rebadge would be my pick. there are a LOT of G35s running around. I have a black '06 downstairs now :banana: that is done in that fashion.

(why must nissan make 10 different versions of the same car!!! )

I really don't like debadged V35's. To me it kinda takes away a little of the "classiness" of the car.

I also think that the Nissan badging, especially the "350GT" give the car presence.

And I'm not a fan of the Infiniti badging at all. Would take 350GT on my car over G35 any day of the week!

Was gonna say, that's my 2c, but there's a least 10c worth of opinion there :-)

Okay Guys and Gals

I removed the Skyline badges and will try this for a while. I can always remove more later if I want. ;)

First of all I used Colgate Dental floss (the plastic Lid was perfect for scraping the goo after the badges came off)

Then I used Polyglaze bug and tar removed. 3 minutes and two applications later (minimal rubbing) and the goo was all gone :D

And last of all, always have a helper

      The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!

      I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.

      Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.

      I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
