Yes, agree.

But I should have been more clear. I have not seen that type of gearbox produced and put into a production car since. The Chain CVT has comprehensibly taken over.

Thread needs either moar MV35 pics, or tits.

Car is now rolling on Enkei RPF1s; 18x9.5 +15 with 215/35R18 nexens all round. Got my old wheels for sale with tyres, heaps of tread on all four. Wheels have minor rash. $700 pick up newcastle area; 18x8 +38 and 18x9 +45. Pictures of both will be up soon

looks like this guy swapped fronts with you LOL

MTARD ALERT!!!!

Every time I see this POS it shits me. Not that I think the M35 is the best looking car but its a shit load better than a V35!.....and its f#$king pink!

18x9.5 +15 with 215/35R18 :blink:

A 9.5 with a 215 on it? You must be in the "stance" crowd huh? Its not my cup of tea, but I defiantly want to see pics of new wheels and how they look. Must have had spacers on those other rims.

Yeah i had 30mm spacers (which are for sale $100) and yes ill put plenty of pics up for yous. And no there is deffinetly nothing wrong with stretch, stance and poke

Never said there was, its just not my thing.

Whatever you do to your car, you do it for yourself- because you like it. Thats how it should be. Doesn't matter what you do, as long as your enjoying it.

Pics! I love RPF1 :wub:

Here are pics of the "stagline" with RPF1s. 18x9.5 +15 with 215/35R18 nexen tyres. Not the greatest photographer in the world but hey who is

That "stance" is shit.

I like the car, but get some correctly sized tyres.

Why don't you say what you mean?, lol.

I must agree - the stretched look just doesn't do anything for me either. The sidewall plays a valuable part in the way a tyre does its' job & a fit like that is compromising to say the least. One of many trends with cars where I don't get the point.

its so u dont gutter rash ur rubber mate!!!

I like it thats all that matters. Yes i have a black bumper, stagea front amd crazy stretched tyres. Its different and it reflects me: bit strange, different, bit odd looking and cant leave good alone.

Rear Window spoiler, thule roofracks with fairing, and smooth boot and whitelines sways getting done withing the coming weeks/months. Yeah I know its late but my stance is shit yeah better than having wheels two inches inside the gaurds and thick sidewalls. Your gunna love it when I attempt demon camber.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
