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!

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
