a tad....a very slight tad, you'll also be surprised how smooth it is. i didnt compare the engine though. although for a $150k car it is rather dissapointing at only 200kw. but then again its a merc

They are a beautiful car. My brother-in-law has one a 2007/2008 model. Yes they are very smooth, but comapred to the V36s they are underpowered.

how much the v36 sedans worth if u buy local or would they be cheaper to import?

In Perth from dealer, you can get a decent sedan from $35k-$49k which is cheaper than coupe. I think you save about $4k-$5k if you import it yourself, not too sure.

They are really nice car, inside and out. But I don't think it is too good with resale.

Some of mine from the Extreme Horsepower show here in Adelaide last weekend .... and I picked up the "Highest horsepower 6cyl n/a" trophy for my 148.6rwkw dyno run.

^^^ and I should add that the V35 is my daily/work car (I am a property valuer) and I did a 750km round trip from Adelaide to Marion Bay and back (including 100km of dirt roads) the day before the above photos were taken :D .... and did a similar Yorke Peninsular trip the week before covering just under 650km round trip. Amazingly comfortable car to drive and handles the nasty country roads at 120km/h with ease.

im pretty sure thats a low reading...some boys here are running 155-165 rwkw stock...i swore i saw heaps of thread before.... :)

Andrew ur car looks sweet man. Props. I like that little trunk lip spoiler u got going der, wer u get it from?

Aslo yes have to agreee that that dyno reading seems bit low. Heard most stocks are round the 160 rwkw mark. Have u got any performance mods?

I got the rear lip spoiler off USA Ebay - cheap as chips and painted the KH3 proper factory colour

Regarding the power, there are dynos, and there are dynos. At Willall Racing, which has a Mainline dyno and is know to be conservative, I made 146rwkw 6 months ago. Then on the weekend on another Mainline dyno at the show I made 148.6. Most dyno is Aus are Dyno Dynamics, and are known to be a bit generous with their readings. There is also a ramp up and Z factor that the operator uses when dynoing a car, and if these are not absolutely identical from dyno to dyno then the figures will be different. You really need to have car on the same dyno on the the same day to compare cars. when we recently had a dyno day at Willalls some of the guys making decent power in their R32GTRs (350rwkw) were varying by up to 30rwkw between the dyno the car was tuned on (DD) and Willalls dyno (Mainline).

My mechanical mods comprise a stainless Greddy copy axle back exhaust, HKS panel filter, Carbon fibre Z-Tube and that is all, so she is pretty stock. Am fitting a Kinetix plenum cover and polishing my upper collector shortly, then will get rid of the very restricive centre muffler and fit a Y-pipe I have in the garage waiting to go on.

I really want to get another V35 on the dyno the same day as mine, and will arrange that in the near future for reference.

I also noted on my dyno printout that my afrs went down under 11.5:1 at peak power, so she is running pretty rich. I have an SAFCII sitting in the shed that I will get around to fitting in the near future to clean up the map a bit.

I might make a new thread with my dyno printout and get everyone else to put theirs up to compare. Interestingly the torque maxed out very early and fell right away as it made more power - not sure if this is normal or not.

Alrite fair enuf. Ders a thread up bout dyno results. With images of the readings and evrything. il try to find it.

Yes im after a rear lip spoiler, im getting rid of my oem one and tryn to get a boot wid a lip attached or molded. If only i was able to get hold of this one:

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
