Hi All, i am very interested in these M35.

Regarding the 4X4 system does any one no much about the distribution of power?

Is it like the older GTR systems full rear then spread to front when rear slips?

Are there aftermarket bias controllers available?

Regarding parts and so on what kind of costs are there? EG Auto failure Big Stuff and little stuff brake pads what fits.

The Big Question: Insurance? are there any 26 year olds on sau that have one of these fully insured? What does it roughly cost ?

Any futher info would be greatly appreciated

Pikie

The 4x4 system is rear biased but upon slips allocates upto 45% (from memory) to the front. On the ARX it has a limited slip rear diff as standard. The ARX also has 2 syncro modes for starting on gravel or snow. This allocates some power to the front up to certain speed then it goes back to rear bias and power to front on slippage.

Have a look at the link, http://www.nissan.co.jp/STAGEA/M35/0110/, there are demonstrations of various functions including the 4WD function and the modes.

I insured through Just Car as Shannon's would not insure me without a garage in NSW.

Hello,

I recently got my car insured by Famous Insurance ( Ex Vigil), previously they did not do M35 Stagea's, but after some discussions with their underwriters they now do them. I got a good quote for my Stagea AXIS. Under $1200 for a rating 1, over 30 on the Northern Beaches of Sydney.

If you need more details PM me.

Ahhhh....looks like a good setup for the intercooler.

P.S. Like what they have done with the mesh over the inspection port on the cold air box....must get the mesh and do that myself.....saves buying a POD filter and produce's the same result.

P.S.S Also got a quote on doing the turbo up yesterday....not cheap...$1,200 for the highflow and new impeller.....good for 13PSI everyday though....must do!!!....must get more HP.....lol

Have you seen the airbox of a V35? They have a piece fitted to the front of the airbox that works to have it open like that and only get cold air!

sounds a lot cheaper than mine even with exchange rate and 12.5% gst factored in but I prob paid the mechanic's markup as well

I notice it feels stronger but there's more lag

can't tell you about hp as I haven't dyno'd it yet

Have a look at the intake on the far right of the picture.

What we really need is the English version of the software so we can read the screens!

Thanks for all the information, I am very interested in getting one of these M35's.

Quick question tho: I am trying to work out how what model gets the 3 gauges in the center console unit? from looking at the pictures I think they are turbo pressure, oil temp and maybe volts?? Obviously i would like to get a car with this as an option.

Or, does the TV screen display any engine management at all?

Cheers.

Also, has any one registed one of these in south australia? will I have any problems if I buy from interstate and register here?

I am pretty sure that it's the 2002 - 2003 Nissan Stagea 25T FOUR-V 4WD turbo your looking for. As for the TV screen....next to no info is on this....infact it's pretty useless until you convert it for TV/SatNav/DVD. The TV does display however your direction and fuel/travel info....plus some other shit of which I have no idea....need a translater...lol.

As for rego, I'm no expert but once it's complied you should be able to register it in any state(check with you dealer/compliance first).

having just got back from a trip up north I will say that this 250T RS four is an awesome touring wagon and will not disappoint

has tonnes of torque right where you need it and the awd comes into its own on those steep metalled surfaces where traction becomes an issue and in the wet, the tail-end of cyclone funa having crossed my path

I would like the ar-x if only for the fact that I like to venture over rougher ground where clearance is necessary

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
