g'day fellas

looking to buy a V-series soon, first forray into Jap cars and looking forward to it! Currently driving a 67 mustang coupe having doing a ground up rebuild want to get into something different. Fell in love with the 350z's and after finding the V-series for cheaper decided she was the car for me.

At the moment im looking at a 2003 V35 350gt. any advice?

[ELFGT350]

Good day Ronan, I can see you are a man of good taste having a stang. My bro had a '69 fastback. Good move to what I reckon style wise is a modern mustang. The only advise I would suggest for a grey import is to try to get one thats not modified. That way you know what you are getting and can get alot of info here. & obviously you can mod your own way later.All the best, look forward to seeing some nice pics.

Hi guys/girls,

Hey guys!

This is my first post on here. I have just put a deposit down and will be picking up my second car on friday....

A 2004 350GT Premium (Manual)

Just going to start off slow (famous last words) get a set of nice matte silver dished rims, coilovers. Then down the track hopefully pick up a plenum spacer and exhaust system, sways etc.

First up will be some iridium spark plugs and new leads and a k&n panel.

Anyway guys, hoping to attend some cruises and meets

Cheers,

Sam

Welcome Vthirty5

New leads?? leads for what?

The factory plugs are platnium and should be good to 100,000km.

Hi All

Long time member but not a bigger poster.

Have owned my V35 300GT for about 2 years find them to be a great car and the Skyline Ozzie pages to in invaluable for info in reagrds to these cars.

Skylines Downunder (NZ) hasn't got a big following of these cars yet so I'm always having to look else where.

Cheers

Hi Everyone

Just picked up my 03 V35 350GT.

Love the car so far.

Just filled her up after getting about 380kms from a full tank. Is that normal for these cars?

It doesn't really surprise me, I used to drive a 3L 2JZ soarer and only got about 400kms from a full tank.

Anyway, i hope to learn a lot about this great car from the people on this forum.

Thanks

[sonicii]

depends on how you drive. I get about 12.5L/100km with all city driving in summer (better in winter), so I theoritically could get about 620km per tank, but the fuel light normally comes on at about 500km. That is a 350GT 6sp sedan.

If your right foot is a bit heavy, the economy will drop off fairly quickly.

My wife gets around 650km per tank driving her 350GT auto against rush hour traffic 5 (sometimes 6) days a week whilst running the aircon full time. Sounds like you might be just a little heavy of the loud pedal, the car is badly in need of a tune, or both. We always run 98ron fuel, never 95 or 91. When I picked up the car from NSW and drove it back to QLD I got 800km!
