Well after thinking about it for a while, I've decided to sell the V35.

Absolutely love the car, but looking to drop the home loan a little quicker.

Here's the link to the for sale thread. Drop me a PM if anyone's interested.

I have met with Bobby previously and anyone looking to get into a 35 should put this one at the top of their list. The car is in fantastic condition, very well cared for, by an owner who actually cares about the car. This is everything you want.

Best of luck Bobby!

Cheers mate.

Appreciate the kind words. Don't make it too easy for someone to buy it :-)

I've been looking at G35.Driver a bit and starting to have second thoughts, as i can picture a nice Top Secret front bar on the car and a turbo kit to match :-)

Oh, and where are the pics of the car with the wheels?

interesting to see you selling

especially since you just sold your other one to get this one!

there's nothing more behind the sale?

is it not meeting your needs as a daily or something?

i must say, its a very nice example of a V35..

Hey Waz,

Nothing more to it at all mate. I actually love the V35's and as said am in no rush to sell and really have no problem in keeping it. As a daily it's great. I have 2 young boys and the car can easily serve a family of 4, even when we head down the coast and fill it with toys.

At the end of the day, I have a young family and have just finsihed building my second new house, which has gone slightly over budget.

Putting on my reponsible long term hat, the money would simply be better spent on the loan rather than being tied up in the car.

I'm still a car freak at heart and will either move to a cheaper car like a neat 32 GTR for weekends only, or potentially a track only car.

SOLD!

Well, as of today I am officially V35-less.

Thought i would handle it ok, but pretty sad watching it head down the street for the last time.

Tomorrow I'm going to get my nuts removed, and will then buy a Mirage or something to go to and from work.

Sad to hear, but it's all for a good cause...

Mirage's a fun little car... not all that bad. Taking advantage of Mitsubishi's usually huge depreciation value you should be able to find something in good condition for a great price!

surprising you sold it so quick?

Hey Bobby

I feel for you. Everytime I part ways with a car I used to own, it feels like heart wrench. But looking after the family is important.

Hope you'll stay around in the forums; I'm sure everybody agrees that it wouldn't be the same without you.

Thanks Guys,

Being such a nice car it was definitely sad. The new owner was really wrapped so that was good. I've never seen someone smile so much when handing over large sums of cash :-)

I'll definitely be around, no plans on going anywhere. Have started the search for a weekend only GTR so won't be out of a Skyline for long.

Rianto, it sold sought of quick. It was just a matter of waiting for the right buyer.

With the TE37's on I sold it for around $40k.

Which i think was pretty good for an 04 with 60k's. It's why i tell people not to rush it unless your desperate, and hold your price.

My auto non premium, in 100% stock condition also sold for $40k last November.

It helps to though that both were genuine, very well looked after cars.

Gotta say, they're not the easiest car to sell, but at the same time, those interested know what they want, and have usually done a bit of reaserch on the car.

So whne they find a good example, they usually know it.

Mark, I made $6k on my auto :-), and lost a couple on the 6MT, considering i changed the clutch and stuff. But overall came out on top if you look at both cars.

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
