Looking good Am, like its crouching. Any trouble fitting/blended them in?

Always loved JDM James' G35 (if I'm honest, the hood was not to my taste), now that thing had some flares on it...

They fit pretty nice. The front bumper side marker light gets in the way. Other than that, not bad at all.
JDMJames had a nice ride. Someone else owns it now. I always have to try something different. I wasn't willing to cut up my stock fenders (especially the rear) for $200 riveted on fender flares that can't be undone.

Chris your car is beyond awesome.

Question-

Why haven't you upgraded to projector headlights?

Dont thinknit will fit in with the style hes going for. 380RS fender flares....thats an awesome idea!

Thanks! I do really enjoy how the reflector lights blend in with the paint. The projectors just seem to be so "bright" with their chrome finish.

I am running a cup kit that is custom fitted to my coilovers.

Thanks again :) Always enjoy seeing VQ's from across the world and sharing mine with you guys!

For anyone that hasn't seen my thread on the V35 front page (I know I almost never check it) - anyone after a Urethane Nismo copy front bumper? I remember a while back when I discussed bringing some in a few people wanted them.

Hey mate nice 300 but if you plan to go lower than that i would remover the mudspats behind the front wheels as they will hit on bumpa and coming out of driveways and what not and breaking other parts. What are the wheel and tire specs?

Almost there ... !!! :X :X :X

Woah!! Dat ride height!!!!! Persobally i would have put coilovers in first before wheels and all that cosmetic stuff that does nothing for performance. Enjoy running spacers on those wheels when coilovers go in!

Lol yeah, it's chillin out up there so it doesn't get stepped on!

Got the other side halfway done. It's at a different angle than the drivers side. Just still trying to get a feel for how I want to place them. Still have a lot of cutting to do on them.

New wheels are behind schedule... still about 3 weeks away from being done :verymad: Were supposed to be done by now!

The Gram Lights are being passed around. No owner has kept them longer than a month. They're getting beat up, I'm sure... sad story...

Going with a real classic wheel next, but haven't seen any V35's or Z33's when them yet! So it'll be interesting! I'll post up pics as soon as they are done getting made!

    • Update all   thanks to the workshop manual, it lead me back to checking fuses as mentioned central locking and door open lights worked when acc was switched on. diagram attached shows two points of power 1. ACC and 2.  Batt with the later being fused (#28) I did check the fuses using a multimeter but I must have stuffed that up also. Went back and checked the batt fuse in interior fuse box and you wouldn’t believe it… a blown fuse. replaced fuse and everything is now working as it should including the climate control   thank you all with your positive insight and knowledge.    
    • Where is the warning "That this thread is super old"   I just went into a 5 year old thread, went to do a reply, and couldn't see anywhere obvious a warning of it being super old
    • Duncan is correct. Pitwork (and Toyota's own cheap brand "Drive Joy") were primarily created as brands to sell other manufacturers car parts. It would be weird if Nissan sold parts for Toyota vehicles with a Nissan logo on it, so they created Pitwork to sell parts for other brans Toyota, Honda etc. They are not the same as Nissan genuine parts, although they *do* meet Nissan's standards for replacement parts. They aren't supposed to be a substitute for genuine parts, but a cheaper alternative that is better than Ebay fake parts from you-know-where.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, much easier to work with it now it's free!  
    • I _think_ that one has a christmas tree or some other retainer spike into a hole in that panel under it. Come in under it with thin scredrivers and just pry it gently up. If you rip the ears off the retainer pin....so what? Just stick it back down after with a bit of race tape and carry on with life.
