Yep, that was mine.

Hmm, 750 bucks currently for a leather interior, popup screen, reversing camera and Nismo exhaust which are all in good condition.

Turbo, intake, dump may be okay, but I don't know.

Steering looks fine!!

Oh, and that headlight was fine Alex :P The other one, well that was in a million bits... instantly. Can't believe how readily they disintegrate!

Scott, and what radiator cap to you have Mr. Mishimoto?

Should've grabbed that damn G35 battery cover pinch.gif

Quick search for "battery cover" brings up this Paul whistling.gif

Any Nissan/Infinity dealer in the US, I went through West Covina Nissan for mine, but they are not so cooperative since Tony left.

Might even be some on Ebay Motors.

Should be a bit cheaper now though, I believe my mate got his recently for around the $100 but really needs to make up a couple of brackets.

How much factory bodywork did you need to cut? Any pics?

looks a lot neater with that cover.

Cheers

Yep, looks waaay nicer with one.

If you look at yours, you will see that there is an extra 10-15mm(?) of metal above the square rubber grommets for your hoses.

Cut that in line with the top of the grommets and run a brush with some rust prohibitive paint, then all you need to do is make up a small bracket for the top right section of the cover and cut a little in that area to fit :)

Surely they have some stupid hidden reserve for like 6k?

Yep, I was told they had $6k on it.

You can't cut the plastic cover?

I'm somewhat interested, but I can't find the run through from last time you did the group buy - am I just not searching properly? It's not on here or the 'somewhat awesome' forum as far as I can tell?

You won't find one.

GB didn't go ahead and it was only after I installed mine that I thought of offering the GB.

I think you can cut the plastic cover, but I couldn't see doing so would end up with a satisfactory finish so I cut the top strip of metal instead.

No need to worry Ryan, it is not a big job.

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
