I might put them for sale and see what offers i get. They are a pretty stand out rim.
In regards to the insurance they sent me a quote today of $1800 for the total amount of the remaining 3 rims. A little less than what i was hoping for but again they didnt need to go out of their way to help me , so i leave it at that.
-
Well i got a reply today from the photos i sent to the insurance company. They said an assessor will evaulate the rims and i will be given a cash settlement amount. They have already given me $990 for the damaged rim so im not sure if they just times that by four or not.
If they give me $3,600 rough and take my wheels i dont think i can get wheels similar to the ones i have. The advan f15 are the newer model and are $1,500 each without tyres. If im not happy i might end up selling them. Just how much i dont know. I took them off the car on the weekend.
The fronts are 19 x 8.5 with offset 30 .
The rears are 19 x 9.5 with offset 30 .

Guys listen to this story. One of my rims got slight damage on one of the spokes. It wasnt my fault it was a hit and run i the carpark which the guy was found. So my repairer tries to track down the rim which there is none and has been discontinued.
So the insurance co says we will pay you the amount for the last known price of the rim. Which we say is $xxx . I recieve the monies and try to get the rim repaired. I take to montan and may i take to custom whel repairer . Its chrome and cant be repaired. So i return to the insurance company.
Im not happy with the outcome for the moeny you gave me . Its not enough to replace the wheels and i can not buy just one rim. They come back with send us a few photos of your wheels and will we give you an evaluation. Im not sure what price they are going to come back with but i know i wont be happy with it . But i dont know what else to do.
Here is a few photos i sent them. Im thinking i can sell them and get more than what they are going to offer me .
What do you pimps thinking ?

Thanks mandra.
one other question, do g35 parts fit on the 350gt?
my car says g35 on back and everything books.

Hey,
I'm thinking about importing V35 2 door manual coupe after finally getting to the point I can justify a decent car. Im pretty torn at the moment between the V35 and a Liberty GT.
Who am I kidding, I want the V35, its just hot. I've check out more threads than I can remeber on them mainly about the car but I've still got a few worries related more to owning them.
1. Do you find they attract cops as much as R32-R34's do? Most of the discussion's dont really mention the V35.
2. What are the chances of ever getting decent price for trade in/private sale? Ive been watching carsales but I dont see many V35's disappearing. I also tried to ring dealers and ask for a trade in price but it was either no or "bring it in and i'll try see if we can help", not even a ballpark figure.
3. Any opinions on how far the value will drop once more V36's start landing here?
Um, some details to hopefully anwser any questions before they need to be. I'm 28, dont drive like an idiot, looking to mod either of them fairly mildy for performance (no bodykits, no canons, no huge rims) to try and keep them low key. Reason those 2 are last on my list are not to bad on petrol, decent engines, decent looking, insurance isnt a killer (though the skyline would need to be justcars which has me a little :-/ ) and the price is right (bang for buck).
So yeah, any help would be great.
In regards to police , if you leave it standard im sure they wont bother you. With insurance i went with lumley's paying around $1000.
Mods k&n fliter , z-tube and the motordyne spacer. Exhaust. Fuel is really good i always use v-power getting about 600kms per tank driving moderate.
With the re-sale value depending on what you pay for it but its a really stand out car i think they will hold their value really well. People ask me what i paid for my car and they are surprised so cheap. I have a 03 manual silver coupe.
-
he shoulda got you for bad taste cos you run neons.
but yeah, sounds like a regular check for sydney. they're right though, you can't have flashing blue or red lights in your cabin area while driving.
I dont run neons . When i picked the car up from the docks i saw there were there when i opened the doors. They dont work when im driving only briefly when i enter the car.
Again it doesnt flash when im driving only stationary. Its a neon blue not a police blue
-
I do wish there'd be some parity in what the police do.
To be constructive, I believe that they should check over more rust-buckets, bald tyred cars, cars with fishy number plate covers, lack of rear number plate lighting, yaddayadda.
They could even co-ordinate with the dog squad to bring dogs into the HP and let the doggies smell drugs in cars > whack the dealers!
But hey, a good idea is too much commonsense for bureaucracy
I agree there are people out there drunk to high heaven and im coming home from a day with the family and they harrass me .
-
so does your car flash the blue light when ur idling for more than 10secs???
My car has a blue flashing led...but it doesn't go off at all unless I turn the car off and activate the immobiliser?
maybe a good idea to bring it to an electrician and just make sure they have the stuff wired correctly, because if you're idling and it starts flashing...then that is illegal and the cop had all the right to pull u over and defect ur car.
most cops are decent ppl and only tend to give u a hard time if you try to become a smart ar5e and get lippy.
Yes it does flash and slide along the dash if the car is stationary. But i was driving when i went pass them and it doesnt flash . And i wasnt being a smart as i was just telling them that it doesnt do that , and my car has been complied .

So im driving along the princess hwy about 10pm tonight near sutherland where the two roads form into one just before you come to the old tram line. These loosers come up behind me i saw them so i maintained about 80-85kms in a 80km zone. They followed me for about a km then sirens.
I pulled over the offer says . Your being recorded and video . You have been pulled over for a random breath test have you had anything to drive. No count to ten blah blah . So i count and he asks for my licence.
Now he shines the touch on my dash and says whats that ? I have HUD deflin whatever it is and when the car stands for 10 seconds it flashes a blue light along the control box. You cant have a blue light coming off your dash thats in personating police. I said its only like that when im standing still for 20 seconds once i drive it goes off. No it doesnt thats the reason why i pulled you over . I say you said you pulled me over for random breath test. No that is one of the reason the MAIN reason was the blue light coming from your car. Is that standard he asks ? yes came with the car its an overseas car from japan.
Anyways to make it shorter the other officer gets out starts looking with the touch in the car and says this car has to go for engineers certificate you cant drive it switch it off ans step out of the car.
Now i get out and the neons under the car turn on when i open the door. Amazing they didnt see it. So we go to the rear of the car and they start telling me about grey imports . One officer wants me badly the other sergant trying to explain it to me. And gives me an option Either you switch that unit off or your car isnt going on the road and will need to be cleared by engineer.
So i go inside play around without opening the door because i know the neons will turn on and come back and say , can i just cover it util i get home and then can disconnect it properly. The nasty ones laughs and the sergant says because you live around the corner you can go and make sure you disconnect it.
The other officer says all this is been recorded if we catch you again with it your going to get a engineers certifcate. Now again how to enter the car so i figure wait until they leave i open the boot play around , these guys arent moving . No choice have to get in the car so i drive away they follow me . They come next to me i covered the HUD with my t shirt and they drive off. What loosers.
-
i have some recaro's in mine it sits really low. Im 6 foot and just see over the steering wheel.
-
Yeah its major and i have this wonderful IMPUL ecu which requires some special plugs . Im getting it done at local nissan so il let you guys know how much it ends up costing.
-
As it says 80,000kms service due . I did search for what actually has to be done. Didnt come up with anything. I was told that majort service is at 100,000 kms is that correct or not ?

No. Swaybars should have no effect on launch. Only cornering.
If standing start is your primary concern, shift weight to the rear and soften the rear suspension out. FM platform cars aren't fantastic for launching thanks to the weight distribution and rear geometry. Do you find yourself axle tramping when you launch? Making use of what power you've got might work out better than chasing more power. Outright power only really matters once you're rolling.
Another option (if you can find it for a reasonably cheap price) is to get a VLSD, and/or a 3.7:1 or 3.9:1 final drive ratio. I'm not sure what diff you have, but I found my VLSD to work reasonably well. I rarely ever did "single tyre fryers" with mine, anyway.
I've got a 3.9:1 final drive in my current diff (compared to the 3.5:1 in the stock setup), and my in-gear acceleration is a lot stronger. There is a sacrifice in top speed, cruising RPM, and fuel economy though.
sounds interesting i will look into it . Thanks
-
I also have a manual 03 . Not one dot of a problem. Nothing im really suprised not a door or a fault wrong. I dont do track days i drive to work and back and weekend fun.
Mine did come with loads of extra's though i think the previous owner really had alot of pride in taking care of it .
-
Instead of adding more power, why not clean up the handling? Sway bars are great bang-for buck mods.
Or give it a mild drop with some decent springs.
Will sway bars give me off the mark acceleration ? im not looking to go quick around the corners just a little bit extra off the take off
