I didn't know that they came standard or an option on the M35's - I know the C34's never had them

the only thing I heard about cruise control on the M35 was that Chris Rogers was installing a aftermarket system in a M35 and needed a M35 to be a test mule

I have factory cruise and the radar sits just under the front grill. It works really well even when you are following a car and it slows down in front to a stop. The computer puts my brakes on and nearly stops the car. The only thing i hate about the inteligence is that if a car pulls in front of you your car slows down and it takes a while to pick up again depending on the distance set

Nagoya Motors had a blue RS with factory cruise....

Would have been perfect if it had been fitted on my AR-X. And because of my Momo steering wheel, I cannot use Chris' solution.. Buttons won't fit...

Need cruise... if only to improve the fuel consumption..

A mate of mine is about to buy an ARX with Cruise along with just about every other conceivable option.

Will be quite cool to play with it.

It will be interesting to see how it keeps the car at highway speed as I find that the car can be a little surgy on cruise.

When you look at the grill the radar is in the centre of the grill in shield like shape getting narrow at the bottom and is a dark colour. The Nissan badge sits on top of the radar pannel.

I have seen a few of them here but they are rare.

After doing s few stints on country highways, I decided that cruise is a good thing to have, especially when my good old 350 had cruise and it was the best device to use compared to other cars i've tried. So I take it that the Stag cruise should be cool to use with that added radar at the front to sense cars ahead.

Yes I know it doesnt look too good but shit is it useful to have sometimes.

Andy, when is your mate getting his Stag? I wouldnt mind checking out his car and all the options as I'm going to buy another one from Japan asap.

eugene the factory cruise cant be installed onto one that didnt get it from factory. which sucks.........

but i agree it would be awesome to have :D

Hey Iain yes I know you cant install it, that's why I mentioned that i'm going to look for another car in Japan and sell my one.

easy. fly me down hand $900 + plane ticekt and you'll have OEM style cruise that DOES NOT surge.

the mule car I did finalised the cruise cal for my unit and it works a treat.

you didn't mention where you were but if its in a major city there's a good chance I can send you to a shop and get it fitted.

stuff getting a OEM car with it - waste of money when you have a car already that runs fine.

Yo Chris thanks for the offer. Can u give me more info on it. The aftermarket kits I've seen around I'm not too impressed with, but if yours is good and works better, I will take you up on it. I've got a lot of time off work so can come around to you down south( I think that's where you were last time here in syd)

find the user MILLOS on here. he had one doen by me yesterday. same setup that will go into yours.

in short its a driveby wire unit spec'd by me to work with these cars. it uses the OEM V35 buttons to get the controls onthe wheel and from there looks stock.

feel wise you wont notice it kick in and it works like any other cruise int hat respect.

to date I haev done 30+ of them without hassle..

if you want real feedback on them pop a question up inthe V35 area for the NEW DBW version of cruise that I do. the last one I did was VAC based and worked well but took too much stuffing around to fit properly.

as i said I'm heading down that way debug a car in blacktown so Ican do yours then in fact I can probably do it onthe back half of that day if youare keen.

Andy, when is your mate getting his Stag? I wouldnt mind checking out his car and all the options as I'm going to buy another one from Japan asap.

I think he will get it in about a week. Still the be confirmed but see if we can help a show once received.

Cheers

Andy

    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
    • You haven't driven many modern cars then have you? Most of them have sfa steering feel with their stupid electric bullshit steering systems.
