define 'full' ... That shit's heavy and will add a lot of unnecessary weight if you put it in the roof and all the other stuff. Just get the doors and boot (if putting in a sub) dynamatted or do it yourself. Shit's expensive too, not just heavy. Before, after doesn't matter ..whenever it's cheaper (probably during stereo install)

i pay $40each full sheet and yes i would be installing the dynamat before installing speakers as u want the dynamat between the speaker and the door to stop them vibrating against each other, there is other option like liquid deadener and other cheaper copies of dynamat but none will be as easy to install nor will they work as good thats what i think anyway.

Im in the process of doing the second layer of dynomat and some other tricks to silence the car inside(For SPL competitions and my sanity on adelaide ruts)..my GTT had a serious case of rattles in the sunroof area even with the radio off.lol

there are many Dynamat copies and some work just as good if not better when you consider price. but dynamat has great quality

anything is better then nothing???

iirc dynamat recommend doors first, then boot, then the floor. i've had just my doors done (outer and inner skin) and it's made a significant difference.

oh and don't worry about the excess weight, unless you are going to race the thing.

Try Marty at FHRX, $40/sheet is expensive! I remember paying about $25/sheet roughly.

      G35 Control arm and Compression Rods into a V35 Skyline.

      By Last Phantom · Posted

      Hey crew, Failed my WOF cause of a lower control arm, and I've decided to hit both arms, and also the compression rods at the same time(seems they're gonna be the most likely upcoming failure points from some discussions with the lads over on the G35 reddit). I've looking at these form Z1:  https://www.z1motorsports.com/front-suspension/hayaku-automotive/hayaku-g35-front-compression-rod-p-40716.html https://www.z1motorsports.com/front-suspension/hayaku-automotive/hayaku-g35-front-lower-control-arm-p-40674.html I asked Z1 if they'd work as it's the same platform, just RHD vs LHD. I basically got told "Lol dunno". Specifically they aren't aware of any difference but can't guarantee fitment as they haven't done it on a 350GT. So guess I'm asking is if there is any issues with using 2005 G35 coupe suspension parts on a 2005 350GT coupe? Orginally I thought it could be something in the way of the arms that each control arm is designed to be positioned around, but that'd be an engineering nightmare for Nissan needing two different shaped control arms 😅

      Help needed issue with heater core blower and actuator and need someone to fix this and reinstall dash - 32 - Gtst

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      ^ This. The mode door actuator is a common failure, as is the actuator and/or the actual valve for the coolant flow control valve. I also don't know how available the mode door actuator is these days. I've been meaning to look into it and get one from wherever is possible, to keep in the shed for the rainy day when mine eventually fails. Anyway, the advice to you is to search the usual NOS part supply places, or even just go to Nissan and see what they list.

      Have you got a pic of the actuator? My guess is that unit has failed internally and was flopping around, so the previous engineer who owned it forced it to be fully open to cold air (blocking the heater core path). As far as you can tell, is anything else wrong in the system? Likely you just need a new actuator (not sure how available they are) and then "installation is the reverse of disassembly"

      Looking at getting a Tesla style Screen for my V37 Skyline.

      By Duncan · Posted

      I'm happy with the Lsailt unit that I put in, it puts full Android on the top screen so you can run whatever Nav and other Apps you want, while still existing inside the factory functionality like automatic reverse cams, audio input switching, retains factory bluetooth etc. Not cheap and the install was moderate (not simple, not hard) Yours is a V36 not V37 though right?

      NC MX5

      By The Bogan · Posted

      Yeap, all the NC's that I originally looked at that had a hard top were PRHT, which makes the roof line look horrible, hence why I said nope to them My only caveat for another MX5 was it needed to have a hard top, and initially I didn't think you could get a detachable hard top for the NC,  like my NB had Again, a big thanks to Matty for helping me source the detachable hard top for my little girl, they are as rare as hens teeth in Australia, and the few people who have them, keep them Also to Greg, for initially pointing me in the NC direction NC PRHT 🤢🤮 Not mine (I really should take more photos of my car), but a NC with the detachable hard top 😁 To me, the difference in how the detachable hard top roof line looks, and how it actually follows the bodies lines, like they do on NA's and NB's, is chalk and cheese compared to the bulbous looking PRHT
