ahh no bad feeling! Maxima is nice!

no no no no....it has nothing to do with a Maxima as such..(don't get all touchy!..lol! :) )

.....it's that they wrongly but adamantly believe it......

I think it's just a stir anyway!

  • 2 weeks later...

first few months I got mine.. Compliments everywhere.."f**king nice car mate .." thumbs up all the time. One time this guy stared so hard he nearly ran into the set of light ..his missus nearly slapped the shit out of him LOL..

Have heard 350z, GTR,. One guy at the servo said it looked like a sports C class at the front--I can can see that. !Most people commented on how much they liked the colour--lakeshore blue.

Hey guys, i got the same thing, people asking was it a Maxima, but that was when it was stock. But on the other hand, someone actually thought it might of been a four door Porsche, they mustn't really know their cars well, haha.

Anyway, heres a comparison of the V35 sedan and the Maxima, looks different enough to me

hehe i get alot of Porshe and 350z also...

^ it does look identical for 2 seconds to me. (i do not mean to offend anyone)

WTF? How dare you say it looks like a Maxima, I am offended, I challenge you to a duel! haha

well id have to admit that a Joe falcadoore driver would think that a V35 4 door would look like a new maxima due to their lack of knowledge

Yeah, theres a lot of those around. When I first got my Soarer in 2002, some dude asked me if it was a new monaro, I guess the griffin badge kind of looked like the Holden lion

Someone has said my V35 is a 350z LOL idiots

I reckon it's more a 350Z than the Maxima!......I also reckon that those who say it looks like a 350Z are taking more of an edumicated guess, than the shit stirrer's saying Maxima!

oh yeah...I'm Finally home from hospital!!!...I'm so farking sore, but happy!

Anyone notice that a lot more older people check out your V35? im 24 myself

I mean sure it gets plenty of looks from the 15 to 30 yr old age group, but I seem to have a lot more in the 40 to 60 year old age group coming up and asking me about what it is or checking it out as I drive by

Absolutely !- Most of guys who stopped to talk about the car were older than 40.And the guys who really loved it > over 50. Plenty of young guys too--mostly wanting a run though or justing curious how quick it was. From their line of questioning .I sensed most young blokes werent quite as interested in the style as the older guys.

Note also many younger guys who are into cars -18-24- think they are way too cool to be seen to be interested in your car..you know the whole attitude thing - Whereas the older dudes are a bit more personable.

The V35 is a more 'grown-up' skyline than its predecessor... it's styling would have to consider the existing trend in design plus considering that the loyal skyline owners who might have been in their 20s when they bought their first R32 back in the 1989-1993 would have been around mid 30s when V35 is released in the 21st Century... it would not be weird that 30-40 something people will find the styling very tasteful, and younger 18-25 find it lack the interest as they would want something with a turbo or lightweight car to fang around town... (I mean that's what Suzuki Swift are for...)

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
