They are easily double the money of any NM35, and you can't comply them. So unless you put up the money to go through all the compliance work- its not going to happen. I wouldn't want to go to that interior anyway. Wish they made it off the series 2.

Scotty- Aren't they the same as any V35 series one manual? how does the length of the box match up between a V35 manual, and a R33 or R34 GTR box? You might buy it only to find out it doesn't fit!pinch.gif

Thats to the US mate.

Estimates I've seen here is low 30s to mid 40s + 50k to 60k as I understand to get compliance for a model.

Thats a lot of manual conversions....buy a series 2- Get a V35 pedal box and gearbox, job done.

Suppose you know what grill you bought now...

I only placed a bid on the pedal set. I had the same thought about the console, better to mod the one I have I think.

wow i do love those seats too. i was thinking they would be in like mid range 30's from your post pn-mad, for 16k if they could get complied id jump on it.

Thats to the US mate.

Actually that is the price of the car off the lot (Goo-net display cars that are for sale via dealerships). Then you have to pay transport in Japan, shipping here, customs, GST etc, transport to compliance shop IF you can find one that wants to get the compliance plates for the 350S (good luck).

Prob add another $8k on top. Much, much more than that if you have to pay for the testing/evidence/emissions etc.

Same seats are in the PM35 Axis S so easy to come by

so why is it that a compliance shop doesn't do the testing etc. surely within our circle there is a big demand for manual m35's. one would think they would make that money back quite quickly, or is it some insanely high price for that particular model for some reason??

They would normally, but it would be extremely difficult for them to make their money back on the 350S due to how rare the car was and I wouldn't think that many would be willing to fork over, say $40k+ for a 2003 Stagea.

      Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily.

      Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?

      What Duncan said sounds right. Also, it looks like they only have the driver's mat. Not the rest. Because looking at the diagram: KG4911 is just the mat for the driver. KG4900 is the full set if I'm not mistaken and discontinued.   But, it looks like they may still have the full set for the manual S2. Might be worth checking for the other models as well as they seem slightly different. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/misc/G49 Man, I'm tempted.

      I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
