Just replace the stereo/head unit = easiest option.

My cd player worked at first but eventually it ate my cd and wouldn't play it and wouldn't spit it out either.

I got an aftermarket head unit installed, and then I had to take the stock unit apart to retrieve my cd.

Any audio installer can do the install - its an easy job (according to autobarn who fitted mine - didn't have any trouble).

I did give them a printed copy of the instructions for a V35 ipod/stereo install (very similar to M35 dash) but not sure if they used it.

$80 & 45 mins for the install. very happy :)

You'll get better radio reception and better sound in general from an aftermarket head unit.

And they all have aux input nowadays, but some also have ipod compatibility so either way you can have the cd player AND the ipod, now thats having cake and eating it too.

Not an option for us AR-X and also the RX owners... In-dash 6 disc changer.... Needs some serious aftermarket panels to get that audio out and replace with a DIN/ISO standard unit that fits the RS....

Just get an iPod and a PA11-NIS.

Easy to install and works beautifully :)

Hi all,

Just bought an M35 (250t RS Four V) from my girlfriend's brother (I'm Aussie, he's Japanese, I'm in Japan for the next 2 weeks).

Been enquiring about importing it into Aus through RAWS. Under RAWS guidelines it is legal for a registered dealer to import certain M35s with a production date from October 2001. Girlfriend's brother says this one was built in October 2000... and i'm looking at paperwork that says the same thing. RAWS importer I was talking to never heard of an M35 built before 2001. I've googled production dates, and 5 different sites say production of the M35 was from 2001 to 2007.

Are the paperwork and brother mistaken and it's actually a 2001?

Anyone ever heard of a M35 built in 2000?

Will be great if it turns out to be a 2001 because I can't import (or get compliance) if it is 2000.

Thanks for any help.

Something not right there. M35's were definitely not built before mid 2001. Other evidence of this is that a lot of the new bits in the M35 didn't show up in most Nissans until 2002 or late 2001 (VQ Engine, 5speed auto, Front Midship Platform, different styling, new dash layout etc). Also the series 2 stagea was still being built up intil sometime mid 2001 so it seems very unlikely they would have had 2 different models in production at the same time.

Does anyone have a part # for the plastic guard that protects the front axle and the hardware affixed to it?

Its the one after the big one that protects the bottom of the motor etc.

I had a major bottom out in Windsor not long after I got the car and the plastic protector is in pretty bad shape, thinking about getting it replaced when it get's serviced.

NM35 and HM35's began rolling off the production line in mid 2001.

If you give us the VIN, we can look it up in FAST for you to find the build date.

Yeah, mine went on the way back home after picking it up from the storage warehouse.

That was 2 years ago and I haven't yet replaced it.

Having said that, the part number you are after is 75881-AQ060

I recently replaced my 6 stack in dash cd player from my 25ot rs four with a dvd/sat nav eclipse unit from frankies auto electrics. Speak to Chris Rogers about the double din fascia and new a/c control buttons. Fits and looks sweet.

Another possible way to check build dates, that i have used on import motorbikes, hopefully same for cars is to check brake and fuel lines etc. By Law in japan they have to put month/year on brake and fuel lines as they have to be replaced every three of five years or whatever, thats why we get them cheap because of the prohibitive cost of doing all that work. Worth a look. Was quite commen on bike to find year xx bike had actually been built 6-9 months earlier etc....

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated. Rb25det s1 walbro255 fuel pump nismo fpr holset hx35 turbo fmic 3" exhaust freddy intake manifold q45tb q45 maf   Re: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Fri Apr 12, 2013 5:07 am No, I didn't. I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.

      There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
