Lads,

Scrolled back a lot of post regarding bodykits for V35 sedans didn't give me a solution as most of the links given are from the U.S.

I got a quote from strafespeed for a nismo style front bumper for my 2004 and he wanted $1100 USD for shipping which is insane despite that the front bumper is only $275.

So here it goes, anybody know where they can get front bumper (i.e Nismo) for the 1st gen sedans? Please help a brother out!

P.S. Found one from eastern states "bodykitskingdom.com.au" but they only have one option and it looks hideous.

The reason its so expensive is because of fedex and how muh room the bumper in a box takes up space wise.......all the major bodykit companies will charge that much. For sedans in general you are limited. Ive contacted jesse streeter about the nismo aero bar and its not that expensive even with postage. Thats why i am putting a M35 stagea nose on a sedan

Why are you guys looking in the US for body kits if the shipping is so damn expensive (not to mention the American definition of "bolt on" is very different to the Japanese and our definition).

Get a reference of some of the body kits (or other parts) on this site and then get a quote inc shipping from companies like RHDJapan, Import Monster, Jesse Streeter or even talk to Jase (Prince_Skyline) on here :yes:

Anyway, Skyline V35 Sedan

Please post pictures!!!! I do like the M35 front as well.

As for the carmate link, it says V37 and no other option. I'll give them a ring later and see what happens.

Any other interesting findings?

G35 sedans and V35 sedans have the exact same front, same bolts and everything, the rear is different because of american rear end crash standards.

And besides most of the aftermarket bars for the sedans are hideous anyway, only the impul kit stands out. The full wald lip kit is nice but very very expensive and the nismo aero bar is like rocking horse shit to find.....the factory bar with the N1lip off ebay also looks good if you dont paint it.

You could also do a coupe nose, it only requires custom fenders but everythibg else will bolt in and fit. The sedan and coupe have the same radiator/headlight subframe section at the front. It had been done in japan and america but not here.....

V35 sedan with stagea nose....

wowowow....I'm bailing out of the m35 look. Looks nice and classy from the front but the side looks like a BA Falcon now that I look at it.....

Yeah nismo style can only get in U.S. and no way that's going to happen...

I rang infiniti in the US for a sport package (nismo aero kit) and you cant buy them new. There is none in the entire countrys inventory because they stock depleted from when producion finished a couple of years ago.

Personally i think the M35 is better look, cleaner and makes it look less maxima-ish

      I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.

      @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation.

      If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.

      I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.

      AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
