Hey guys,

I saw This floating around the net and a few resources confirm that this is not as fake as i thought it out to be at first glance.

Apprently its powered by the VQ37 (rumoured) has a shorter wheel base (4 Inch) etc etc..and is a full revamp over the current 350Z that it will replace. Looks basically like a concept 350Z but could this be like the looming pics of the 35 GT-R that came out months before specualation even bagan of a new GT-R

Anyhow heres the pic, let us know what you think of this.... Release is meant to be sometime next year. And yes i realise its not a real picture haha, but there is a spy shot of the real thing going around with the shorter wheel base, covered, but with interchangeable 350Z tail and front lamps...

gah in that it still retains alot of the 350Z styling....rats, and here i was hoping that nissan took a bold turn for the Z series. Personally i like the front of the Orange one, the more i look at it the more hot it becomes! But the link shown probs is a more reasonable and more 'likely' candidate for the next Z. When i saw the GTR Proto, i hated it, i wanted to die in a hole, but somehow betwen now and then they managed to seriously refine the R35 and with a little bit of refined taste i have come to love the design of the R35, so much so i respect the styling they chose to advance from the R34, although i think they really did try and retain most of the bodywork to that of a 350Z.

Anyhow, it made me think that Nissan is getting back on the ball with its designing. Love to see a new Silvia haha...then Nissan would complete me once again.

oh cool.. it looks like a garden leaf sucker

That'd be one sweet intercooler in there then wouldn't it :P hehe

Now that you mention it it looks very low sweeping, but yeh not a fan of the new Z's (meaning all current ones from the last decade) at all, just thought it was intresting concept to bring attention to.

no matter how much you polish a turd, it'll still look like shit.

but, nissan australia will pick it over the skyline as per usual, so I'm sure we'll see lots of shiny turd on the roads soon.

Amen to that....you know what....the other day i saw a GTR badge on a 350Z and i just cried....you know i hate those honda civics with the ricer sides and HKS everywhere n all that when they don't even have one single HKS part on their car etc...and i always want to beat the crap out of those guys (sorry to anyone that does that on here and is reading this)

But this 350Z....omfg...im suprised i restrained myself to getting out and hitting the guy, fair enough if he had an RB26 in there or something but as if!! it was dead stock VQ crap....I just hope that guy is mentally impaired and thinks hes driving a GTR....cause otherwise someone needs ot badge his car for the general public's benefit. Oh btw he comes from NSW....not Vic...not that i have anything against NSW ..half my fmaily live in sydney, just think sydney peeps have alot more whacky cars over there.

The bonnet and front guards look like a 350Z's, but the glass house and rear mimics the 240Z a lot more. The overbite fangs on the front grille I could do without, too.

What a f**king retard. But you see GT-R badges on anything and everything these days. I almost thought about hitting a guy who had GT-R badges and the GT-R rear wing on his NA R33.

it was dead stock VQ crap....

VQ > RB

The Sydney "tuning" scene (i.e. ricer scene) is a lot bigger and over the top than Melbourne's. Had some mates come up recently and see George St (our Chapel St) and they were really dismayed at how much money Sydneysiders will sink into shitbox Corollas, Excels, and other econoboxes.

      After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.

      No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
