Follow this link to seee V35 sedan like no other. (ignore the women in pushup bras at the start, the stagea boys got a bit carried away hahah)scroll down its about 3/4 down the page.

I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder.. but personally, I think that is ugly.. (the car, not the girls..)

Don't want to detract from your dedication though.. i am sure there are many hours worth of work there!

And the standard sedan coupe nose is better how? Atleast i dont have to worry about my headlights going to absolute crap with discolouration of the lenses. But its your opinion your entitles to it.

The only reason i did it was because i had damage on all the front panels besides the bonnet and i didnt want the ugly front so i went withing the nissan FM platorm family to its closest relo the M35 stagea for a new nose

I would have done a coupe nose but i would have needed custom fenders but it just would have looked the same as the factory nose. I respect your opinion i was just pulling ya leg. Opinions are like a@#holes; everyones got one.

Nice work dude.

IMO it works, considering the rear of the sedans aren't quite like the coupes (a bit boxier?), fairly certain it will look better in person too

Just probably won't work with the coupes.

Who knows, you might actually start a new trend?

No different from people with Onevia's / Sileightys etc.

Or even the R34 front conversions for the Stags.

:thumbsup:

I think I like it... need moar pics pls! Looks like the lights were a bitch to align, or is that a test fit?

I actually like the sedan lines and haven't seen this particular front swap done before, so nice one.

I like it because it's unique, well done. I do personally think those stagea's are ugly though.

May be ugly but the rozzers ignore us. Anyone feeling irresponsible can peel off a 12-13 sec qtr in front of them & they'll turn around & book one of you P platers for dark tint, lol. Plus we can fit half of your car in the back.

Don't worry, not many of us like v35s... :P

^^^ haha

Mark, I think you've done a fine job on the Stagline. It's unique & you did it your way :thumbsup:.

All that's left is to convert the back two thirds....

    • I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...
    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
