It will be awhile before any mods. Have to Ninja the mods into the car without the wife knowing about it. Car is now just a nice taxi/shopping trolley which i can engoy.

I know what that feels like.

"Err, just going out to the back shed to sharpen the mower blades"

I've used 66 sets of blades this year.LOL :whistling::cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

Got mine trough Geoff from Prestige Motorsport www.prestigemotorsport.com.au

Car came as described + 3 keys + books with all service history

Knowing what I know today I would've bought from Northshore as well not because I regret my purchase but I had to wait a long time and deal with some paper work

Hard to trust the majority of dealers... sad but it's true.

Got even a good example: when I was looking at the auctions in Japan I saw a Black Stagea with a set of 20'' BBS that had 111K on the ODO and it was sold for 425 K Yens. I saw the same car for sale here in Sydey. I sent an email inquiring about it. The sales person told me that the car had only done 47k km and was asking for 27K....

Bought mine through Northshore 5 years ago this September.

Organised a mate's M35 through Ben about a year later and had a hand in a number of other M35's... all from Northshore.

Can't fault Northshore's cars, nor their service (although there was one minor issue with the rear window motor on one).

Hate hearing stuff like that, but it definitely happening.

47,000kms on a family wagon that is almost 10years old? C'mon, bit of common sense.

OP - Don't be afraid to pick up an M35 with around 100,000kms on the clock. Presuming they have been serviced regularly with decent fluids, 100,000kms is nothing - although I guess when you crack 210,000kms in a modified M35, you sorta have a different perspective!

What about it?

Dayz body kit, not 100% positive it is an Autech though (did the Axis come with grey surrounds and steering wheel? I have only seen black).

^^^+1 for typo. Also I can't see it being an Axis, plenty of holes to weld up once they took the flares off; no way those guards have been welded... Just an RX with a kit?

Certainly we are of the same optinion, although you don't see many with the Dayz kit.

I wonder if it is still available...

Basically I don't wanna cross the boundaries of this forum but PERHAPS the Black Stagea that I mentioned previously ( the one with 111K on the clock) and this one on ebay are the same.... point made.... sorry if I wasn't very clear by just posting the link....

Now, are you implying that a car yard doesn't know much about the M35 Stagea?

I didn't read all of the ad previously, but how in the name of the Gods do they expect someone to buy a car when the description is so far off?

Do they really think it will instil the buyer with the trust required to make the deal?

Seriously, what the f**k is with import yards like this?

Hmmm, copy/paste anyone? I think they're just lazy,ohmy.gif and if someone believes their BS so much the better for them...

Let the buyer beware...

No, I'm not. All I'm saying is that you'd want to check out the things in bold.

We all know the rules on the forum about businesses, and I don't want to go down that slippery slope.

I have had someone that complies M35's tell me it had a 3.5 litre turbo motor in it....:blush:

I know, it was more a tongue in cheek statement but I forgot to use an emoticon >_<

      That M3 looks like it handles so well, initial slight understeer on turn in followed by oversteer which is cancelled out as steering returns to centre. Looks like such a fun car to drive. In comparison the Skyline and Sierra look like they understeer more and thus need more heavier steering inputs...?

      Common for single gauges to be swapped around. My 33 GTST when I bought it had a GTR tacho fitted, everything else was GTST gauges.

      Google says for a 1998 Nissan Maxima to pull/pry, and the metal pin might even come out with it. I'd do a bit more googling, there was a few videos, find some where the shafts/needles appear most similar and compare the techniques.

      FS - RB30 Turbo upgrade bolton turbo kit - 600kw

      By Predator1 · Posted

      Details: Turbo Borg Warner EFR 9180 with 1.05 rear housing Upgraded TurboSmart integrated BOV Sanded and powdercoated compressor cover in gloss black Elbow welded with wiggins clamp Speed Sensor(Not included) (Can include oil drain(heat wrapped + titanium intake pipe with almost new filter for a tad extra). Manifold: 6 Boost RB26/30 twin scroll manifold  e-MAP ports drilled into both scrolls(I was using the TAARKS EMAP KIT) Turbo is in excellent condition. Always used Penrite 15w50 Racing oil(Changed less then 2000ks). Also using the Turbosmart OP regulator and filter. Downpipe: 4inch Stainless steel with VBand inlet and outlet clamps(included) Heat wrapped Dual ports for Dyno/Wideband usage Will throw in free 2.5 inch intercooler pipe(2.5inch From turbo outlet to 3.5 inch intercooler) - Powder coated black. Turbo made 563rwkw on mainline hub dyno at around 24-25psi boost - Pump fuel. Will def make over 600kw on e85. Didn't bother as my e-MAP was through the roof with my setup sitting past the choke line. I have a cnc ported and fully built head on my 3.2. Turbine speed saw max of around 109k rpm. I'm running this on my R32 GTR, with AC, and the original power steering pump. The manifold clears the AC lines, ABS, and everything else. Although I had new AC lines because I just wanted new ones and I heat wrapped them as well. This will make more power on a slightly lower capacity motor with a higher PR. And I have since upgraded to a G45-1500. Have pics and videos if need be.  Absolutely nothing wrong with setup. Turbo is in perfect condition. No shaft play or oil leaks at all. All the work was professionally done. The transient response of this is fkn amazing. I cannot rave more about this turbo. If I wasn't chasing 4 figures, I would have kept it. $5000 NZ. Located: Auckland, New Zealand.
