Yes, there is nothing more heartbreaking than owning a black car - especially this time of year. They other weekend I spent a whole day washing and polishing it, and literally 2 days later it looked like it had never been washed in its entire life.

I am taking it up to Kadina on the long weekend for the annual SAU trip for the show'n'shine, and I just know that hours after I wash and polish it, it will look like crap again! *sigh*

I am thinking red or blue for the next one!

Blue looks stunning... Red is bad luck... Black is where it's at... Why so much heartbreak :(

When I first lay eyes on a V it was Black and immediately fell in love. After missing out on a few at auction, the first 2005 Lakeshore blues came up in mid 2007- I like this maybe even more than the black- they are the only 2 colours I like in standard V colours. The best thing is even after 2months of not washing it people say it looks real clean lol.Almost 8 yrs later and its still one of the best looking shape colour combos Ive owned and strangers still say it too[emoji4]

Pics or it never happened. I would like to see, said V-series.

Hi guys,

Sold my V35 and just bought V36 coupe (didn't have to wait for long). Currently waiting for shipment in Nagoya Port, ETA to Melb: 29/06. Hopefully I could have it on road before the SA Vs meet-up :cheers: ! It's a Type P with Paddle Shifters:

Sweeet :D

Love the coupes. Wish i'd got one instead lol

You sure it's not an SP? Thought the Type-P didn't come with paddles, or the 19" wheels...

Yeah it's a type P. Initially I wanted a SP ('cause of the Premium + Paddle Shifts). But came across this odd one so I decided to bid and got it (well under my budget lolz).

Who are you bringing it in through Leo? How much landed? Looks awesome btw - I am a sucker for black cars (my previous R34 was black as well)

:whistling: I think the black Q50/V36 would suit you, Andrew !! I'm doing through Iron Chef. I just paid for the FOB but my guess is around $28K landed and complied (not bad for a car with auction grade is 4.5)

    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
    • Continental have consistently beaten the absolute shit out of every other performance tyre in Wet/Damp/Cold conditions and give up a little bit of time (half a second at most) in the dry. Almost like it's engineered for German conditions or something. I'd def give those a try.
