Looks nice,

Impul body kit and an aftermarket FMIC. (maybe a Impul ECU in there also)

some sort of aftermarket suspension. Looks like the the CV boot seals are a starting to come off.

The M35 is a much more refined car than the C34 and lots more torque. A bit more of a cruiser.

You should enjoy.

There is lots of information on this forum about trouble shooting problems.

VIN number printed on your windscreen (from the first photo), when entered into FAST tells us your car was manufactured June 2002, Exterior Colour code: KYO and interior is G (grey). Motor is VQ25DET, 4WD, 5 speed auto, Model type is 250TRSFV

Model: TLGNRSNM35UDA-A--

I recently upgraded from a '97 n/a Stagea 25X to a 2006 RX250 FOUR n/a and haven't been disappointed in any way. It's a far more modern and refined car. Quite a bit higher driving position, better economy and handling. A very worthy successor to the old model, although looks don't appeal to everyone. I always thought the old Stagea was one of the best looking wagons on the road.

With nice slim profile tyres, 20's may be ok but I would look for someone with 20's and see what they have to say about it.

Lots of M35's getting around with 19's but that's not to say 20's wouldn't be possible. I know the best offset is +38.

Remember if you have an all wheel drive (atessa) vehicle, keep the wheels and tyres the same all round (or atleast ensure your rolling diameter is as close as possible) or the atessa will have something to say about it.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
