So far have 2 x R35s, and a possible 3rd R35 for a car meet in Sydney this Friday at Rozelle (8pm), plus there will be a combination of other cars Lotus, M3.. If anyone else is interested, PM me and I'll pass on the details!

Thanks for all the responses guys.. It looks like its going to be a 'short notice' but a good 'car meet'.

So far confirmed for tonight at Rozelle (Sydney) at 8pm:

BMW M6

Few BMW M3s

Ferrari F355

Ferrari 458 Italia

Audi R8 Spyder

Some Golfs

Some Mercs

Some R35s

I decided to go along. Was on the Iron Cove bridge and spotted a red R35 in front of me, so I pulled up alongside him, assuming he was going on the meet, which was only a few minutes away. Window down, exchanged greetings, but turned out he was going elsewhere.

When I told him I was meeting some other R35s nearby, he tucked in behind me and decided to follow me to the meet.

Thanks for organizing.

That was an amazing story Brian.. it was great to meet you and Carl..

If any R35 car owners are interested, there is another car meet on tomorrow night for Euros/Exotics/supercars..

Here is the Facebook link. Apparantly there are confirmed 8 x C63 AMGs... so far.. Plus maybe you know of him, but a fairly well known and respected professional photographer in the car scene Marcel Vermeer (CelSydney Photography) will be there

I will be going..

Do you guys sometimes go to track days at Eastern Creek with your R35s?

I was thinking of sending my GTR across soon to attend one.

I have only driven there once ages ago, the new extended track looks awesome.

I took mine there and ran a best of 11.52 at 198.8km/h mines bog stock I've got k&n pod filters on it now and getting a Mines mid pipe, will be interesting to see how it goes after that :)

What year model have you got Jason?

I got a 2011 I definitely won't be Cobb tuning it until warranty runs out in a bit over a year as much as I want to and tempted to I couldn't afford if anything were to go wrong, I'm only 22 and don't have the money like most other owners lol

    • I'm actually not sure - I think it was "Stealth Performance" (It really is near impossible to find a FEMALE 1/8BSPT to 1/8NPT male at ALL) but having the thing leveraged on a 90 degree angle on a small aluminium fitting is not too smart. Also in not too smart, I've drilled out the center of the broken fitting so there's maybe 0.00001mm of thread to bite into, so yeah. I may have to get it drilled/tapped/plugged entirely. Given I could conceivably tap a thread/adapter/pressure line in any point in the oil system I suppose it's feasible to run a line to the Nissan Sensor to keep the dash working. Do these exist in AN fittings and the like? Like an AN fitting that has a NPT (or other?) thread as well for putting a sensor in?
    • I would agree.  There will be an amount of boost you could run safely with an otherwise factory system, but it would be low enough to not be worth the cost.  And if you are reliving your 20s, you know a 'little bit' was never enough. Personally, if I didn't want to spend the money, then stick with NA bolt-ons, and maybe a tune.
    • Fuark, at least the motor survived. What brand was the fitting that snapped?
    • Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.
    • Measure voltage at the starter solenoid terminal when the key is at start and it has clicked. If it is really low, then the suspicion falls on the ignition switch (contacts or wiring thereof) as causing a voltage drop instead of sending enough volts to throw the solenoid all the way to engage the starter itself. If it is a decent voltage, then the suspicion is on the solenoid. Might have s horted coil, or might hva dirty contacts. Rip the starter off, dismantle, clean up contacts and inspect winding. It might not be possible to see if there is a short in the winding though. I have a spare starter here that I could measure the resistance of the coil, as a guide to about what it should be, if you need a comparison. <parts hoarder>No you cannot have it.</parts hoarder>
