Hey Guys,

I finally got a set of wheels for the M35... I got some Enkei GTC01 in 19x8.5 +22 Tyres are 225/40/19

The fitment is perfect! exactly what I was going for in terms of filling the guards. Check out the pics

Some of you may remember I tried running a staggered set a few months back but had attesa issues.... Well I have now bought a set of 4 matching wheels and tyres, and still have the attessa shifting torque to the front when it doesnt need to.

Has anyone had this issue with aftermarket wheels on the M35? I never had this problem on my C34 stagea. Any advice/ideas would be great.

In the mean time check all the pics below! Im loving them :) I now have loads of room for 350Z Brembos :bunny:

Ben.

I am so jealous. (the only way they could be any better was if they in dark gun metal and then they would be perfect for my silver ARX, LOL)

I have no idea about the ATESA issue. Are you getting any fault codes? Have you checked the fluid in the ATESA bottle?

Other wise not sure what it is.

Cheers

Andy

hmmm, that would look great on your car Andy (when?), although I don't think Ben could have picked a nicer wheel colour to compliment the dark blue.

(could use a bit of dish though :) )

Hate to ask Ben, but when does it put torque to the front wheels?

Any time its under heavy load. if you gently accelerate its no problem, but if you give it a little it puts torque through. And yes im quite sure its no where near breaking traction. If the standard wheels are on, it stops doing it...

looks great ben.......no idea on the problem you are talking about but I do remember our GTR doing the same thing years ago when we changed wheels.... unless you have errors coming up on your screen I would not worry about it.

should get your nuts painted same as ur car :down:

bit rude CL11QE!....not to mention the sanding back!!!....but whatever you into!!!

I drove a M35 that had the torque split gauges and the owner said if you give it a bit harder accelleration the power will move to front wheels and u can see it on the guage... maybe your problem is not really a problem. Any others notice this or does the torque split only happen when u break traction?

on hard acceleration

the gauge moves usually on atessa systems

Well when I put the standard wheels on, the only time the atessa comes on is when its breaking traction. There is a noticable difference on the guage between the two wheel sets.

Mind you... if there wasnt a guage I wouldnt think there is a problem. everything runs perfectly, no warning lights, or vibrations or anything!

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox !
