Buggered if I know, interior and exterior are pure RS.... maybe it has Autech suspension?

Ride height looks fairly standard (Based on that photo from the rear) - assuming 'Autech' suspension is what they throw in the AXIS it should be looking a lot more 'slammed' imho. Too odd!

Yeah, ride height does look stock, but I don't know how much lower the Autech suspension is (wouldn't be much)... if it is at all lower than RS/RX suspension.

about a couple of inches i think.

I've seen my car side to side with an Autech, and it looked quite a bit lower.

Considering that the Nismo S-tune is 20mm lower than RS/RX stock, I would seriously doubt that the Autech suspension is as much as 10mm lower than standard.

Garett has an M35 with Autech kit which has S-tune suspension on it, and it looked much lower than the Sage222's

Interesting. Someone want to FAST my VIN and see what it is?

happy that in stimulated some conversation too!

does that FAST app tell me anything else interesting? I see its a build 9/03 which is nice.. the seller told me it was an 03.. tho i couldnt find any details on the car..

Does it tell me if it has HICAS?

just on another note for those following this thread.. i will indeed junk the AVIC-XH9

I am looking at putting a flytouch2 into it to replace it..

Can get cigarette lighter power for it to hard wire it in.. then i should be able to go headphone jack to RCA amplifier to feed back into the stereo.

Anyone got any experience with this?

im downloading Nissan FAST now.. though can someone tell me if mine has HICAS?

i just had a look at mine again today at the dealer (still a couple of weeks away).. They had it next to a 01 non autech.

The 01 had a smaller diameter exhaust at least from the centre muffler.. also the centre muffler on the 01 was only a small unit where mine has the big molded unit..

What is factory diameter exhaust of the stagea? cause on my autech it looked at least 2.5" and the 01 next to it looked like 2 1/4".

Wondering if mine has aftermarket or the 01 does or both.

To the best of my knowledge, HICAS only came on AR-X models. An AXIS will have HICAS if it started off life as an AR-X also. Given that the model on the back of your car is 250t RS, I'd say 'No' to HICAS. But we've been wrong about your car before :thumbsup:

can anyone tell if the m35 shares the same springs as anything else? skyline etc? looking at a cheap option to lower it. :ermm:

350z springs SHOULD fit. Stock springs on the M35 are the same as V35 and 350z - or at least thats what I was told by Sinergy motorsports when I was trying to source springs

I think you will find v35 are similar but much softer, not what you want when lowering. I have king springs here if you want to lower on the cheap... Are your shocks ok?

    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
    • Continental have consistently beaten the absolute shit out of every other performance tyre in Wet/Damp/Cold conditions and give up a little bit of time (half a second at most) in the dry. Almost like it's engineered for German conditions or something. I'd def give those a try.
