glad to hear about the english conversion!!!

any idea on a price?

I am still trying to finalise the price at the moment. The exchange rate is not helping but I should but be able to firm up the price in the next week or so.

Cheers

Andy

Is that it!?! fark it is small!

Thanks for that Jules, answered a few more questions for me. :(

It may be small but that Bose set up is all that you need and the bass rocks the whole car....No need to go aftermarket unless you really love your Bass Bins.....LOL

Don't know wether this is the number or not...but it's the # on my receipt from Nissan. Pretty sure they are NGK as well.

NI22401-5M016.....they are also $24.15 each.....add's up when you have 6 of them :action-smiley-069:

Hey guys, Denso have Irigium spark plugs for VQ25det.

I have been speaking to a guy there about ordering some in through Denso themselves - which they "don't normally do".

I have been quoted $13.50 + GST per plug, $16.50 shipping for a total of $97.50.

They also have a lifespan of 150,000km's.

Part #IKH22

The only downsides are money up front & there is a 3 month wait for their next order.

If anyone is interested in getting a set, send me a PM.

As an aside the EVO9 shares the same plug and Denso supply OE to Mitsubishi, so there might actually be some in the country.

ohh and it might be possible to get them from mitsubishi even cheaper as they would probably buy in bulk lots. ohh and own a percentage of denso :P

You would think so wouldn't you?

Instead of being able to find anything in the book for Denso plugs (I was calling up about plugs for an EVO9 as they use the same plugs as my m35), I was offered a set of NGK 1GR78-G plugs... Platinum... at $53.40 EACH!!!!!

This from an authorised RalliArt dealer!

It would also seem that Nissan Japan are out of the Plugs that Tony specified and do not have a restocking ETA.

Looks like I have a 3 month wait ahead of me, DAMNIT!

Can anyone tell me what the problems with the plugs that I got from Nissan are?

NI22401-5M016.....they are also $24.15 each. What's the difference between these and the one Tony is suggesting?

Dunno bud, probobly nothing more than heat tollerance. I may just be paranoid :) ... I presume that you have had no issues with your car (?)

All I know is that;

1. Different Nissan dealers give me part numbers for different plugs.

2. The guy who has been complying the M35's for the longest period of time wanted me against using any other Nissan/NGK spark plug to the one I specified earlier.

3. The Denso Iridium plugs have a 150,000km lifespan, supposedly outperform any platinum on the market and cost around $16 each including GST & delivery.

4. NGK are probably the least helpful group of people I have ever tried to deal with.

*sigh* since I don't really need them now, and after reading all that I have, I will probably get the Denso plugs and wait the 3 months.

  • 4 weeks later...
OK finished updating the above info... is there anything anyone wants more info on? anything need correcting? any other RAWS people know of to add? other parts links? etc etc?

I'd just like to add another workshop offering compliance for the M35's.

Carmen Imports in Brisbane (www.carmenimports.com).

Anyone after more info on these guys, PM me in 2 weeks time ;)

ok thats another stagea that I have to do there... (I do carmens electrical compliance work :bunny: )

top fellow. check out the two legnums whilst you are there. I've had my hands in both of those and they have naviagtion on them

Hey i went there today to check out my new stagea. Didn't read your post until just now but I did see a couple of legnums there, and a galant. Leggy's aren't really my cup of tea, but they are a nice car :banana:

I'm hoping to be able to drive my car home in 2 weeks time so hopefully things will go to plan...

Mine has no screen or tv/nav stuff so your job should be pretty easy on it i'd imagine. Is it just the radio that needs attention? ie. band expander install to pick up aussie FM channels...

PM me once you've worked on it if you like :banana:

Its been a long wait but from what I saw this morning, worth every second :D

will do. I'm dropping a car back there in the morn so I'll look at it then. PM me the Chassis # of it pls.

the radio can be done at teh same time.

do you have a dash shot of this car?

    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
