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.

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 :thumbsup:

Cheers,

Sam

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

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!

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By silviaz · Posted

      Yeah been doing it in an x shape. Do you reckon it's worth putting guide coat early where the filler isn't sanded down completely smooth? Reason I ask is because as I'm sanding it one part might be level which I don't need to sand anymore but the other part might be high so I can just focus on that instead of sanding across the whole repair area. I wonder if the putty is too thin, though the area is almost completely smooth before I do it as I've already put filler prior.

      Complex conex, sand in X shape. And don't go hardcore. I find putting on filler to be the art here to help.

      R32 GTR Limp Mode?

      By Nydt · Posted

      Hey y'all, I have a completely stock 1991 R32 GTR, yesterday I took my car out and went for about a thirty minute drive. It was fine on the way there but when returning home I think the car might have gone into a limp mode. I was cruising in 5th gear around 130km/h, the hicas light came on and there was a significant loss of power. About a minute later I hear a thump, the car starts driving normal again and is fine the rest of the drive back. This is the second time its happened, same as now it was fine on the trip there. On the way back it had the hicas light on but that time I would feel the power going in and out before hearing the same thump and it being fine.  I have no idea idea what causing this, but if anyone has any ideas it would be great as a start chasing the cause of this. Also I can provide more details if needed. Thank you

      When sanding across a convex panel, you need to sand, as much as possible, at right angles to the curve. If the panel is compound convex curved (ie curved in both directions) then you are SOL and have to use "craftsmanship" to get it right.
