Daleo's bracing, and the Superpro compression bushes give a much more pronounced handling improvement than the sways imo. Not saying 'don't get em' but increasing the spring rate isn't going to improv

I am organising another group buy for NM 35 Stagea Sway Bars. We require a MINIMUM of 5 orders to go ahead. Whiteline; http://www.whiteline.com.au/index.php have just added these exciting new product

I'd like to get some bits if they are compatible. Does anyone know if these will fit a 2007 rear wheel drive PM35? >I can PM the VIN if required.

Guys, I need your help.

I have just had a chat with Whiteline regarding the possibility of reinstating the NM35 bars as a stock component.

I have been asked to present a business argument, but I can only do that if there is enough demand to justify.

They are keen to do it; and it doesn't appear that we will need to guarantee the 20 odd sets that was originally talked about.

I need to know from you if you would be willing to buy a set; not to wait and see, not to sit on the fence while others do the hard yards.

If I can prove that these are still in demand, we will have them.

If you sit on your hands, waiting for someone else to stump up; you will be left wobbling around with no one to blame but yourselves.

It is in YOUR hands.

Please post in here so I can gauge demand.

Cheers, Dale.

You may remember this post from a couple of months ago; well I have some good news!

At Whiteline's request, I have submitted a proposal to re-introduce the NM35 Stagea Sway bars.

They have recently gotten back to me, & based on the information they've seen; I'm happy to announce that they will indeed be reintroducing them as a stock item in the 2nd quarter of 2014! :woot:

Based on the responses I received after my last posts, I believe we can meet a significant portion of the 20 sets they will produce. If Stagea owners purchase the bulk of this order; they will continue to be a stock item, and I'm also hopeful that my information will lead them to potential sales both in the US, and Russia.

Obviously a show of hands in the immediate future, will give them the impetus to keep this batch at the forefront of their minds, and ensure that we get what we've been waiting for.

I'm not asking for any kind of financial commitment right now, but I will be running this first order as a Group Buy; to ensure that the forum members that have been waiting (some quite a while) get first crack at them, and at the best possible prices. :thumbsup:

I think as a group, we're really lucky to have guys like Whiteline out there; they were as enthusiastic as me in making this happen, and I really believe that enthusiasm should be supported.

Have a great weekend guys, this is a real win. :banana:

Yeah exactly Dave, everyone will be fully committed for Christmas now; I'm not expecting any significant orders until January.

I'm just glad I'll be able to start saying YES!; instead of NO :no: again.

Everyone who has them, knows what a difference they make to the handling of our cars.

I'll definitely be in, most likely for a "full package" (if available - bars, links etc..).

On a slightly off topic note you don't happen to have any of your front chassis braces available do you Daleo?

Cheers

I take it these would be fine on a PNM35 as well? If so then I may be able to convince the Mayoress of Funpants it'd be a worthwhile upgrade by Q2 FY14.

Im definitely up for a set. I am also more than happy to put my money where my mouth is in a pre-order if it helps to show commitment.

No worries Caleb, no need for money right now, but when they are available; I'll be doing a Group buy, to maximise the saving for everyone.

Once that starts, I'll be asking for financial commitment.

I'll be updating this thread as information comes to hand, and there will be plenty of advance warning, so no-one will miss out.

      7 Speed Auto transmission fluid change (Skyline, Q50, Q60, Fuga, Q70, A62 Titan and probably heaps of others including Navara...)

      By Duncan · Posted

      I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.

      our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
