What Have You Done To Your Stagea Lately?

There is always 1

[R31 POWER]

Cut out the front bumper and made a stainless steel bracket for the number plate that bolts in the factory position. Also rested on the eylids to see how they look before i get them painted pearl white.

That looks AWESOME! so tidy... Love it. I like the eyelids black!

Noticed a knock in the front end since i installed the superpro 33mm solid front sway bar. Inspected it today and noticed a gap of 6mm (3mm each side) between the fixed rib and the support bush. So i made up 2 dense rubber spacers to fill the gap and stop the knocking. While i was at it i regreased the rear whiteline sway bar bushes as there was excessive creaking from the rear end. Another day another thing fixed. Next will be the passenger side inner driveshaft boot.

This weekend efforts on the wagon

1. Fitted the front half of my Alcon brake upgrade.

2. Drove it to WSID and ran a 12.2 (a PB).

3. Split the heater core on the way home and turned my girlfriends shoes a lovely shade of glycol green.

Whilst vaccuming out the rear seat of the Stag over the weekend I was shocked to discover that under all the wrappers, leaves, stones, nuts, random bits of plastic, crayons and multitude of other crap that had built up over the past couple of years of being the famliy hauler...there is actually carpet back there. Who woulda thunk it. Somehow, it's still beige, and it's remarkably clean.

After waiting for a VSS from Nissan for 3 weeks this beast is back on the road. And it was nice to see the previous owner change all the fluids except the transfer case in 18 years. It was very brown to say the least. Felt good to drive it again.

Finished fitting my paddle shifters. Also fitted the strut brace and an analogue clock from a G35.

Standard equipment on the GT-8 as far as I know

[M35]

1. Paddle shifter from V35 GT-8. Took of the leather wrap underneath is aluminium, I sanded it and polished. I can post a wiring diagram for anyone wants to do it.

2. Strutbar from Aliexpress.

3. Clock from a G35 through Ebay.

Paddle shifters look great! (is it the same as those ? http://www.ebay.com/itm/FACTORY-INFINITI-G37-G35-V36-COUPE-SEDAN-OEM-PADDLE-SHIFTER-KIT-IN-GREY-/231109380810 )

That looks way better then the after market setup. And price looks possibly better. How is the feel?

And yes show us your wiring diagram

No. That one on Ebay is for a later model V36-37, and its hard work to modify. V35 GT-8 look like this and its a direct fit. Just remove the steering wheel and line up the holes. You will also need the top and bottom steering shroud if you want to return your car back to way it was.

I got mine from a wrecking yard.

Any noticeable improvement over stock for the brace? Also price on the g35 strut brace?

[scotty nm35]

Have a look at the front suspension, notice the strut isn't actually a part of the front end geometry or hub like the 33/34 skyline, it just provides downforce through the lower bush. Hence why the strutbrace makes no difference.

If you want to tighten the front end you need to brace the compression arm as Nissan did with the series 2 V35's (Dale's brace or OX motorsport), and use the Superpro poly compression bush.
