Priced high 'cause it looks nice. A few guys here that own M35's and used to own M35's have been out to look at it and all said that it looks quite rough. I'd like to see it, but be stuffed flying u

stephen looked at it, i havent, and wont bother after his comments to me about it. its too cheap for a 2003 model with that mileage and the mods/additions on it. be wary of it if you do go to look at

Typed a lengtly reply and internet played up and it didn't save. Km's are fudged, I'm pretty sure of this, car is not as neat as you would expect for a 2003 with only 42,000 km's on the clock. Even t

you cant get bose in RX and ARX models (with the integrated stereo) and they only have beige (RX) and tan (ARX) leather seats. ARX MIGHT be available in full black interoir, but AFAIK only RS (AXIS?) came in all black.

Thanks for that. Neither were important and from the research I've done here it looks like I'm better off with an RS or maybe an RX anyway. I'll see whats around.

doh sorry dude. you CAN get bose in RX and ARX as they DO have the integrated stereo. AXIS might have a bose option. RS does not.

my bad!

Cheers mate. Just figured if I found one with the Bose setup I wouldnt feel the need to replace the stereo straight away. Ill see how i go.

ive heard the bose and its nice. so nice that i bought the sb to go in my spare wheel. i now just lack the door speakers, and the amp behind the rear seats.
I'd love to get one of the little subs for the spare wheel, maybe I should just do some bodgy fibreglassing... I'm sure you'd be able to use a decent 6 or 61/2" driver and a tweeter in the sail to get the same result as a nearly 10yr old bose speaker, or is that what you mean anyway...:whistling: Edited by Daleo

Thanks for the input mate - I got my eyes on Allimports and nagoya

All imports AKA Eddy Tran is known to give his cars "hair cuts".

I'm sure you can work out what that means.

is this for real? i am so close to buy one - i was meant to put deposit yesterday but holding back as I found one from Nagoya and still going to Northshore tomorrow

more input please

Mate just a head's up.....both the dealer's you were looking are a bit how's it going. I have seen both those yards stock about three time's and I personally would give them a miss. In saying that get the inspections done by the NRMA or similar ......whatever you do don't rush the purchase even if they start pressuring you saying there are other people interested(there are plenty of other good ones out there!....not saying that the car you are looking at is no good....just saying that if there was a problem they would more than likely not tell you. On the other hand I have heard that Nagoya does look after warranty claim's during that period!

It's worth paying a little more for a good car just quietly.....I learnt the hard way!

      R34 GT-T cycling ABS pump

      The team at OBD2 Australia are pretty good, shoot them an email and ask them. I've dealt with them before for work stuff. I'd be shocked if it didn't work, so long as Consult can activate the ABS. But you might need to use KLine for it which would be the stopper, as I don't think that piece does KLine comms.

      Yeah and hence my ghetto way of slamming the brakes, get the ABS to cycle, rebleed seems to be a sensible workaround.

      Hey! Happy to help. Nothing inherently wrong with the adapter, it's more so with Brett Collins himself. He gave me a lot of incorrect information when I was in contact with him and was extremely rude when I challenged him. He stated I could not use any aftermarket twin plate clutches except for his own, not to use the dush shield, bla bla bla and it was all BS.  Collins stated to cut roughly 14mm's off the housing, I took off 15mm to make room for the dust shield. I would confirm with whatever adapter manufacturer you're using.

      33 GTR Broken front wheel knuckle

      There's plenty of OEM steering arms that are bolted on. Not in the same fashion/orientation as that one, to be sure, but still. Examples of what I'm thinking of would use holes like the ones that have the downward facing studs on the GTR uprights (down the bottom end, under the driveshaft opening, near the lower balljoint) and bolt a steering arm on using only 2 bolts that would be somewhat similarly in shear as these you're complainig about. I reckon old Holdens did that, and I've never seen a broken one of those.

      Let's be honest, most of the people designing parts like the above, aren't engineers. Sometimes they come from disciplines that gives them more qualitative feel for design than quantitive, however, plenty of them have just picked up a license to Fusion and started making things. And that's the honest part about the majority of these guys making parts like that, they don't have huge R&D teams and heaps of time or experience working out the numbers on it. Shit, most smaller teams that do have real engineers still roll with "yeah, it should be okay, and does the job, let's make them and just see"...   The smaller guys like KiwiCNC, aren't the likes of Bosch etc with proper engineering procedures, and oversights, and sign off. As such, it's why they can produce a product to market a lot quicker, but it always comes back to, question it all.   I'm still not a fan of that bolt on piece. Why not just machine it all in one go? With the right design it's possible. The only reason I can see is if they want different heights/length for the tie rod to bolt to. And if they have the cncs themselves,they can easily offer that exact feature, and just machine it all in one go.
