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

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
