hey all,

new to the forum.. Loving the boomin V35 scene!

I've had my V for a couple months now, (very few things done to it, intake / gialla style grille / debaged) currently saving either for exhaust / wheels.. haven't QUITE decided yet.. lol here's a couple pics for now.

apologies for bad quality.. photos taken on phone.

Welcome to SAU, Josh.

ELFGT350 >>>>>>Thats hot buddy !. What wheel sizes you running- I like the back dish. Good to see some fine lakeshore blues (like mine) getting around now.

I must have had one of the first few 05's in Syd four years ago

VNS 24>>>Nice wheels there. Vertini Hennessey wheels looks classy, along with Lakeshore Blue coupe.

Hey Guys thanks for showing my car some shonu love.....the wheels are 19 and the front 19 x 8.5 = 255 30 19 and the rear the 19 9.5 = 275 30 19 Nitto tires drop with some King Springs

Hey Guys lets all meet up before it gets to cold....

We can invite the other liners and the Z-Group.

What do you guys think.

Cool B, Geez-she must be riding low to run 30's on 19".

I'm free as I aint working atm. Agree we have to make use of the remaining sunshine. Maybe meet somewhere like Brighton/ramsgate & cruise on down to Woollongong beach..Can get a few V's in the car park there and the ocean makes a nice backdrop for any photos. Any suggestions welcome..other than f/off.! ..lol

Welcome back, Fox.

Black GT-C are the treat. :action-smiley-069: If you don't mind me asking, how did you get hold of Infiniti brakes?

There is a guy from SA selling a pair of the front Akebonos - PM mr_rbman

Slightly off topic, I didn't know where else to post it, and thought it must of been noted before, but is that a v35 coupe on the Maguires bottle?

Yep, and the same black coupe features on the Tech Wax 2.0 - part of the reason I bought it (since I own a black one) :)

Thanks, Andrew.

I will keep him in mind if I get to upgrade my brakes one day. :)

Actually, sorry I told you the wrong user - it is actually M I K E

Nice on there, Adam. :thumbsup:

Good thing about V35's is it already look good from factory, plus with the aftermarket wheels and lowered really set it off.

    • Wow ELVIS. You have an....interesting approach to conversation. Did you not notice that I wasn't talking to you?
    • Hello Liam - HA - somewhere in flies - possibly I have an update, but I have been so busy, projects have taken a back seat to getting business back on track.  I will let you know the outcome, but I think I am going to go for the 8HP,  CHEERS.  ELVIS
    • Thanks Joshuaho96, yes - as someone else also suggested, the 8HP seems the 'smart choice' - HA - and ZERO to do with cost, but I am sure 8 speeds will be better than 6 speeds - HA - maybe.  I will purchase a new 8HP,  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Nobody said anything about getting a "...cheap Falcon box..."- it was JUST a question about a specific transmission.  And YOU may have a problem with not enough $ - HA - I do NOT - so please keep your comments like you are some financial guru to yourself.  BUT - much appreciated re the cost of a new 8HP and I twill probably be the way I go.  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Most people I know in the BMW world are swapping 6HPs for 8HPs. The 6HP has a big issue with one of the clutch drum bushings wearing out shockingly early which leads to them going into limp mode going into 5th/6th gear as the oil pressure loss from the worn bushing causes clutch slip. Even with the adaptations in shifting the TCU can't bump line pressure enough to keep the clutches from slipping and burning. I've personally looked at a 335d with 6HP28 with one owner and ~90k miles on it and the transmission adaptations were way out of spec and even though it nominally drove ok I'm confident it would have needed a full rebuild sooner than later. Other than that they're fine, but the 8HP doesn't really have weird issues like this to my knowledge and they're in everything these days so pulling them out of crashed cars isn't too hard.
