This is f**king hot...

I guess that front bar's pretty rare?

that is hot but is not a masasports one might be custom

WTF dude? We know its not a masasports one...Its Nismo!

are you talking about the front bar or bonnet , so you reckon thats a nismo bonnet then ?

im talking about the bonnet

if so please post a link to that bonnet on a nismo site .......

At no point did you mention the bonnet when you were lamenting about how hot it looks, Dust.

So again, just to summarise for yourself (As everyone else is alreayd on the same page)

Front bar = Nismo

Bonnet = Masasports

Bonnet = Masasports

Bonnet MAY be the now defunct Dolphin item.

I have emailed RHD for a clear picture of the NM35 and PM35 Masa bonnet and will post here if I receive said pic.

I assumed the Masa image on RHD was a stock image; they say they stock bonnets for a bunch of models - so I figured the venting pattern may well be different for the Stag compared ot the image.

Now that you mention Dolphin, I do recall seeing one on their site - but yeah, that was discontinued yeaaaaaars ago :(

Yep same, which is why I requested a picture of the NM and PM bonnets.

The rims are 19x8.5 +22 Enkie GTC01

But thats too skinny, I ordered them online before anyone had done any real experimenting and wanted to be safe. We have worked out with my brothers M35 that 9.5 +35/30 is the ideal fitment - no scrubbing and no rolling necessary.

Although if I were to do it all again I would probably to a little flair/roll and run 9.5 +22

Its only the fronts that are an issue, you can easily fit 11" on the back! haha

What rubber did you end up getting?

I'm ordering wheels, same specs as yours (different brand). Thinking a 235/40-19 would fit the best. Thoughts?

All Clean with new rubber.

Should I do the black headlights? I cant decide if I should keep them silver because the car is dark, or black them out to make it mean...

That is a very VERY nice looking M35. Nice work!

yeah 225 and 245 are more common. I remember the Tyre guy telling me that the only car they can think of with 235 was the M3 so there arent any cheap options.

245 looks a bit big on 8.5J

Here is another pic of the tyre and fitment.

also undecided to black the headlights out

as the black loks awsome on the stagea expecially on the silver or white cars

yet with the blue colour im not sure as you need oposing colours light and dark so darker car means maybe keep silver lights to macth grill , still not sure

Cam - you are correct. Bonnet is a very rare Freeway - Dolphin item. If anyone finds one - i'll take it!!

What makes you think that its an NM35? Doesn't look like the guy was really after performance over stance!

    • It's generally best practise to run 1x run without VCT enabled, then 1x run enabled till redline. Overlay the two torque graphs and you'll find the desired RPM to turn off VCT. Sometimes, it might be even worthwhile turning off VCT earlier control torque/cylinder pressure and using VCT purely to spool the turbo.
    • They sell them in Malaysia for about $4
    • First time I ever have issues with Amazon, but my wife often tells me to keep an eye out for fakes. It finally got me. I wrapped up the conversation with Gates. The gentlemen I was talking to seemed to hate his job but the response time on their technical support is outstanding. He stated that the hose is marked with some variation of "SAE J30R10" but that if you only purchase a 1 foot length like I did, it is possible to get a cut between markings and have a blank hose. To no ones surprise, he stated the swelling and "gummyness" isn't normal and to replace/buy from somewhere else (He mentioned NAPA). I'll toss a small end of the new one in gas for a few days before pulling the hanger out again, just to be safe.  Hose should arrive Monday. For those running multiple pump in tank hangers, you know the joys of getting them out and back in. I'm surprised I haven't destroyed my level float yet.  Lastly once I wrap all of this up, I'm planning on hitting the dyno again in 2 weeks while I'm on vacation. I realized recently that my VCT is set to turn off at 5000RPM. I'm surprised it wasn't increased while I was on the dyno last. I'm expecting I can increase it to ~6500RPM, if not more. Should hopefully get another 15-20kw out of it. I also want him to revisit my knock thresholds. I'm occasionally getting false knock around 3000rpm. 
    • I don't believe you.
    • All jokes aside, OP they're just called R32 oem rims as you said. The Nissan engineers back in the late 80's loosely copied the design from the Koya Driftek which was designed and produced about 18 years later.
