2008 G37/V36 S Coupe blue, 6 speed manual

Until I upload some, pics can be viewed here; http://www.carsales....e-2008-14146250

Asking price $43,500 with VIC RWC

Import Monster brought this in for me and can vouch for how clean it is.

Up for sale is this rare G37 S Coupe blue, 6 speed manual with factory big brake upgrade helping it stop better than a 370z. Unlike any other G37 this car has an English cluster with Klms, not japanese making a massive difference. Yes you can now actually read the messages and warnings.

Fully loaded with electric everything. Also comes with 2 digital controller keys.

This car in essence is a 370z as they share the same engine, suspension etc. so service and parts are a breeze. However this car has 4 seats, looks slicker and costs considerably less.

In addition this car is globally badged as infiniti which is Nissan's luxury car arm. Infiniti has just launched in Australian and this car sells for $86,551.

Here is how infiniti describe the G37 S Coupe;

The sleek lines, sports car proportions and aerodynamic contours of the G Coupé are born from Infiniti’s design philosophy of ‘Graceful Strength’, our very modern take on timeless Japanese aesthetics. The 235kW V6 engine is mounted as far back as possible for a lower centre of gravity that delivers incredible handling performance. The muscular exterior of this beautiful beast infers all you need to know – that it’s as much fun to drive as it is to admire.

I am the first Australian owner, had the car since October 2011. Finding a 2008 manual in like new condition was an extremely difficult and time consuming task.

For a second hand vehicle, there is no evident wear or creases on the interior. The seats literally look like no one has sat in them and carpets are like new.

As per pictures the car is in extremely good condition inside and out. Had a recent service and comes with a VIC RWC, but not the custom plates.

You will be hard pressed to find a blue one let alone one in this genuine condition. So why am I selling?

Work is now a few minutes drive from home. The car is not my primary transport and had minimal use and k's put on it, I have therefore decided to let it go to a home where it will be used and enjoyed.

PLEASE NOTE, I DON'T NEED TO OR HAVE TO SELL THE CAR, SO PLEASE NO LOW BALLERS OR OVERSEAS ENQUIRIES.

Is the touch screen in English or is it just the cluster?

I havent seen anyone manage to convert the main screen on the v36. but then again the cluster is where you end up interacting most with.

Bit hard when you cant understand or reset the warnings.

It's a lovely car, but doesnt get much if any use lately so selling it is the logical thing to do..

    • I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.  
    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
    • I assume clearances were all a-okay?
    • Shock tower brace is in +5Kw....LOL
