Over the coming year builing upto getting my full lisence I wall be slowly saving my pretty Pennies to do a full M35 stagea nose on a V35 skyline to make a MV35 stagline.

Engine, gearbox, body... Everything.

So i there you are parting with some OEM stagea parts let me know on this or PM me.

VQ25DET turbo and 5AT box

Looking for preferably white body parts.

If there is anything I should look out for in stageas also let me know

Would look pretty cool with a series 2 (PM35 - 2005+) front.

There are bonnets on Yahoo every now and then (make sure it is the right one), front bars are always on there and usually cheap and there are a number of HID headlights on there now that are cheap too. I don't know if the front quarter panels will just bolt on, but they'd be damn close.

Just make sure it is a 2005+ Stagea front :)

No staying RWD. I can either get a whole front cut which engine, tranny, panels and all for about 3k+ or buy individual..... Will deffo nead HiDs because I have them on the skyline now.

Would love the axis autech kit

Surely it would be better to just buy a half-cut? That way you don't have to search everywhere for silly little things like the wiring/relays you didn't get with the engine etc that hold up a build, and frustrate the hell out of you...

Has anyone built one of these before? Pics? Photochop? would love to see how the lines suit/don't suit... Just remembering that M35 with the R35 front: there were a few really awkward looking lines from some angles...

That said, I Like the M35 s2 front much better than most of the V35 fronts: looking forward to seeing the end result!

Reason I ask is the 2.5dd has the same ecu plug, cams and sensors as the 25det. It may make your job easier, especially if you can get e85 and some turbo parts to drop on your current engine. Is there an e85 servo near you?

That bottom pic is the face lift I did to my series 1.

Definitely looks much, much better except I didn't have the strip (and bracketing) that goes on the bonnet.

Was going to buy a Toyota mark II and sell the skyline but I'm attached and it's a Toyota. So! The stagline project is going ahead with the commencement of my full liscence.

Just a couple of questions:

-My car being RWD and the VQ25DET and transmission being AWD will a NA VQ30/35 5 speed box bolt onto the VQ25DET?

-would it be cheaper buying a front cut with panels, engine, and all minus the box and buying that separate?

-is there any little niggles/faults/problems that arise that need to be addressed whilst the car is off the road?

I have a variation of those blinker covers on my Skyline, I think the top pic is the same as mine. I also believe that they are a factory option, can somebody with FAST please confirm.

You can also source them on Yahoo/IM.

    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
    • Trailer got new mudguards to accommodate the new wheels Lightweight ally Painted, stickered and done ✅ 👌
