with the rims. did you have any other issues at all? cleared the brakes fine etc?

trying to find some low offset rims myself atm im just going the space out the ones i have now thou:D

im running 15mm bolt on spacers... but pretty sure the rims clear the calipers any way, just need to get a gaurd roller on the gaurds to make some room

WOW mate! She just gets better and better!

I have been in NZ for 3 weeks and am AMAZED at the amount of M35s I have seen! Where abouts are you? I was staying at my sisters in Remuera in Auckland. Now on the South Island.

im in hamilton which is about 90mins south of auckland, M35's are cheap as chips here.... can pick a standy non turbo one up for $7000

Hey Chasey sweet looking ride. I'm looking for an Aero front bar, they really suit the M35 and yours just sealed it for me.

And yeah there are heaps of M35's around now, prices are good and they're alot of car.

Auckland prices range from about 8k at the bottom (high km) to about 16k for low km top of range. Even a few 3.5's available now.

Hey guys, im new to the forum but thought id post up some pics of my RS4 turbo M35. Im in NZ but running euro plates.

Running 19x10 AME rims at +5 offset, silk road coil overs, raiser exhaust.

X-member sits at 38mm from the ground.... suspension can go lower but as you can see its hard for the body to drop any more, also top arms hit on the body at this height.

i like the look of it, but sheesh, 38mm to the x/member - has to be borderline undriveable......

might have to start looking at some bash plates to protect any important bits. if you're on stancenation i'm sure you would have seen all the images of oil pans that have scraped through!

i used to think i was bad a$$ with 60mm of clearance on my LS400.....got sick of not being able to drive it anywhere and the sound of UCA's trying to punch out of the strut towers tho...i must be getting old huh.....

nah the sump is all tucked up... the only part that touches the road at times is the engine X member... i drive this thing every day like this, clocked up about 25,000km at this height. just get to know what roads you can go down and which ones to avoid.

Ive moved to gold coast now but still have the stagea back in NZ if any one is keen to buy it

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
