Hey guys, I am advertising my car on here as I have tried on Ebay with not much success. Car is also listed on the r31 skylineclub. Here goes, as honest as possible.

Exterior:

Grey over silver paint, excellent condition bar the boot which is fading (am looking at painting it soon). Not a dent anywhere, absolutly straight as an arrow. Was a one owner car before me, ederly man, country car. Has Ti rims, and silo boot spoiler, and s3 hotplates without the plastic covering. Just spraypainted door handles, window frames, and rubber mouldings around the car have been shined up. Looks very good indeed.

Interior:

Flawless blue silo interior, even with great original steering wheel. Has slight rip on drivers side seat, but seat covers which can come with the car cover it. Cd player with 6 inch speakers all around. Shit cd player mind you.

Engine Bay:

Mods: 2.5 extractors into 2.5-2.75 inch custom exhaust. XF Throttle body with custom stainless steel intake piping, with Pod filter and CAI. Am thinking of advancing the timing but will retard it back if i can sell it. Great car, drives fantastic. Manual conversion was done last weekend (20th Jan or there abouts).

Suspension and brakes;

Recently replaced (3 weeks ago), ball joints, sway bar bushes front and rear, and radius rod bushes. GT gas suspension with stock springs. Has dual swaybars, can remove one if buyer doesnt want. Strut brace is on. RWC tyres, LSD is tight as a mo fo.

Guys this car is absolutly awesome, it sounds mean as and makes little kids cry due too the noise. It is legal noise though, but probably one of the best N/a rb30e's I have ever heard. Goes bloody good as well, LSD is tight. Time for some pictures! Reason for selling is, I am going too melbourne in a few months for an apprenticeship with the navy, so i dont really need a car while im down there.

You can contact me on msn/email [email protected], or 0418754471, too ask more questions, more pics, or to arrange an inspection/meeting place.

Oh and those stone chips in some pictures have all been fixed up :P

      This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way

      This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.

      Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.

      To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
