The coupe would have been me :) Were you in the sedan behind me?

Also spotted a white coupe in Ferntree Gully around 10 minutes earlier.

Yep that was me, and I just come from home in FTG too.

I still love my car but every time I drive next to a coupe I wish I'd "saved" (borrowed) another few K!

Yep, in the four months since getting mine the number on the road, at least in my area has at least tripled. I think I will kind of miss people asking me what kind of car it is.

it has a lot to do with the fact that you get a great car for 20k!

if you ever drive past any jap import car yard, you see about five V35s sitting there ready to be sold

supply and demand, i guess....

v36 FTW

Yeah I see a few a day sometimes more. Many young japanese, korean, chinese guys around Strathfield are driving them now. I wave or honk not too many respond.

Also dealers on parramatta rd homebush are bringing more in. I saw a lakeshore blue coupe like mine last week just outside the Honda dealar there.

I reckon I see as much V's as any other Nissan these days. Good to see so many around, but at the same time I agree that they are loosing their exclusivity.

Had a white V35 coupe pull up next to me on Princes Hwy near Fountain Gate SC, heard your mate in the passenger seat say something along the lines of "wow, a V36". Made me stare at you then you both looked away, chuckled to myself. Anyone on here? I just smirked back and gave a thumbs up, got the same in return.

Also keep spotting a silver V35 sedan driving down Frawley Rd in Hallam near the Hallam-Belgrave Rd intersection. Last saw it yesterday around 10:30am. Sometimes see it in the Aurion, other times the V36.

Think I know where it lives too, but won't publish that here :) I usually don't like the V35 sedans, but this one looks pretty good.

i live in strathfield! and there are about 10 in this area alone. it's a popular car for young asian males.

I know where they are coming from.

but yeah, not exclusive any more :down:

also, nissan are bringing in the Infiniti into aus in 2012/2013 so there goes the v36...

    • Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action
    • Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand. 
    • Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!
    • I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
