Cheers Andrew! Thanks for the offer :) I'm pretty sure he's organizing it interstate I think but if he does it here I'll let you know!

All 4 wheels are on now and I am fairly happy with the result, Rears do tuck in a fair bit but after all they where brought for my old maxima. Might look at lowering it onto 350z springs next and then might consider buying a new set of wheels to fit the car a bit better.P4110925_zps692ce8f3.jpg

^^ I look forward to selling you a Urethane Nismo front bumper bar very soon when you break your lip and rip your stock bar off :) .... the low life sucks without Urethane - I bend and scrape mine all the time and it just pops back into shape :) :) :)

Hi guys, one of my mates wants to get a V35 as well seeing mine. We went to Nagoya motors near Sutherland, NSW and saw quite a few V35s in different colors. I was surprised at the price as it seemed too low for the low kilometers. Most of them had around 40k-50k kms, where as I got my V35 a few weeks back from a different dealer but reliable and who i personally know, a few grand pricier with much higher kms (80k) with genuine japanese documents. (although mine did come with HID xenon lights and Fujitsubu performance exhaust). My understanding was that cars with such low kms would be quite expensive and not definitely $15k-$16k. Prestige imports who only import cars on order basis (they only collect the agency fee, everything else is paid by buyer) told me that genuine cars with such low KMs would cost higher in the auction and as a result the final price paid in Australia would be much higher. I wonder if those cars at Nagoya motors are clocked back.

I had a similar experience when shopping around for my V36. Some incredibly low kms (27,000 in one instance), but no paperwork to prove the veracity of the claims. I became wary, especially after reading about how common this 'winding back' of kms is. Finally found Road & Track in Silverwater, Sydney. The manager there, Gavin, only sells cars with all of the relevant Japanese paperwork. Provides much more comfort when laying out a significant sum of money!

    • That's actually encouraging to be honest. my motor was rebuild many years ago but it's probably done less than 30,000kms and fucc all limiter or drift, majority street / drag / roll racing. It'll be fine 💪🏼 I don't even have lines or a can for the cam breathers installed yet, there is zero oil residue or splatter on or around them, it drives beautifully so it seems healthy. Just a ticky lifter, yet they're almost brand new oem genuine Nissan and haven't done many kms at all...
    • Have you confirmed the throttle body goes to WOT (and stays there) during the run?
    • I'm having a problem. I think it was mentioned above somewhere but can't see it.  I'm stuck in the cycle of, sand, filler, low spot again, put filler, sand, low spot again, now i put filler again and a thicker portion which seems to have helped but I got low spots in other areas. In the image. Circled in red thats where the original low spot was and the shape is the same as the red out line. I've more or less fixed that (still low spot up the top but now I have low spots where the green circled part is.  Is likely the issue that I didn't start with a course sand paper? I sanded the filler with 240 to reduce the risk of not going to far but maybe the issue is that I'm only taking off enough material to remove some of the filler but not the high spots. I now started sanding with 120 and I think I'm seeing a difference. I did fix one dent the other 2 are f**ked and seems like I made another low spot which is indicated by the furthest green circle on the left handside. Any thoughts and solutions?   Also second image. All of these rock chips, can they be filled in with primer or do i need to fill them all with filler/putty? So many rock chips on mine lol.
    • Well, I had an Edward Lee's special edition odo windback car/motor with a RB25DET S2 and I put down 372kW with a good amount of track abuse for 1.5 years before the ring lands decided it didn't want to stick around anymore 🥲 But probably didn't help I kept on smashing try limiter on the track and a few skid pans.
    • That is correct,  I have a forged RB25/30det NEO hiding away safely and I wanted to use the very rare greddy vct adj cam gear on this new setup and so I just used the whole thing on my s1 instead of pulling it appear because I'm lazy af 😅🤌🏼
