Seeing as these v35's arent that common, it is rarer to find someone who has worked on these cars a lot and so was wondering if you're in brisbane - can you give me your contact for the guy you trust to service your beloved v35. Have been recommend by a few to try GT Auto Garage at Newmarket, they look promising but also expensive. They're also moving away from using Motul oil, and standing behind Redline - anyone heard of this?

Would be great to get a short list of recommendations...

carmen imports. craig does servicing and compliance . he also owns a few of these himself. wife drives a M35 stagea ARX.

Thanks chris, will check out their website of they have one. BTW, want to have you look at my v35 in the not too distant future about the fm expander - want to get my 106.9 station going.

anyone else have other places they take their v35 to?

any places in south side of Brisbane, done like to drive to brendale for a service, that a 30 minute drive for me

I'm looking to get a 2003 model 350GT 2 door coupe auto/triptronic and unfortunately one of the main factors involved in buying is where to get it serviced. I work on the southside of brisbane - somewhere close to there that could service the car would be ideal. What about a workshop/mechanic that say they can service a 350Z? From what I have read they share alot of similar parts and have the same engine etc.

What about on the goldcoast for servicing? I usually do it all myself but i got third party warranty when i brought the car (anyone know the ins and outs with these warranty things? What can you do yourself and still be covered, what must be done by a mechanic?) THanks

i used K&G Automotive Servicing in Underwood 38083321 after someone on this forum recommended them. in teh 10 years iv been driving, best experience iv ever had with a workshop doing a service for me. highly recommended.. ill be booking in there again for my next serve in a few weeks time.

I've used Luke at Auto Co Mechanical/LPG (Woolloongabba) 3891 2511 - I have great respect and trust in him with my car.

I've also used Chris at Doug Maurer Motor Repairs (Tweed Heads) 55366 663 - is pretty cluey on imports in general, which is a bonus and always has time for you, very patient!

    • BRUH, one of the biggest mistakes of my life..... and i've had plenty ;[)
    • @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
