I believe the cloth is a more comfortable seat, I just felt like I was perched on top of the leather, instead of nestled in, but that's an individual thing. Don't get too hung up on a detail like that; I think there are more important things to focus on.

Like twin sunroofs!

I notice you're in Adelaide Mr Wombat. I bought one about 2 months ago from Northshore in Sydney, flew over, drove it back. No issue with the ID check and transferring rego (except the stamp duty! $$$$!). Car was exactly as Ben described, and he gave good directions on public transport to get to him, and picked me up from the ferry.

When I looked around, there just weren't enough around in Adelaide to get what I wanted. I would have no hesitation buying from interstate again.

If you want me to take you for a spin in mine, more than happy to, just send me a PM. Just make sure you come to the next Stag cruise!

Yeah sorry bout that, just wondering if they are generally trouble free... I am looking at m35's with less than 50,000kms on them... There are a few c34's here but no m35's so I can't really check them out... Looking at ones in nsw....

lol, talk about a vague question.

Whilst I like Legnums, an M35 Stagea will shit all over the two cars you mentioned.... unless you want to tow something

Legnums that bad? I thought they're a bit faster/better handling out of the factory than the M35's, no?

More thirsty too...LOL...and probably harder to source parts for?

NM35 will be a minimum of 8 years old.

There will not be many with under 50,000kms without being wound back.

They are generally very reliable cars.

Only thing that definitely will die is the turbo.

Any Nissan dealer will get parts in for you, but it is definitely easier if you DIY or have a mechanic/dealer that actually enjoys what they do and will take the time to figure stuff out.

As a point of reference, the only failures I have had have been the turbo, passenger side front wheel bearing assembly and the radiator.

Not bad considering I have just passed 215,000kms and mine is a 2001 build (one of the earliest batches).

FYP

i rekon they are reliable too

mines done a radiator (seal, not cracked) transmission has an issue but its a known fault normally fixed in japan. my dealer was a d1ck. and the turbo is still going strong at 120+k on the clock!

Gt high performance - kirrawee !!!! Anyone had anything to do with them... I haven't talked to them, just looking online at the moment.....

If you're in the Sydney region I've heard nothing but great things about northshore prestige motors. I would definitely start there.

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
