I am currently looking into all the practicality issues of owning a V36 Skyline. I want a 370gt 7speed AWD sedan, but if they don't end up being comlianced, i will probably settle for a 350gt

In either case most spare parts stores don't even acknowledge the existence of the V35 and V36 Skylines.

I had a similar problem with my 180sx back before they were largely recognised. I used to say it was a 92 SR20DET Silvia which usually worked fine.

So would it be right to assume if i get a 350gt i just tell the guy in the store that i need spares for a Nissan 350z, and a 370z if i get the 370gt?

P.S. sorry if this has been covered before, i searched the FAQ and the other threads in this section before i posted, but i couldn't find anything!

not the V36 350GT though, Nissan 350Z is different and 370Z is only similar to the V36 370GT in terms of most mechanical part (apart from interior, exterior panels, and bits and bobs of other parts).

My guess if the AWD is available for import - the transmission part will be out of the question as local 350z/370z are not offered in AWD.

The only other way is to wait 10-20 years until they become as common as R32 today.

Not entirely true, I'm pretty sure the 07-08 350Z has the same engine as the V36 350GT Skyline sedan. Both have the VQ35HR engine.

As far as i know, engine parts like filters, plugs, etc etc are the same.

Really not sure about running gear like brakes, and obv panels and interior are entirely different.

Well...was considering below items:

1) Paddle Shifter kit

2) Sport Bumper (Front) and possibly a nice lips for it

3) Side and back kit OEM (Aero Kit)

4) Illuminated Kick plates (Skyline not Infinit wordings)

No 1 & 2 being my priority..he2..:whistling:

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • 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.
