I have noticed the car do get some slightly " knock knock " noise going over small bumps

and i thou it maybe the bushes worn out? My car has done 85k and its a 03

I have done a search on the forum but cant find anything...( but then maybe im bad at searching things )

Will looking into changing suspension soon, does anyone know if our suspension same as any other NISAAN? etc...V35 or 350Z...

I want to lower my car now for the looks maybe just the springs, anywhere that i can buy it?

Might help people if you fill in your location in your profile :D so they can suggest places close to you.

As for suspension, there was a thread started not long ago which focused on the m35 :P

What model M35 do you have, ARX, RX or RS.

Makes a big difference to the suspension options.

I would guess you can get the bushes from Nissan but there may be other options at a better cost. I guess first work out the part number.

There is a whole thread on the suspension options.

The Swaybars that were made were under the Selby brand, not white line. Unfortunatly I believe they are no longer in business and I am not sure if anyone else has made the swaybars. They are definatley a big improvement in handeling. The upside is that the rear swaybar is identical to the V35/350z. The front is different.

Cheers

M35 suspension is different.

You can get springs from Pedders. They will match up a set of their "sports Ryder" springs (and shocks if you want them).

If you are prepared to pay a bit more (and get a lot more) I would have a look at some aftermarket Japanese suspension kits.

These bolt straight up and the majority are adjustable so you can set you ride height :laugh:

Just pick which ones you like. There are plenty of places to order them. :(

Dolphin make sway bars. Don't know the dimensions and they cost a bomb, but they certainly make 'em!

you have an axis and you want it lowered?? i thought they were pretty low to begin with!!

Same ride height as an RS/RX, bud.

So not that low at all.

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
