From what I have noticed it will only pull forward on its own if the passenger door is also open. If I have the door closed it will never move automatically

...so as to not squash / kill your passenger. It's a safety feature. Embrace it.

Personally, I thank Nissan and their Japanese smarts for incorporating this feature into the V35 Coupes :)

I certainly don't want to be that front passenger person who becomes sandwiched between the seat and the dash due my rear passenger prematurely ejecting me.

sedans there is so many different sub grades of each engine grade it is not funny.

I have a 250GTe (base model, manual seats, double din and fixed back seat) , there is also 250GT, 250GTm, 300GT and 300GT premium. All models bare base 250GT had the option for s collection (black leather/suede) or p collection which is full cream leather.

All models got power fold mirrors. Auto dipping was an option (by itself or part of a pack with camera)

For sedan owners if you want to know more let me know.

Hi spector171. Suggest you grab a big hammer and hit it hard. That'll fix it :-)

Seems to me that the best way given that no-one seems to actually be sure what is 'premium' is to buy a year specific grade 4 / 4.5 , specify 'non premium' so that you get the best price and see WTF turns up.

:rofl2:

I'm sure I posted a link in this thread to the Nissan Japan webpage, which will tell you what features are premium and what are options.

Don't have time to search right now.

Edit- here it ishttp://translate.google.com/translate?prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fhistory.nissan.co.jp%2FSKYLINE%2FV35%2F0411%2FGRADE%2Fmain6.html&sl=ja&tl=en&history_state0=

Ah Ha, Premium- = black interior, ice steering wheel controls , satnav , DVD system , ----- 'Plain as Coupe' = Black interior , now I know I'm definitely going for the non premium---seriously----. thanks again sonicii.

V35 350GT Manual sedans are are as rare as Rocking horse poo, AND, they are all listed as "Premium" but my 2004 model has missed out on Brembo's (knew it wouldn't have these), leather, (Not a problem for me) no Bose, (A factory option, even on a premium sedan) and no steering wheel controls. The help I have had in here to determine my cars authenticity has been fantastic - thank you.

This car will hopefully be as reliable and painless as my beautiful R34 GTT sedan was for all the years I owned it. I recently lost it in a horrific accident on Peninsula link, and the car quite literally died for me. I hate to think whether or not I would be typing this, If I hadn't of been in that car. My injuries are still extensive but I'm here, so I just had to get another Skyline. Thanks to my agreed value with #shannons, I had enough to buy a very good V35.

A couple of pics of the R34 before and after. This was a trophy winning car. Rear ended at 100 KPH and shunted into a wall head on on peninsula link.

I seem to have G35 wheels (after market colour) on my (new to me) 2007 G36 350 gt type P.

These are all 18x8, currently shod with 235/40 crap..Bonanza???

It is hard to match the factory rolling diameter of originals with new tyres. 

Originals  for 'type p' were 17's all round with 225/55, on the type sp, 18X 7" and 18 X 8 1/2" with  225/50 f and 245/45 r.

However, 245/45 are too wide for my current 8"...

I was hoping for wider than 235 on my rears on existing rims

What to do?

Find some SP 18 rims?   i.e. 18x7" and 18x18.5"...(I like the staggered look).

Sadly budget constraints preclude re new rims atm.

Tnx.

NB In Australia.

They look like coupe V35 18s.  I have these on my V35 sedan and I am running 245/45 all round without issue.  I find 245 a good width for these rims, they protrude just far enough past the rim so you don't tear up your rims if you touch a gutter, but not too far that they bulge.

Factory tyre sizes on these rims on the coupe was 245/45 rear, 225/45 front.

Just FYI, there is no such thing as a G36.  You have a V36.

Thanks sonici...Good info.. why do I keep thinking "g" ! dooh.

I was thinking 245 on front might make it a bit 'tracky'.  I see the sport version of mine (sp) ran 7 1/2 " fronts with 225/50..unusual size.

What brand of tyres are you running on the sedan?..and happy with them ?

Cheers.

currently running Maxxis MA511 as was recommended as a decent tyre for a good price by a tyre dealer, but no, I don't recommend them on a car like this, they are about what you would expect for a low-mid priced tyre in the dry, average steering response, not really great grip, but reasonably predictable.  In the wet, they aren't nice at all, they will break traction quite easily and unpredictably and as they wear, they are getting worse.  Once they are worn out, I will probably pay the extra for something like Michelin PS3.  I had Kumho KU36 on the front before that, they were a nice tyre, but stupidly noisy.

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
