Hi All,

Just purchased a 2012 V36 sedan and eagerly awaiting her arrival. I have a question surrounding compliance requirements in particular the need for an immobiliser, I am under the impression that given the cars age there should be some sort of factory fitted immobiliser, however whether this is to AUS std I am uncertain. Any information would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers

Josh

Greetings :action-smiley-069:, finally joined this site after checking it on-and-off after getting my White Pearl 2003 V35 Skyline Coupe 350-GT nearly a year ago. It's got the premium pack, factory Momo steering wheel and Brembos, and the original Japanese owner apparently installed a Hasemi Sport carbonfibre spoiler and bilstein shocks from a Z. Given it Nismo clear front indicators (looks so much better than stock), pulled out the Bose Deck and put a Pioneer 2DIN in (still with the 8 Bose speakers, they sound awesome as it is) and otherwise, the only work I've had to do was replace the motors for the door locks. All up, nothing but joy. Hopefully I'll have pics up soon.

What up people I'm Greaver and I have just taken delivery of my first V35

Had a red R33 Coupe which I still use for bashes to the shops so I have lurked these forums for some time but I have just taken the plunge after finding a tidy 2001 V35 with all the options for a very reasonable price that is just off 150ks

Car is meant to be for the missus but its grown on me very quickly, smooth performance and everything is really responsive (aside from he brakes, new rotors ahoy) so I am stoked.

The plan is to drop it a little on some of these when I get the time to sort the offsets (I have heard standard 350z springs give a 1 inch drop?)

But yeah nice to meet you all, I have a feeling I will get a later model for myself for my next car : )

OK Guys, good to be here as the newest of the Newbies (not that those who know me would say there's much else about me that's new). Been following the Forum since the start of the year when I bought my 7/09 GT37 sedan. Great car! Came with low kms on the clock, low 20,000's, but I'm sure 50,000 would be nearer the mark. I suspect the first owner in Japan was smart and did some clocking before having his 2 year checks, so the De-Reg Certificate generally supports the car's odo in Oz. Anyway, I want to ask for some help. I need a thoroughly reliable, honest and capable service guy in the Hawthorn/Camberwell area to keep the car up to scratch for me starting as of now. Preferably an experienced guy who has a fair sprinkling of Jap Skylines in his "stable". Any/all suggestions gratefully considered. Thanks very much, and cheers to all.

So finally received my 2012 V36, I must say very impressed with the overall feel of the vehicle, smooth yet enough kick to keep you entertained. Had the headlight chrome painted satin black leaving the shrouds chrome and twin CCFL rings installed while they were open. Also installed some swift springs which I must say retain almost all OEM ride quality while providing a subtle drop.

Here is a front shot, will post some before and after drop shots if anyone is interested....

I belive compliance is available for V36's manufactured up untill December 2012, from then Infiniti has retain sale rights within Australia, I don't believe the G37 was ever offered in Aus (may be wrong). This was an October 2012 so just snuck in with arround 10,000km it feels like its just rolled out of the show room, couldn't be happier!

the G37 was definitly sold here by Infiniti, but only the coupe and convertable, the Sedan wasn't, only the M sedan was. They have now all been replaced with the Q series, Q50 is the G37 Sedan replacement, and the Q60 is the coupe replacement. (Q70 is the M replacement).

Hi guys this is my first post.

Just bought myself a 2006 gt350 sedan and thought I'd sign up here and share.

Bought my new "family sedan" from road and track at silver water Sydney. Had it a few days and it developed a strange random surging issue that came out of nowhere. So back it went and I went home with a loan car (also a skyline). So far can't fault their service just hope they can fix the problem.

When I pick it up I'll endeavor to post some pics but would really like some advice on who to take it to for performance upgrades and mods.

Thanks guys and girls.

P.s. I'm around the hawkesbury area outside of Sydney if anyone else is local.

    • CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) has existed since the 80's. I'm looking into buying a Hummer H1 and they generally included it. 
    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
