Hmmm i get 300-350km pure city driving, like my max speed zone is 70. What exactly is this thing you installed and what does it do? im very interested. Also is it easy to install like a DIY or would you recommend pro installation.
Edit: I use 98 octane

+1 to Tunehouse
-
Just wondering if anything else has been modified to handle the extra power, from the photo's the brakes look stock standard. Has it got any suspension mods eg sway bars/coilovers or did the car need engine work to withstand the extra forces??
-
Im not to sure about the Parramatta area but give tunehouse at Marrickville a call if you want to make the trek. I take my V35 there. It cost me about $300-$400 for the initial service because they go over the whole car and now it costs me around $100 for services after providing i don't need new parts.
As for your traction problem it is most likely the tires and that u need new ones. Or you need to take it a lil easy on the gas
Is your car newly imported and it is your first service since or did you buy 2nd hand. This will make a big difference in the cost for your first service for the car.
-
So if your car was stolen and the cops had the plates its OK for them to call of the chase so the theives can strip your car in the comfort of a garage somewhere ?
They ran the plates, if it was stolen they would have never called the chase off.
-
The one thing i disagree with cops doing is holding back and hoping for you to do stupid shit. The cops should have pulled them over immediately eg for putting hands out and legs and driving dangerously. Cops secretly want you to run so they can chase and have a reason to treat the roads like a go kart track all for the reason of "chasing down".
Stupid bike rider =P, always check behind for a commodore or falcon before having a lil fun on the roads....

will do for $500 for anyone from Skyline Australia !!!
-
f*k >< with the way parts are i think you could buy a v35 and part it out and turn a profit!!

Property is the bogans way to wealth for the last 20 years. As has been mentioned buying property to live in will be one of the best financial decision you ever make. BUT!!!!! this means owning and living in the property for 10+ or even 15+ years.
Buying an investment property in this market, could be the worst financial decision you ever make. Im assuming you have a 30k deposit since you want to buy a 300k property(this means you need to pay LMI Lenders Mortgage Insurance). As has been mentioned the interest on your repayments is going to be higher than the income (rent) you will recieve so you will already be running a loss without factoring in all the other costs. YES you can claim this a deduction through negative gearing on your tax but it is only economical as if you are in the top tax bracket and you are running multiple capital gains in other investments like shares.
Below are my reasons as to why the property market is a bad investment: (remember an investment always has an opportunity cost for another investment)
-Australia is in a potential speculative bubble with concerns to housing prices. What has fueled this bubble is cheap credit and the notion that "property always goes up", "buy now or you will be priced out forever", or you see books with people claiming to own vast property portfolios in 2-5 years and teach you how to build "wealth" like them. Now at the moment all the factors that caused the increase in prices or bubble is drying up. Getting lending for a loan or to build is extremley hard and there is fear "speculation" that the property market may crash.
-People have listed that the baby boomer are retiring and are cashed up and are ready to unload their vast property portfolio they have amassed in the past 20 years. Now this is most unlikely to happen unless the property market is already crashing. In 2006 the ASX all ordes was 4600, today it is 4550. This means all that superannuation that has been invested and long term holders of shares have in fact got nothing to show for it over that period. Also the GFC wiped out billions of dollars of the share market. This means people wont be retiring early and will mean they need their investment portfolio to fund their retirement.
-Recently there has been an increase in mortgage defaults and signs of mortgage stress. The last figures i saw yesterday I think showed that 2/100 households showed signs of severe stress and had the potential to default. The majority of people who this figure accounts for is the people who jumped in when Rudd doubled the FHOG, this was the single worst thing that could have happened to the property market and has only kicked the can down the road.
-Clearance rates are well below 50%. I work at a real estate agent. A couple of mounths!! ago at an in house auction room. 30 property were available for sale. 6 sold prior 10 withdrawn, 8 passed in and 6 sold. This means more property on the market as old stock just sits there unsold. (Demand Supply fundamentals anyone??)
-Interest rates. Now this is interesting. I personally believe they will not rise. Why you ask??, just the fear alone from the RBA is putting into people that they will raise interest rates has caused people to cut spending and save. This is the same effect that would happen if they raised rates but without the increased mortgage stress with high interest rates.
-Unemployment. This is another interesting point. Curently unemployment rates are showing under 5%. THIS IS A LIE well technically it is. When normal average australians think of unemployment they think full time employees. This is wrong. When a government comes into power they change the definition to a lot of words like "unemployment" to suit their dilemma (every government does this). Now the unemployment rate currently being boasted about is higher as the governments or ABS 5% mark. They include people who have come off full time work and gone into part time work. A lot of full time positions are drying up (job add numbers slowly decreasing.) Lots of jobs are around but are mostly part time. People with part time jobs generally cant get a loan, the bank wont even look at them without having a full time job. So what im trying to say here is people are losing their jobs and unemployment is rising which is only a BAD thing for the economy and housing.
-The government (federal)- i cant be bothered explaining, its not worth my time or yours for me to explain how their policies are rubbish and have will cause future problems for us.
To conclude, I think on a general scale in Australia, property prices will stagnate for the next 2-3 years. we will see falls of up to 20% on out lying suburbs but anything 10km from the CBD in the 200k-1mill mark in the major cities of Sydney and in Melbourne will hold ground and likely grow. Remember a lot of Baby boomers own 100% equity in their property so they can weather the storm. Its only forced selling and the fear of a crash that will bring prices down dramatically. But if Greece defaults(credit tightenss around the world meaning interest rates go up), Chinas government hikes up interest rates to slow their inflation (meaning less importing of our dirt), the carbon tax (manufacturing being complety demolished coupled with the high AUD meaning higher unemployment) or anything else like another natural disaster on the scale of the tsunami in japan in any major economic country, means rough times for Australia.
Dont invest in housing for now, there are so many other options.
(This is my opinion. I hope my words hold some merit as I am completing a Property Economics course and work in the industry so I do see the everyday workings of real estate industry)

Whiteline Sway bars Front & Rear for Nissan 350z & V35
What is up for sale here is the Whiteline front and rear sway bars BRAND NEW NEVER USED OR TRIED ON for your Nissan 350z or V35 Skyline.

Comfort improves because your car sits flatter through bends meaning less movement inside the vehicle. Whiteline swaybars are manufactured using the finest grade spring steel. They are powder coated and supplied with high performance polyurethane mounting bushes in a DIY kit form, ready to simply bolt on.

This is a pic of my engine bay. I installed my self. I missed out on 1 wire because you need to get under the car and I dont have jacks.
Here is a link to a Skyline Australia group buy that happened a while ago - http://www.skylinesa...e-gounding-kit/
(read this thread towards the end you need to swap some wires around because the kit is built for the g35 which has the battery on the left not the right of the car like ours)
Here is a link to the grounding kit. You need to make a g35 driver account & contact him (its an older thread) - http://g35driver.com...unding-kit.html
Comes with complete instructions easy to follow.
The price is negotiable i would say. Ask him how much and just make a counteroffer and see where things go. I paid $130 US delivered.
Came in 6 days of payment for me.
P.S i wanted silver but got red =( but to lazy to sort out with international shipping. Specify when u pay. Red looks tacky.
-
DUDE go to the g35 driver forum there is a kit for around $130 us delivered for the our cars. I have a 5AT and to be honest it has made a difference. I dont know if its a placebo effect but when i take off with the tiptronic the shifts are instant.
-
I should have added this to my reply;
Of course, if there is any issue with the compatibility of the Sway Bars; They will be replaced with the correct ones for no additional charge.
Regards, Dale.
Heyyyy
Im happy with that. I did a bit more searches and the hotchkins that Im getting in are the exact same shape as the ones from whiteline. Its just the picture for the BNF33Z is very deceiving from the whiteline website.
Thanks for the quick and speedy reply Dale and 10/10 service, Very Happy =D

I was with Just Car. Recently moved the V36 coupe to RACV. Better cover and a cheaper price!!!!! Couldn't believe it when someone with a V35 Coupe told me that RACV will insure them but it is true.
hehe racv online quotes are Vic only, ill still give a go after the long weekend but i very much doubt they will cover in NSW....+ i just ran a practice quote to see the price even if i was living in melbourne and it gave 2.8k.....
-
how does this attach? i have looked at my diffuser and it seems like its part of the bumper. Does this like stick on or something??
-
I had a chip repaired by RACV glass for $80. The guy who did the repair said if I needed a replacement windscreen they would have to import through Nissan as he wasn't aware of any aftermarket versions, and he said he wasn't sure how good any aftermarket windscreen for the V would be.
Dodes who are you insured with? I don't think my insurance (Just Car) offers windscreen replacement.
I know this is an ancient post but im with just car and called up today and they said you have to pay your full excess to replace the windscreen...... they dont offer your normal $55+ on premium for cover. I really need to find another insurer who doesnt charge 5K for premiums anyone have a good insurance company that takes care of imports besides just car??

o shit .......... that last post was meant to be a PM......../facepalm

Heyyyy
Dale I think there has been a mix up with the sway bars.
(anyways I had a fat post written out but my page refreshed and lost it all before i could send /wrists so here is a quick summary)
The front sway bars I have received seem to be the front sway bars for the G37 not the V35.
My front sway bars : -
Now here is a picture from the whiteline website of their g37 front sway bar: BNF41Z
Now here is a picture from whiteline for the V35 sway bar I should have received. BNF33Z
Ok so what the funny thing is on my sway bar it has a sticker of BNF33z like the sway bar above but obviously my sway bar is not the one above.
Now to conclude, in your group buy the front swaybar code you gave us was Front; BNF35Z, now i searched all of whiteline and not one item came up with this item number. So I think whiteline has f**ked up and given you the wrong sway bars or something fishy is going on because the original price quoted from you was $320 but on whiteline the front sway bar for the v35 is $335 now. Either they sent you old stock or there is just a fat mixup. Anyone else pull up this problem that bought sway bars from you or did i pick the wrong sway bars up from you ><, hope you can get back to me soon =D
Thanksss George

Ive seen this mod very popular over on the g35 driver forums. I always had the feeling that having the pods in front of the intake could cause some over heating issues as it blocked air flow as well as stole air the radiator would usually receive. But then again im still a newbie when it comes to these things as I have not seen anyone post problems about heating issues.
Nice work looks very clean, anyways my 2c
BTW not sure if you have any but im pretty sure this mod voids all engine warranty + if you have an at fault accident and have not declared this mod to insurance they can void your claim. Although I have not herd an insurance company void a claim due to a pod modification but when looking at this mod it does look significant in the eyes of an insurer assessor.

Biggest killer for our value was making them illegal for P platers. The amount of P platers i have seen driving rx8's and bmz z3's means there is money out there but it wont be spent on our cars =(.
Blame the RTA for wiping 2-5k of value off our cars.
