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.

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

      Chatting one someone recently at racing them at QR. They say you can't take turn 2 in one flat stick in 4th. They don't have the torque to pull them selves straight, so make sure you're ringing it's neck out in 3rd instead

      Should you buy cheap Chinese tyres?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Many years ago when I bought my FG XR6T, it came with bald tyres on the back (think pretty much smooth for most of the tread) and brand new Kinforest cheap shit tyres on the front. In the rain, I had more grip in the bald ass tyres on the back, than the brand new Kinforest. To the point you couldn't drive off at a set of lights and turn the corner. Car would only go straight. Very quickly all four tyres were replaced.   A few years back on a VF SV6 I had, it came with brand new chineesium tyres. In the wet at 90kmh, old 1990s tray back tradie utes could corner faster than me. There was one corner on a freeway, in a 90 zone, it's not even marked to reduce speed for those curve, it's not a hard corner, I could put the LandCruiser on mud tyres through with ease (it would easily do the corner in the wet I reckon at 120kmh), the VF however couldn't get through it at 80, as it would want to slide out.   Cheap tyres aren't worth the risk. I like decent brakes, and decent grip.

      Anyone here a submersible fuel hose expert? I pulled my hanger out again for unrelated issues and noticed the hose I popped on last week has already swollen. This is Gates 27093 submersible hose. I've waiting on a response from Gates, but this surely can't be normal? This is on pump gas, not E85.  Is swelling a tad possibly normal? I've also been fighting with my power steering belt.... I've now tossed one and killed two. I just realigned my pulleys again, hoping this time it stays on. It doesn't like high rpm.

      Don't want to side track from the thread too much (don't want to upset the thread starter's run from 2007) so here's some old rusted Nissan Laurels in a parking lot in Nishinomiya, Hyogo-ken:
