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?

cool i do have an autech! (not that i have any idea what that means exactly) ;)

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..

10.2" screen. GPS, HDMI, Wifi 3g, divx, mp3 games etc.. It runs Android so the world is your oyster! :down:

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?

    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff   
    • A few random issues have popped up since my last update. My WMI pressure sensor failed within about 10 minutes of it seeing liquid. It was a 20$ China special, so I'm not surprised. My name brand replacement should arrive today.  My power steering assist also decided to crap out last weekend. The usual, works for about 60 seconds after starting the car then I lose it. I dusted off my old copy of NDS and connected to the HICAS ECU. Code 4 for assist solenoid.... I tested the solenoid and it's fine.  I knew the day where my HICAS ecu would crap out would come, and I welcome it. It was the last HICAS part on the car that is now in the bin. I've ordered an SSR and I will control the power steering solenoid with my Haltech ecu. It will be nice to have proper speed referenced assist again after all these years.
