Thanks ELFGT350! Wow you've got the Rays 19" and manual ... sweet! Those I missed out on. :P

LOL, I'm exactly the same way - wanted black or lakeshore. The colour change is awesome, kinda like Ayer's rock :D

Because there were not many V35s around here when I was looking, I actually had to compared the different colours on GT5 P! As good as the rendering was or actual pictures of the car in Japan, it doesn't do the car or colour justice.

Posted in 'the gallery', but didn't receive any responses, so guessed that i had posted in the wrong thread... Just picked up a V36 370 a couple of weeks ago. Finally decided to replace my 4door R32

Nice buy Geoff. Looks looks very tidy for an 01.Sure you will have many good miles ahead.

Cheers ELF

I have to admit this is going to be the wife's daily :P I've had my toys (at least that's what she said)

This without doubt the best thing driven I've for long time. Nothing like my old GTR, but then not supposed to be. It also doesn't rattle your fillings out, empty the tank in 1.5 hours or etc, etc

And it's nice too have my 2 young boys excited to go to school again (Yes, they love the looks they get in the drop off zone)

I toyed with the idea of buying something Australian built for the same money............. for about a millisecond. No Contest

Nice one Geoff, I got the 300gt for my wife as well and for myself the 350 :P

my 2 1/2 yr old daughter can now differentiate mom and dads car lol.

A 350 for me sounds good as well, not likely to happen. But hey, can't hurt to dream

Or maybe another GTR, or a V36, or a (insert huge list of potential toys)

Hey guys, just introducing my new car.

I've posted here on the forum and done quite a bit of research before, so now that I've finally taken some pictures of the V, I thought I'd better introduce myself proper.

I picked up the car in late May. It's a silver 2003 coupe AT. Attached you'll find some pics of the car.

The rear of the car was inspired by BLISTC, when I was doing research on the forum about the car, I saw his signature and just felt in love with the way the rear looks without the badges!!!

I've already has a couple of updates to the car via Chris Rogers. A Garmin GPS has been installed with all Australian maps running from the original screen.

Cruise Control and Radio controls on steering wheel also installed.

HDTV tuner for Australian TV installed.

Changed the orange indicators for the clear ones "Group buy" :worship:

To be installed:

Plenum Spacer "Group buy also" :D

Grounding Kit "Group buy also" :)

Nice one Juan Pablo..Clear lenses always good on the Silver. BLISTC's ride is nice--I 've seen it at the V's get together a few times. Boy she rides low too !

Thanks Elie,

Yes, the clear indicators certainly make a difference! That orange colour of the originals just cries over the silver of the car.

BLISTC's car looks nice from the pics he's posted here, haven't seen it in person though!

Millos, nice car - I did the same with the horrible orange indicators - bought them before buying the car in fact.

How good is the cruise control on the wheel! I just got Chris Rogers to install the same on mine too.

The V35 is a definite step up from Silvias and Supras!

I'm loving the attention at the moment... the vast majority of people on the road have never seen one and stare - especially in a colour which stands out like Caribbean blue.

That or they think I'm a wanker with custom plates.

yeah the custom plates thing

I've got some plates, but I haven't used them for a few years because just think its too showie

I know how you feel: my v35s aren't due to arrive until July 20, but my importer just sent me photos of the brand-new, dirty big scratch on the passenger side of the 4.5A grade car... It wasn't there at the auction, but the report at the dock lists it, so it must have happened in transit :down:

and this is why im scared of importing

      Need to see other side of PCB in that area...ie; I don't see any thru-hole mounting, just soldered vias (smd zeners in SOT23 have 3 legs but only 2 are used, as reflected by PCB tracks)

      Another "where do these lines and plugs go" RB25DET question

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      4 to 5 is fine. It will be slow, but that's better than blowing turbos. I don't have a PS pump idle up solenoid on my car, because... I think when we put the Neo in we retained my R32 lines. But.... From inspecton of the R34 vacuum hose diagram, you can see that the solenoid needs to be connected to the turbo inlet as source of clean air) and the plenum (as source of vacuum - which is the place for the air to flow to to cause the idle to increase). So 3 to 1 is VERY WRONG. 3 should go to either the turbo inlet, or the plenum. Follow the other hose from the PS solenoid and if it goes to the plenum, then your 3 goes to 2 2 would also serve as a bleed port for a boost solenoid.

      Pull them out and pull more apart. You can't do shit with them still bolted to the floor of the car.

      Yes it is. ZD1 is on the other side of the board. Where ZD1 is marked is clearly opposite a 2 pin device. Our 3 pin device here is not a ZD.

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Alright, a little update on this... I called Fulcrum, who used to be the distributor in Australia. No Bueno, they don't service them anymore.  Called shock works, who don't service them but offered to dyno the shocks for performance, and suggested DNA in Sydney might service them.  Called DNA, who also do not service them and basically said they try to steer customers away from tein for this exact reason these days- there is just no support for them anymore apparently.  Both SW and DNA said they are a not necessarily a bad product, but they just don't service the brand or know anyone who does service the brand anymore.  So... I could keep calling around but at this point I think I'll probably just spring for the shockworks product, unless anyone here knows anything.  Cheers 🍻
