Spotted a silver v35 coupe on the corner of logan & padstow road this afternoon. I was in the wifes white 300gt sedan.

Might have been me.... was running around fixing a friend's pc. Was it 1-2 or later I was out that way twice.

Personalised plates matching the car's colour? (don't post the details)

Yep was probably me. I was in the lane to turn right onto Padstow.... Did a u-turn though. Note to self... turn off VDC before snapping into second, it stops the "No you don't" light.

Sorry mate I usually have a keen eye out for v35's. Was showing off as it was his first time in one. I am trying to convert him from the ways of the "dunny door". :thumbsup: Now that I know you are in the area I'll look out for you. Would have spotted the blue one in your sig for sure.

I saw a silver coupe today on the princess hwy around 4-5pm heading towards sutherland coming from the w'gong area . It looked standard , wheels , etc . I was wondering why all the back quarter windows are very dark tint and the front windows have no tint. Why dont people tint the front windows to match the back or go as legal as you can go all around. To me it looks like people started tinting the windows and ran out of money !

Thats called the factory privacy glass which is tinted in Japan and found on most imports nowadays.

It is indeed the factory privacy glass. Come standard in most mid-upper levell Japanese built cars.

We have that factory privacy glass on our RAV4 Cruiser (they're not installed on the basic CV, only on Cruiser and Cruiser-L with leather),

and of course on the V35 350GT premium.

In Japan it is illegal to tint the front windows even the slightest tint is illegal,

and therefore the privacy glass is only applied to the rear windows and windscreen.

You don't see them on locally built Toyotas like Camry or Aurion of course... because Australia don't have such rule.

Not my car, but thats the way thats the factory did it in Japan. Mine arrived like that also, but then i tinted the front ones. Heaps of Jap (and I am sure others too) cars have rear windows really tinted as standard, while front ones not so. Safety reasons I guess.

      R34 Skyline climate control unit transistor

      By dbm7 · Posted

      Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

      Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily.

      Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
