Paint finally done.

Looks good

What size spacers are you running on the front to fill the R34 guards out? 20 or 25mm?

Also looks like you have flared the rear guards as well?

My car would have looked very similar if I decided to stay with the factory silver

Can you provide a close up pic the the bonnet hinge mounts. I need to re fab mine.

cheers mike.

I think I joined your club 'fear of speed humps and spoon drains'.

and driveways. :)

my driveway is like a speedhump and i have to be +50º from straight to get out without scraping.

at least its a 2way driveway. so i have room to swing. otherwise i'd be fkd.

Thanks for all the comments.

30mm spacer on the front and the rears were flared when I bought it but I had them reshaped a bit because they looked pretty bad.

Color looks a little darker in the flesh. It's R35 gunmetal with a little silver added to it. Close enough I didn't need to do the door sills and still look ok.

Wheels are just resprayed the original Nur spec color.

Here's the only good pic I have of the hinges. You can also see the difference in color.

My latest purchase, crappy camera phone picture.

Would this have been on a car transporter a couple of weeks ago sporting NSW rego?

I spotted an S2 DAYZ on a truck heading south on Heaslip road a few weeks ago.

Neat ride.

:)

*EDIT*

Just noticed that it still has NSW rego in the photo

Running consistent 59s/1min runs all day which i was very pleased with considering the lack of power compared to most things running up the hill and the extra weight. Need to take more brave pills for the final corner (30ft straight drop to the left) and esses

  • 2 weeks later...

Been a bit of a lurker for a few weeks, so thought it was about time to put up a pic or two of the newly aquired wagz:

2002 M35 250 RS-V (yes, the VQ25DD with 4 speed auto). Had to buy it as imo its the only decent looking M35 i had seen to that point and the Impul kit really sets it off.

    • Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
    • and it ends up being already priced in as though you're just on 91RON without any ethanol. Car will lose a bit of economy as the short and long term fuel trims bring down the AFR back to stoich or whatever it is for cruise/idle for the engine.  
    • Oh, you are right. But, in Australia E10 is based on 91RON fuel and ends up being 94RON. Hence it being the cheaper option for economy cars. The more performance oriented cars go for the 98RON fuel that has no ethanol mixed in. The only step up we have left then at some petrol stations is E85.
    • There is a warning that "this thread is super old" but they ignore that anyway...
    • With 10% Ethanol, we're talking 2-3% fuel consumption difference. The emissions reductions and octane boost in my opinion far outweigh this almost non existent loss.    My tanks sitting at 80%. Luckily that should go down fast as I'm on vacation again for the next two weeks.
