hi,

for those in japan, i wanted to ask you a question about car wreckers..

i've been looking for a part for my V35 skyline for a few weeks on yahoo auctions but not many standard/OEM parts seem to come up.

my question is: do they have many wreckers in japan (like justjap and the likes we have over here), that hold a heap of front cuts and happen to sell parts online like justjap do?

i was hoping i'd be able to source something very small from a V35 front cut from japan and it seems stupid waiting forever watching yahoo auctions for a part that seems like its never going to show up..!

i appreciate any help that anyone is able to provide :thumbsup:

cheers,

Warren

have you tried just buying it from nissan? if it's just a small part the associated costs with having someone buy it from a wrecker and send it to you here will be more than the value of the part. just ring nissan and order it :P easy.

yeah they could definitely get it. but you're right it could be quite expensive for something like that. I thought maybe you were after a small piece of interior trim or something. but it's worth asking them and finding out a price.

Hey not meaning to jack the thread but is there any wreckers who have a R34 GTR shell/chassis for sale? Mate needs one without any prior damage as his is a write off.

Saw one a couple of months ago. Gone now. Will keep an eye out.

looking for the stock paddle shifters from the V35 350GT-8 sedan if anyone sees them let me know via PM! thanks!

i know a person who might be able to help.

I have to check but ill be in touch if they have them.

buy the equivalent part off a G35 from the US. Shipping is a bit steep, but there's plenty of spare parts retailers where you can order online over there. Plus it's in english.

    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
