First bit of advice, buy one WITH premium it's definitely worth the extras trust me.

There are a few boosted guys in the V-Series Skylines section, post a topic in there.

You can find a mint black manual for around $20,000 mark STOCK. Turbo kits are $5,000+

Just beware you need to buy a JDM double din facia dash in order to fit an aftermarket sound system- http://www.ebay.com/itm/JDM-INFINITI-NISSAN-SKYLINE-G35-DOUBLE-DIN-DASH-KIT-DUAL-ZONE-AC-CONTROL-/251142407258?_trksid=p4340.m1850&_trkparms=aid%3D222001%26algo%3DSIC.CURRENT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D11%26meid%3D1818557018950828729%26pid%3D100011%26prg%3D1005%26rk%3D1%26

V got a 34gtt sedan and 350gt fully optioned premium spec coupe.... Get a 34gtt speciall if u don't know much about cars plus they are already turbo. 350gt is heavy on fuel and uncomfortable if ur a big bloke, but will be cheaper on insurance

It's heavy on fuel subject to how you drive it.. i get around 500-600km to a tank city driving. They are VERY comfortable cars, i have the premium pack with leather interior and i'm 6'1 and i could almost fall asleep driving they are that good. And cheaper on insurance, that all depends on the individual, your comments are very biased..

To answer the OP's question, like i said before definitely post a topic in the V-Series Skylines section you will receive a good amount of information on the 350GT's. I also think it might be difficult for you to find one exactly as you have mentioned as a lot of these cars are Premium models.

The good: They are powerful and reasonably priced cars, 206KW at the fly stock. They are very attractive cars, attracts attention as a big population of people don't know what they are. Very modern in terms of accessories and features.

the bad: they aren't cheap to buy parts, servicing is an issue as most places don't like to touch them, insurance is through the roof, suspension bushes are shit from stock and need replacing pretty fast.

I can think of a lot more things to mention but i'm at work and can't give a fully detailed post at this point in time

Lol 6ft 1 and 50kg wet? Or like me 6ft 4 120kg back pains and knee problems from footy and working my ass of as diesel fitter, so come weekends or time off i dont enjoy the 350 as much as i enjoy the 34 due to space and comfort?So please tell me how my comments are bias young fella? Or is it cuz u own a 350gt and nothing else that everything is all hale glory for your type of car? Old matey here asked a question and I just gave a quick 2c throw in on my thoughts. Btw hks do a supercharger kit for the 350gt pricey at about 7k for everything u need to bolt on

6'1 and i weigh 83kg. Fair enough being that big you may find it uncomfortable, but i assure you everyone else that owns one of these that is smaller than you will only have good things to say about the seating. Can i just say this reply is hard to read too.. I love the R and V series Skylines, shit the R34 GTR is still a dream car of mine.

I had the exact same dilemma not too long ago, ended up buying an R34 GTT black with sunroof :) whichever car you go you won't be disappointed 350GT is a great car but IMO it lacks the sportiness and personality of the R34. It's more of a luxury prestige car than an all out sports car, so really depends on what you want. Prestige and comfort then go 350GT. FI kits are also a lot of $$$ so take that into consideration. There is some discussion about stillen & hks kits so be sure to read all about that.

There is also a fair bit of variation WITHIN the 350GTs:

So be sure to know which car you're actually buying (year / trim / options etc)

But most importantly TEST DRIVE BOTH. It's the only way you'll know for sure.

Good luck.

    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
    • There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
