  2. Hey guys,

    Just got a hold of a 2003 Nissan 350gt V35 Manual..

    Engine light randomly comes and goes and when on idle the car randomly turns off and takes a while to crank over then once started I have the check engine light, VDC OFF, and SLIP light on -

    Checked brake fluid and tyres and they're fine...

    Heard that it could either be the camshaft or crankshaft sensor and would like to confirm since I am still slightly confused, Have just moved on from a BMW so I understand if this question requires a face palm haha

    Also when taking off or "revving" the engine it doesnt sound right, as if it is slightly off or somewhat misfiring (not sure if its because of sensors?)

    Would appreciate help greatly!!

    Ive had the same issue. Do an ECU diagnostic which will reveal if its either the crankshaft sensor or left or right camshaft position sensors...

  3. Back from the land of the rising sun..amazing trip - would recommend it to anyone.

    Ended up sourcing the 19" OEM Rays wheels domestically before i left however I did find a set of used Nismo S-tune Suspension for V35 on a yahoo.jp auction. Picked it up for Y42500 which is the equivalent to about $450AUD. I thought it was a great find. Fitted it yesterday and noticed the difference! Photo attached below - theres about 15-20mm drop from estimate without measuring.

    Visited Super Autobacs in Tokyo Bay only to find that they only really stock performance parts for BRZ/86gt however most other parts could be ordered in. Basically a supercheap auto or an autobahn with a performance section and a variety of brand named wheels.

    For used parts the numerous Up Garages stocked loads of V series parts so very worthwhile visiting/browing their online stock these guys have a reputation of dealing only with local buyers so would recommend visting if you are over there.

  4. I'd been 90% committed to buying an 83/84 350GT in Jan until I spoke to someone today who has a large and detailed knowledge of these cars , I'm now looking at going back to the future and getting into another R34GT-t , on one hand of things I'm somewhat relieved to perhaps have avoided a potential financial tsunami on the other a tad disappointed to miss driving/owning such a nice looking vehicle.

    I'm just not in the financial position to take a consecutive succession of between $1 and $3K+ hits which I have been advised can occur with some of these vehicles.

    I too was puzzled over the large price variation in seemingly extremely similar models , and outside of obvious reasons I am , well , still puzzled :woot:.

    huh ? im a little confused. ... :domokun:

  5. Hi Guys,

    So I am in Japan for 3 weeks early Jan.

    Would it be wise to source some parts oem/aftermarket whilst there and ship them home ?

    Items that I had in mind were:

    • 19" OEM Rays V35
    • Catback Exhaust
    • Series 2 Front + Rear Lights

    What are everyones thoughts ?
