Um, don't think it has the TV Tuner option no. But I do want to look at fitting a reversing camera, so will have to look at fitting a TV tuner of some sort. Ideally, I'd like to modernise the whole A/V package with some DVD screens in the headrests for the kids, but it's not a high priority, and we have portable options for that.

What do most people do for a subwoofer if they don't have the Bose spare wheel sub in place? Don't really want to encroach on any of the cargo space really.

i got a clarion head unit, AUX input for the tv, BT handsfree with audio streaming, radio and ipod interface. $280. no moving parts, all capacitive touch screen.

can also get the adaptor to run the factory steering wheel controls

Jesse got back to me RE floor mats:

G4911-AQ000 - discontinued.

G4911-AQ010 - discontinued.

G4911-AQ020 - Part number error.

:(

Bugger for the first two, but not surprising I guess.

G4911-AQ020 is valid in my parts master for series 1 M35's so I don't know what to tell ya confused.gif

Tried an Aussie Nissan?

OK, so I thought I would get some costs on the G35/V35 brake upgrades from Coz Ceh at Concept Z Performance together including airfreight costs for both with and without rotors:

Full Kit w/ Rotors: USD$445-475

Full Kit w/o Rotors: USD$240-280

The range in prices is for East Coast to West Coast delivery.

Specifically these would cover the following kits with Rotors:

- Akebono Infiniti G35 F&R 14 Inch Big Brake Kit w/ Stoptech Rotors, SS Lines, and Motul Fluid - USD$1839.95

- Akebono Infiniti G35 Front & Rear 14 Inch Big Brake Kit w/ Stoptech Rotors, 03-06 Sedan, 03-07 Coupe - USD$1695.95

- Akebono Infiniti G35 Front & Rear 14 Inch Big Brake Kit, 03-06 Sedan, 03-07 Coupe - USD$1549.00

Or the kit without rotors (meaning rotors would need to be sourced locally:

- Akebono Infiniti G35 Front & Rear 14 Inch Big Brake Kit - No Rotors, 03-06 Sedan, 03-07 Coupe - USD$1,405.00

Given that rotors locally could set you back around $1-1.2K, it's probably cheaper to get them all in the one package. That puts the mid-range package with the StopTech rotors at:

- USD$2140.95 (AUD$2020.00) for eastern states delivered

- USD$2170.95 (AUD$2048.00) for Western Australia delivered

(Converstion rate used AUD$1 @ USD$1.06)

Without rotors you're looking at:

- USD$1850.00 (AUD$1746.00) for eastern states delivered

- USD$1880.00 (AUD$$1774.00) for Western Australia delivered

When you consider that a decent set of Brembos from either a BCNR33 or BNR34 can set you back close to $1500-$1800 locally used, which you'd then need to get new pads and potentially rotors for it seems like a steel. Whether you like the Infiniti logo or not is up to you, but CZP provides a service to powder coat and apply a different logo:

CZP Akebono Powder Coated Calipers - ADD ON - USD$350.00 (AUD$331.00)

Unfortunately for my liking, they don't have Silver as a colour for the caliper, but I'm sure it would just require a request (I've sent an email to confirm).

Surface freight is still and option, but you would need to organise it from this end I believe.

Cheers

That's helpful having that info in one post (especially with shipping prices) Brendan, thanks.

Another option from the same site is to choose the 350Z BBK which is a little more expensive but has 'Nissan' printed on the calipers instead of Infiniti (doesn't bother me tho), & can come in "40th anniversary red" if that floats your boat.

I've copied this image from Chris's (Spoolin'12) Brake thread; http://www.skylinesa...__brake+upgrade

As you can see; they actually come painted silver. Check the link; I'm sure it'll clear up any questions. The one thing to remember is; they are FARKING HUGE calipers, so you need to look at wheel offset to ensure you have enough clearance.

This link can be printed 1:1 scale and used as a guide for clearance on a wheel you might wish to use; http://www.conceptzp...rakeoutline.pdf

Since yesterday there's the "at check" light on my dashboard I scanned my car (nm35) and the code P0615 came up. Has anyone ever dealt with this code? Does anyone know a good auto electrical in sydney to recommend?

From this page it seems that I have a faulty relay http://engine-codes.com/p0615_nissan.html .

Any images?

The picture in FAST is exactly the same as the NM35 floor mats picture I posted. Gotta remember it is a parts list and the diagrams are only there to aid in selecting the correct part.

The interior of my PNM is black (or "G"), but I don't know if that makes a difference.

Have a look here http://nissan.epc-data.com/stagea/pnm35/6845-vq35de/misc/G49/KG4900/ as there is a little more info (first Google search result when I put in one of the part numbers).

Which colour interior do you have?

That's been a while coming. Are you going to buy one? Keen to hear what the quality of info is like. I have managed to make do with the Japanese version (helpful comparing it with the G35 ones) until now.

Well dash is black but carpet is that grey color.

Probably not. Says "Owners Manual" not "Service manual". I'd have to have a look at whats in it before I'm prepared to buy one. I'm not sure I even need an owners manual.

    • Time will tell, they're doing all the admin stuff at the moment. I've submitted all the required details, photos, etc.   I was under the impression that DC coupling is the best approach, i.e.: Solar Array -> Battery Invertor -> Battery  Where as AC Coupling is simpler, however less efficient, i.e.: Solar Array -> Solar Invertor -> Battery Invertor -> Battery
    • The price is really great for that kind of capacity. I thought similar setups cost way more. How's your efficiency been with the DC-coupling? I've heard sometimes there can be a bit of a performance loss.
    • Long time no random post about shit. So I went down this deep deep rabbit hole of battery storage for the home, ended up locking in a 41.9kWh Fox ESS EQ4800 with 9 units stacked. Battery uses Lithium Iron Phosphate, similar to what you find in those deep cycle boat/caravan batteries. And yes, why did I go with a cheapie brand and not like Synergy? simply because I don't plan to stay at this house for more than another 3~5 years.  The entire install, DC coupling (removal of existing invertor, connecting the current 6.6kW array direct to the battery invertor), new 8kW invertor is $6K all up (after all the rebates etc.). Going with this lot: https://www.aussiesolarbatteries.com.au/ It did seem a bit too good to be true, however seems like the Whirlpool community has vetted it and when it comes to this kind of stuff, they seem to be all over it: https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/thread/9pxj8482?p=38   I've requested for the battery to be installed outside, next to my meter board and not inside - rather have it combust and ignite outside lol.    
    • In Vic it would be a defect regardless of whether or not you cut a hole in the sheetmetal for the return pipe. The rules in Vic are shitful, and are generally interpreted as you can "make 2 mods to the intake system". Putting an FFP and an FMI onto it will almost certainly be seen as some huge number of intake mods. You really need to speak to an engineer before doing this stuff in VIC.
    • planning a r34 rb25 de+t with some other work, rather just have it done in a shop due to space limitations any recommendations? I have most the parts already I seen online Moore Performance and DR Drift any advice appreciated thanks
