Hey Guys,

I'm considering getting back into a V Series and looking at the V36 Sedans.

Have always loved them, and loved the 2 V35 Coupe's I've had so no point in going for something else i probably won't be happy in :)

You see a fair few advertised in dealerships around Sydney so just wanted to see if anyone has had any good experiences with a particular dealer who has stock that you can point me to.

Please keep in mind forum rules, and this is not a place to bag dealers.

If there's something negative you know of, please PM me.

Thanks!

Thanks Sean, Chef is definitely on my list as is J-Spec who i used for one of the V35's and had nothing but an awesome experience with.

Was just hoping that maybe there's a decent dealer out there to check out as well. Yeah i know, crazy!

If only... haha..

Wouldn't touch one unless they had solid evidence of correct odometer.

Thanks all,

I've spoken to Geoff in the past and agree he's great.

And awsam I'm pretty sure I've dealt with Igor as well.

lol, after 15yrs with imports i get around a bit :)

Looking at what i want though maybe importing will be the go, as have my heart set on a 50th Anniversary 08 sedan, with the red leather seats, adaptive cruise and sunroof, and not to many of those in Aus.

There is one with 77000 k's all documented, brought in it seems as a private import but thats about it.

^4th that. But Geoff is in Perth so you might want someone local.

No need. He has his connections all over the country. All my dealings with him were from Sydney. He helped out every step of the way from the buyer, to the sea freighter to the customs brokers to the compliance workshop.

As the '09 models weren't being handled by anyone trustworthy in Sydney at the time, we had the vehicle shipped to Brisbane where Bruce Gearing did his magic and then he made sure my vehicle safely made it onto the truck I organised through CEVA Transport.

There really is no need to be local to Geoff to receive the same level of service.

Ah, so a more race-looking beast. Nice.

Definitely better off importing. Always best to take out the middleman. At least you can be sure that you'll have very few (if any) surprises because you've got all the detail on the vehicle beforehand. Not to mention the money you'll save in the process too. I just like being in as much control of the situation as possible.

yikes!! thought we already had some consensus on this topic.

Lets looks at one of the dealers mentioned - they're one of many that refuses to advertise VINs - alarm bells should ring.

NOTE: black infiniti badges and rare tail-lights. Relatively rare mods like this give us a good chance of identification.

How can we be sure this car ever even made it to AUS from auction in Japan? It has a government issued compliance plate:

I only just skimmed it, what am I missing regarding the V36?

Dealer advert = 31,000km

Auction sheet = 80,000km

Dealer also listing random, made up VIN number so that people will not be able to google said VIN and find auction sheet.

Dealer should have balls removed with vice grips.

Sorry mods if this is the wrong spot to post this but it seemed like the best option.

You guys will no I normally NEVER buy into publicly commenting on this sort of stuff, but haircuts this big are just unbelievable. I only discovered it last week and I have no idea where it has ended up, but please take this as a huge warning if it's sitting at a dealer somewhere. V36 Type SP sedan in silver with 259,000km on it when it left Japan.

This went through auction in May this year, and I had a suspicion that it would end up here, sure enough it has been complied in NSW on July 22. The 19s on it are fairly distinctive so it shouldn't be too hard to track it down. I'll leave the bloodhounds to do the work...

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      S15 Spec R

      By RP1421 · Posted

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
