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 nice idea, you mean to suction it to the gauges? I hadn't thought of that.
    • A few suggestions: Do you have the option of retarding your exhaust cam gear to bring the power band over to the left? VCT would be turned off after you make peak torque, you see the power/torque will decay faster with it left on all the way to the limiter Once VCT is turned off, you'll find the motor will take a bit more timing being ramped in Send its mum, more boost! Of course, depends on your exhaust pressure.

    • I was back on the dyno again yesterday after completely revamping my methanol injection system. I was making 440kw at 19psi. Great, this is more then I was making last summer with my old meth system at that pressure, and I figured it would be smooth sailing up to 30+psi. We continued increasing from there and by 25psi, I had only hit 455kw. Dyno sadly lost utility power at this point and I left. We seemed to be on course to hit the same power wall as last summer (477kw@27psi). This is a built RB25 S1 stroked to a 2.8. Built and ported head with Kelford 272/262 cams. Precision 6466 Turbo. Tuner last year believed the power wall is a mix of RPM limitations (Hydro lifters/Limit set at 7600RPM) and fueling. With my new meth system, we're seeing zero knock now but it still won't go up.  What else can I do at this point? Here's my train of thought.  - It's clear from the dyno graph that I would easily make power to 8500+RPM but I'm limited to 7600RPM. I could risk increasing my limiter, but hydro lifters have me worried. What are my options here besides going NEO head or solid lifter conversion? I'm rocking a 1.05AR turbine on my 6466. Would dropping down to a .84 help shift that power down in anyway? - We're only seeing roughly a 30kw difference at the top end with VCT on or off. Is this normal? I want to confirm VCT is working properly. - Should I look into other cam options?  - Should I just keep increasing boost and see if she wakes up later on? I would expect to hit 600rwkw around 35psi with my 6466.
