Thanks Juan Pablo,

The track days are held every couple of months... check out www.driverdynamics.com.au. You also get a discount for being an SAU-VIC Member. There are probably other companies which do them there as well.

My aim is to have a sub 1:30 car. I need some work!

These are dealer pics of my 2004 350GT that have had for a week now having traded my Stagea - its good to be back to a Skyline again (had an R33 before the Stagea)

Awesome to drive and I love the exhaust note

Has keyless entry (the smart key thing that the Maxima and GTRs have) so no key is needed to open doors, start car, etc - kinda weird and still getting used to it.

Just got to fix the twisted seat belt and some paint marks and will be even better

Congrats on the car AL, looks clean all you need is a set of 350z springs for a sexy 1inch drop(ive got a set if your interested), wanted my parents to buy one they dont like the shape much, but really like the V36, too bad no one is doing compliance yet.

Thanks guys and enjoying it immensely - the whole keyless thing is still weird (opening car and starting it without a key doesn't feel right)

From what Fabcar have in Burswood, they have a V36 or two that they are selling - nice but not cheap

The auto box in V35 is not a bad thing, really, it's probably better than most other auto out there, so never say the word "unfortunate"...

Nice 06 model by the way... great projector lamps and those 2 round thing on your front bumper, are those optional corner cameras or are they parking sensors?

Damb son, thats one hot V. I love what you've done with the infinity badge instead of nissan badge, the infinity badge is so much cleaner and looks better. Cant wait to get my V in a few months, savin the pennies and only a few grand away, YAY.

Were those photos taken just up from flinders street in the city?

yeah, I'm lovin it... it's still quite a big improvement over my old R33 Gtst, even if the V is auto, slower & without the 230rwkw or 16psi boost fun... but the creature comfort are worth it for day to day traffic...

it originally came with infiniti boot badge, but with original skyline & 350gt badges on the boot and original nissan in the front grill.

apparently previous owner in Japan either only replaced the rear nissan badge, or kept the front infiniti badge.

I had to purchase the infiniti grill badge off the internet just to complete the logo change front to back.

my airbag still have nissan logo on it though, it needs to be replaced as a whole unit.

I did a research replacing airbag with usdm infiniti spec is not quite as straightforward,

the connector at the back could be different, plus it's quite a big job of dismantling the steering wheel to swap the thing...

So it's kind of a 'hybrid' INFINYLINE!

PS: location you better talk to tangcla, I don't wanna spoil his special location, although it could be some random alley anywhere in inner city suburbs...

But you need a place without too much street light... fairly dark... and to be honest, you don't wanna be there alone at night... a rather scary place to be ha ha... so a rotating group photo event with limited number of cars/people is better & safer for everyone...

    • New R34 owned here (from the US) and found a gem, '98 GTT with ~6k miles, super clean & completely stock. When shifting there's no grinding, shifts smooth, etc. The concern I have are 2 things: 1) Only in 2nd and 3rd... when maintaining a slower speed (in traffic as an example) as I let off/on the gas, the shifter will slightly move and vibrate. If the clutch is engaged, none of this happens. It's not bad, but enough to feel like something isn't necessarily right. 2) This mainly happen in 4th or 5th... the shifter slightly bounces up and down, almost like it's riding on unbalanced tires (and I do think the tires are unbalanced as I get a little of that bounce feel at higher speeds, which is maybe why it only happens in 4th/5th). Lastly, and sorry for this noob question but I want to work on this car myself, can someone teach me some on these manual transmissions? Like servicing them, best products to use, etc.; would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!
    • Coilovers aren't even the first step. Bushes, subframe position and alignment, HICAS elimination, adjustable upper arms and traction arms in order to dial out understeer. All these things need/deserve attention first. ARBs (There's no such thing as a swaybar. Please, everybody, stop calling them that) are useful if you want to limit spring stiffness. Otherwise you can control body roll with springs. Spring and damper rates are a function of road surface, speed and usage. There is no solution that works for all cases.
    • Define "nothing". Is the starter spinning but not the engine? Engine turning but not firing? If the engine is turning but not firing, then you are missing either fuel or spark. You need to find whichever has gone missing.
    • Shitbox Tiguan updates, got the APR OTS tune put back on (no charge for it to be removed/added back), didn't want to just come in just for that (not a fan of wasting people's time for nothing) so I purchased an APR dog bone insert. The boys at German Performance Garage said they would fit it for free too since they had 1x hoist free. Now that's service you don't normally get from most workshops. Anyhow, tune back on, snow grate pulled out, dog bone insert back in and not going to lie, a few smiles when I nailed it around the industrial area heading back onto the M7. Amayama also said 1 to 2.5 month wait for the RB25DE heater hose, yeah why not, car has been off the road for nearly 3, what's a other 2.5?
    • Hmm I'm going to approach this from the other side... What is the car doing that you don't like or what would you like the car to do that is currently isn't doing (handling wise that is)
