ohh all available from the yahoo auctions in japan, just used Import Monster.

i still need a front strut brace to finish it off.

and i think ill go nolathane bushing everywhere

You may want to look at a V35 one then as the M35 strut brace will not fit with the 19mm runner spacer in there mate.

I dunno if the V35 braces will actually fit, but I suppose you have more chance as the top of the engine sits higher in a V than ours do.

problem is is that even if you have a strutt brace to fit above the plenum with the runner space how do you get it to fit between the bonnet and the plenum!

Oh that's right....you need another type of bonnetninja.gif

lol... subtle like a jackhammer as always mate.

or get a PM35 bonnet modified (it has at least another 20mm clearance over the NM35 bonnet)

is there a way of customer fabricating one? ie Whiteline??

I spoke to Whiteline about this, and Wayne basically said because it's a labour intensive component to produce, it would need to sell in fairly large numbers to be worthwhile. So, at this stage, most likely not.

I want to find out whether they do one for the 350z, if they do I want to source the strut tower mounts and do some clearance testing to see if we can manufacture a bar to fit our bay, using their mounts.

Might save some time, and they might be interested.

hey daleo did u but the bcs with the off the shelf spring rate as i was thinking you can ask suppliers to give you diiferent spring rates.

So if i have the cash i would buy tein super flex wagon but ask them for a different spring rate to soften them up , but if the bc were off the shelf standard spring rate ill just go for those and use the rest of the money for

my sway bars , links , mount brackets

Yeah sorry, as Iain said I'm running with the damping 3 clicks in from full soft, there's 30 clicks of adjustment and you can feel a difference with just one click.

I reckon the rates are spot on for a regularly driven car, your roads are much the same as ours anyway, and if you need a bit more, you can always wind in a bit more damping.

The swaybars & links just make a nice package even sweeter.:thumbsup:

Bonnets differ ?????

yes....they are different in a couple of different way's.

But in a dark alley near one of the corner's of middle earth and bellow the surface the is a man of which only two people have ever seen.....this man holds the secret to cooler under bonnet temp's and room for a strutt brace with a plenum spacer!blush.gif

onto other new's....Dale is Whiteline interested in doing springs? I have some special ones on there way!

OX Motor sports have strut/tower bar for a VQ25DET but it appears you need to move some items by the looks of the pics

Bonnets differ ?????

Considerably.

The Series 2 M35's (PM35/PNM35) need a bonnet with more clearance because of the VQ35de they use whereas the VQ25/VQ30 used in the series 1 M35's (M35/NM35) sit a lot lower.

Also, the PM35 grill is narrower and the headlights larger so the "tabs" on the front of the bonnet are in a different spot (I found this out the hard way)

Has he created a mould yet? Started testing?

OX strut brace won't fit if you have a runner spacer... nor will any of the other VQ25det designed strut braces for that matter

I'll be talking to Wayne later this week, and I'm going to hit him up about springs, etc. So I'll let you know. What's so special about your springs, eh?

I spotted some Dolphin springs on YAJ at one point, perhaps he snagged them; dunno if they're specifically 'special' mind you :)

so do the PM35 bonnets have a more aggresive higher look to them

are they not able to sit onto the NM35 as the MN35 is the only turbo late model stag

and whats this is someone making some aftermarket bonnets ??

if so very keen

Edited by Sidius

PM35 will bolt straight onto an NM35 (I have done it), but you will either need to cut and re-weld the abs at the front as they are closer together than the NM35 ones, or buy PM35 headlights, grill and front bar (as I did).

Yes, the PM35 bonnet is higher in between the creases. I think it looks much better from the driver seat (find myself looking at the "step" on the crease quite often for some reason).

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
