his is different. unless carwings has bee cracked that one will be a no go.

Hi Chis

I have been advised that this system may be a possibility. I understand that the system has been coverted on the V35 up to 11/2005.

We are looking at a July / August time line for the conversion. I will keep you posted on the progress.

Cheers

Andy

Say hi to V-SPOT for me will ya :D For those of you who frequent G35driver you will know where I got this from...

Lowered 1" all round with a set of 350z struts and springs

Before:

After fitting Z suspension:

The Z suspension has made for a slightly firmer ride while maintaining comfort...body roll has been greatly diminished...feels great! Cheapest suspension mod I've done by far on any of my cars..Now does anyone know how to remove that damn piece of black plastic bumper protector just below the front bar? Its scraping everytime I roll out of my driveway.

Wheels next...watch this space :ermm:

Pretty sure chrome exterior comes standard.

Nice ride NISMO, so clean and sleek. Thinking of putting that zymol stuff on my car. Also thinking of the permagard ($$$$) so I don't ever have to do it again!

Where did you get the Z suspension from? I'm looking for lowered suspension that doesn't sacrifice ride comfort too much and from what you described, its the most ideal one.

Just noticed those weather shields on your windows. Take them off!!!!!

I took them off and it made my car look way better. Less old man/woman ish.

I'm a smoker and i know how convenient they are in the rain, but damn... they look so bad!

Took my stupid spoiler off too, left 5 holes on the boot. Got some rubber plugs in them but i think it still looks better.

Just my opinion though. :P

i am thinking of getting a v35 sedan too. Nice clean car.

where did you get the chrome trims around the door handle and window from?

any bodykit in future?

Pretty sure the chrome trim is factory standard.

As for bodykit...the only thing I am looking at adding is the OEM front lip and also possibly an M3 lip spoiler on the bootlid.

I way ahead of you ;) Took my drivers side one off yesterday and spent about 2 hrs trying to get all the residue off! Another 3 more to do..I also took the chrome side door protectors off over the weekend...that also took me quite a while to get the sticky stuff off :P

I got it from a workshop who recently fitted a set of coilovers to a 350z. Try looking in the 350z-tech forums under aussie classifieds. The wreckers may be a good place to search as well. If you can get a full set of suspension in good condition is definately a worthwhile suspension mod...

i heard a 350z tein s tech spring can be used for lowering. is this true? was it a better option to change over to a stock z's suspension? sorry, i am really keen of getting a sedan myself and is presently trying to pick things up before getting one.

There's not really a hard and fast rule on which combo is better. Yes the Tein S Techs are a common upgrade for the V35. I chose the Z suspension because it was available then and there, cheaper and also it was a matching shock and spring combo.

Read here for the different spring rates of various springs available:

It took me about 3 hours to take all 4 off. With the residue and other sticky stuff like glue from stickers, I use nail polish remover to get it off. Borrow some off your mum/girlfriend/sister and give it a try. Its also good for taking dry chewing gum off your jeans! :P

The NISMO S-TUNE SUSPENSION KIT as fitted to 6 Speed PV35's can be sourced from Japan Parts it is available for CPV35's and a complete NISMO suspension kit with sway bars is another option, Nissan sell a BILSTEIN SPORTS SUSPENSION KIT which is listed individually for the 3 engine sizes in the sedan, info on Spring Rates and height it drops the car is listed.

Nice! Really like the clear indicators make the car look even better than before (almost impossible) Not sure when i'm going back to the states but will keep updated, might be able to organise a group buy while i'm there, which should make a difference on our dollar being so low.

Glad your happy about your purchase, apologise again for the delay for when I got back.

Can you please supply the Part number and what year model it fitted?

I just received my Nissan Genuine Clears. Hoping to fit tomorrow night.

Part B61F0 - AM900. That is for my 2003 CPV35

I got mine of a dude in the States via Ebay $55 delivered and got here in 10 days (customs must have been slow).Don't buy the cheapies!

Edited by Data Queue

as nice as the flat ones are, i saw an '06 model the other day which had like a protruded bulge on its clear corners

anyone have the jdm part number for the '06 model clear corner lights?

    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
    • OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
