Just picked up the M35 and first impressions...

Seating height is much better imo which was the main inspiration for the seat swap. I'll get a few pics once the sun comes out.

The aero front bar is also awesome however one of the driving lights needs a new globe :(

Pics please!

Managed to clear my defect today (wheels too wide [cops around here aren't so great]) by painting and fitting these R33 stockies. They look stupid but at least it's cleared.

Also installed new bonnet struts so I can FINALLY work under the bonnet without the risk of skull damage haha.

Never before in the field of human endeavour has so little been achieved in so much time by just one man.

Today I replaced a 3 inch length of 5/16" hose on my turbo watercooling return line.

It took four farken hours go to woah; I feel like a retard.

I noticed a significant drop in the rad recovery bottle a few days ago, and when I went looking; I found coolant all over the passengers side steering rack boot. Turbo is directly above this area; great!

Looked around, no real signs of failed hoses but coolant stains on the hard line, hmmm...

After removing the hose, it looks like the hose is delaminated internally due to the radiant heat of the exh manifold, and forcing coolant up the reinforcing braiding and out the cut ends of the hose.

Then did a cooling system flush and new coolant.

As per protocol; thanks go to Scotty for the cooling system mod, which make bleeding the cooling system a breeze.

Good job Scotty. ;)

ok photo time now that it's finally stopped raining near the beach :P

Everyone has seen an aero front bar before so i only took 1 quick photo.

The others are just random pics of the GTR seats.

The car is pretty messy atm but due to the weather i haven't had the chance to give it a decent clean...

Dude they look so good. What's the comfort level like?

If I had the black interior I would definitely be putting this high on the mod list.

It's taken a bit to get use to comfort wise and i am finding myself fiddling a bit with the seat position but i'll get it right. The biggest improvement is the height... so much better as now the rear view mirror doesnt obstruct you view at all through the front window.

I didn't but i did take notice when i was carrying them and to be honest i would say the weight was very similar.

The drivers M35 seat may have been ever so slightly heavier but that may have been due to the air bag solenoid + locking set up... I could barely tell the difference.

Noice! Excuse my ignorance but what are the two switches in front of the cup holder. My RX only has the one switch on the console for the attesa.

    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
