Just wanted to let ppl know that the 2004 and later models of the M35 350RX and ARX-4 (namely PM35 and PNM35) are now available through Northshore Prestige in Balgowlah, Sydney. They have a few of them in stock. I was fortunate to drive the test mule at the beginning of the year and was most impressed with the power delivery. Although a non-turbo, the VQ35DE engine most commonly found in 350Z and V35 Skylines provides a nice punch from the get go. The trim is revised as well with a nice aluminium look finish along the centre as well as dual zone climate air control and other nice little updates. I also noticed the headlights have been updated as well, although it's still single instead of bi-xenons which wouldve been nice. The rims have also been changed to a better looking design imo.

So go down and give them a test drive if you're looking for a later model M35.

I'm fairly certain that the 2004 turbo versions have not been approved to be complied simply because no one in the country has done an emissions test on them and to do one of those costs over 20 grand. Plus it doesnt guarantee it will pass as well too! (and chances are that they wont pass due to new regulations being imposed from that year onwards).

Even the n/a variant was not smooth sailing through the emissions testing I was told, but at least it's now finally done and dusted.

Ahh nice, what ever became of that axis 2004 model that couldnt get compliance? did he get rid of it?

are the turbo models of this range allowed in now?

I thought the VQ25DET was the only turbo model of the M35 and only available until 2003?

The later model M35 is n/a only.

Just checked out the 2006 (blue) one on their website. 350RX model. The wheels are the same as previous M35's - no difference there. The dash is much improved - including the gear lever - looks very nice :) Even the clock section is slightly different...

Also noticed this model has the powerduct fitted already - is this a factory item on the n/a models?

I do like the improved styling of the front grille/lights etc. Its subtle but looks much nicer :P

They changed the rims to an earlier model because it did have different rims on when I drove it. I'll find the rims from a later Stag.

The powerduct is an interesting point, I wonder if all later models are like that.

I can sell you my Pm35 front bar if you want Steve. Aren't using it and it is silver (does need a re-spray though) :)

Powerduct is standard on the VQ35 powered Pm35.

I actually don't really like the interior. Silver plastic has never been high on my list of likes.

You can get the turbo versions in 2004 although I believe that was the very last year for the FI on the Stags.

Correct, but as you said earlier, no compliance due to the change in emissions regs that year.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.

      The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.

      Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
