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!

    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
