cheers V35A wasn't sure if that would be sufficient, but now i think about it i had some led's stuck on with 3m before and went threw auto wash all the time and they stayed on.

@xntrq - some people just prefer the clean no badge look, I know if I owned a GTR I would keep all the badges etc, for me it depends on the vehicle as to wether I would keep them on or not. Every1 is different

sorry to hijack this thread.

I have had a look around on the forums (I do remember a post about it a while back but cant seem to find it anymore) but does anyone know where I could get the rear v35 badges locally (Sydney)? the full set.

Not sure about Sydney. Speak to Nuwan from IREV he's in Melbourne but he can get what you want shipped from Japan.

Not local to Sydney, but I see them pop up on ebay in USA often.. remember in USA it is 'cool' to rebadge an infiniti as a Nissan skyline!

The 350GT badge is often there. the 'SKYLINE' letters pop up a bit less often.

Just out of curiosity, I went lengths to rebadge my car. Why would you guys debadge it?

Good point, I have my 350GT fully debadged because i know that i am 1 of 3 V35 owners in my town so i guess it leaves people thinking "damn that's nice, but what is it?" that's my logic anyway. But same as what Joshua says if i had a R series skyline GTR i would leave it badged definitely.

Personally, I don't like the debadged look.. it makes me thing 'dodgy back yard repair job'. But some prefer the debadged look.

Just personal taste I guess.

I get that mentality too. Right now all i have on the rear is the 350GT and i get people ask me what car that is.

Yeah, i just have the front Nissan badge on for the time being until i order a black grill with no badge. It's funny seeing people overtake me and i see them staring at my car, then they get past me and do a 360 in their seat to look at the front badge haha.

^^ 360 degrees? havent seen that since 80's horror films

Ha reminds me of the xbox360 quote http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080814191737AAyxK2j

I can say Annabelle wasn't very bright...

Have you tried, I dunno, Nissan?

Give them your VIN and they can get you the badges... yes, all of them.

yeah the few I called weren't very helpful. The one dealer that had any inclination of getting them in said it would be approx $300!

Tried a couple of local import dealers today as well, none of them had any. So I guess i'm getting them from the US.

Nissan never have any idea about our cars that's why i don't even bother calling them. Last time i went there the head mechanic told me to go to the panel beaters to get my comp rod bushings changed... dafuq

    • Lol yeah I ordered the clips mentioned and as far as the amayama diagrams go i think thats all I'll need. Fogured id ask, sometimes people's first hand experience doesnt always match up to diagrams haha, i guess I'll wing it and worse comes to worse I'll just deal with it as I go
    • Thanks for all that information I appreciate it. To answer your questions: - Yep that's what I mean. These guys are professional painters to so I must be missing something. It's a bit hard to explain. - With the primer landing on clearcoat, I make sure that the surrounding clearcoat is scuffed to 240 grit as my epoxy primer says that I only need to sand the area to 240 grit. - Yeah so similar to the first question, assuming that the paint landed on the unscuffed clearcoat because I've seen that happen. - Yep I want to prep the surface in that order. Only reason because epoxy primer will protect it from rust and I need that atm with this crappy Sydney weather. I think I was worried about time, if I try to put the filler down but screw it up somehow and I don't have time to sand it off and reapply it then need to put primer later that it might start to rust again so I wanted to apply the primer as quick as possible to not deal with rust.  - I just deleted some answers, I just realised after watching a video and what you said about looking at the data sheet, that I need to read the data sheet on the specific filler I'm using. It's possible now that I put epoxy primer first was a waste of time and need to go to bare metal lol
    • I did. I went to a suspension guy and he told me because I don't have adjustable camber arms it's the reason why my car veers towards the left if I take my hands off the wheel but if I drive my other every day car and take my hands off the steering wheel it goes completely straight. I think it's common with Skyline's. In order to fix the problem, I likely need gktech camber arms then nismo bushes since I have poly bushes atm, then a wheel alignment after that. With my car if I take my hands off the steering wheel on a really bumpy road before stopping at a light I have to hold my steering wheel somewhat tight otherwise my car will legit just go completely in the other direction quite quickly and I'll slam into something lol instead of stopping straight. I Believe this YouTuber had the same issue and fixed it with gktech arms. At timestmap 6:05 he talks about how the car doesn't veer anymore after installing these arms.  
    • hello! does anyone have a schematic that shows how to test the blower motor resistor for the vac system? i believe the part# is 27761-15U00. I think the resistor is toast, but would like to be able to test it somehow before i embark on the journey to find a new one. cheers! 27761-15U00
    • I don't know the answer to this, but did you have a look at the parts diagrams on amayama.com and see what they list around it for your car? As an example this should be it on my car. That's how I would check for required clips and things like that. But, I take no responsibility for you ending up with a box full of random OEM hoses, washers and clips after going down that path a few times. This definitely has never happened to me
