Sweet. Hoping to pick up the car tomorrow after work :(

Thanks Iain. Looking forward to owning and driving the M35.

I can't believe their a 2002 model. They look so modern.

What's the go with the flutter on this video? Is this just because that part of the intake pipe was removed?

nah thats the examination panel for the air filter. just a cover on it sits there loosely.

and in answer to your other question ..definately not..thats a aftermarket bov on that thing... no turbo flutter on my vq although i wouldnt mind it ;D

Also done some reading up on the NM35's (neo based autos) and they do have a similar setup driveline wise to a GTR ,

A site mentioned something to this effect ..

1. sports mode - puts enough traction to the front to stop the rear from losing traction (80-20~)

2. syncro mode - 50-50 equally front and rear percentage

3. snow mode - hydrolic/hicas sensitive for launch control so theres no wheel spin (even with your foot flat wont deliver power to rear diff until youve taken off).

hope that helps

You're welcome dude.

I'm pretty new to them also.. i've owned mine a week now.

Although Ive been wanting one for 4-5 years prior but could never afford it until recently.

its by far the best car purchase ive ever made ;)

that is flutter, lol. and the reason they uploaded the video with the examination panel off - makes it more audible

Non standard BOV creates the flutter.... but be warned it is a sure way to attract the attention of the police and nice little fine.

Is that state specific ?

Like i see alot of r32's,33's 180's 200's, and s15's around with aftermarket bov's that are clearly audible in QLD.

Do the same rules apply across aus ?

Andy,

Do you know where you can buy the power duct from? I assume the price you quoted is from Nissan spare parts with which part number?

It is the same air box as used on the V35 that has a "power duct" fitted in this spot for the NA motor.

Many M35 owners have opened this spot up. Some have been to Nissan for the "power duct" ($180) and other have made their own way of sealing the box from hot air from the motor.

Just had a look, and I'm looking for the top part (not the bottom part as shown) that has the extra opening at the front (where the "inspection hole" usually sits)

The M35 3.5 litre stageas have this extra snorkel there.

You wouldnt have happened to see any pics of these would you? Ive never noticed anyones air filter looking remarkably different to what Ive got in mine (Even though Ive heard people go on about these 'power ducts'). A visual comparison may be in order ;)

Yes, but does anyone know where to get said vent? ;)

Would it actually add any additional air flow? Im sure you could pull a nissan part number for it from FAST if you were after it, but it just looks to be a beveled edge on the inspection hole :)

Nissan Aus. around the $180 mark :)

But it is no cheaper from the US!

yes, more COLD airflow

    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG is has not responded to my emails so far after purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
