brembo brakes apparently were an option in the sports range so fourth... couldve/ve been added in mine but previous jap owner was too cheap to option it in. so basically no brembo and no sunroof =( also ill have to get everything converted to english and aus spec...dvd/nav/mp3/dvd screen/buttons etc will be looking at $3k range. my eyes are now on the 350z forum for brembos =) but then again the ones on it atm works really good compared to my pevious r33 with dba 4000series and track pads.

i agree that blue/balck are the best colours for v35s. nope just for 1-2days...car has been sitting at dealer for almost a year so must be some others... car is less than 20k kms so still new and clean. has been lowered will post up some pics tonight.

cheers.

personally 7 GTA defeats the purpose of evo which is track weapon

v35 offers no where near the performance but is such an amazingly well built and appointed car its just a pleasure to drive every time I get in one

dont get hung up on the brembos , they are quite small , smaller than gtr brembos . while a big improvement on the non brembo v35 brakes I still find them a bit too small for serious work . good option if your v35 has them , dont fret too much if it doesnt .

long story short . v35 .

i get what you mean. i get the same feeling everytime now. like i said its more of luxury/sports machine then track race bred and yes the stock brakes are really good they stop almost instantly...glued.

anyway here are a few pics i managed to get today...car has not been washed etc. willl get her cleaned and service shortly. has been lowered with sick rims. anyway when i get good shots ill post in photo area. thanks for everyones input and if you have the money purchase one its worth every penny...enjoy

So what didn't you like about the evo 7?

I was thinking of getting a evo 6 or 6.5 for my wife. I thought they were an all round good car?

rob

ok an update...although i made the mistake of the evo 7....just not my liking ive finally got my baby. shes a lot of fun i must admit and pure luxury sports the sound of the vq35de is fabulous.

a lil glimpse as i had no time for perfect shot will update in the photo section.

now just waiting for my sau sticker to arrive =)

richard.

gday mate, honestly theres nothing worng with evos...basically i was over the excessive exhaust noise...bov...turbo etc...wanted a more luxury comfort ride but at the same time fast. you might not understand until you sit in one (v35) interior, exterior over i would say over rates the evos but its a big NO to performance. the evo 7gta goes around corners like there are rails on it.

its more pimpin :cheers: . at night the led tail lights looks outstanding and with the twin exhuast it finishes the whole car up making it look a little mighty grunt. cant wait for the carbon fibre kit!

its the magority ruining it for the minority, retards with big dardy heavy v8 comdomadors which r not made for ripping through corners and high speeds r the main reason y the ff**ked up law might come in. besides ill just take me P's down :P. try stop me THEN!!!

hey man i bought c-reds v35 and its awsome cheap buy for me with all those mods and with a supercharger it goes too :P very feul efficent looks great has good handeling and very roomy in the back seats hope hat helps with your choice mate

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
