Hi all . just bought a v35 coupe standard the other day .. and through researching prior to purchasing I lurked this site a little ....

I an the first Aussie owner of this second hand import and I have a couple questions i couldn't find an answer to by searching ..

Mainly .. if I just pull the wires out of the toll card reader and tuck them away will it cause any errors? Or will nothing be affected (aside from the Japanese lady's voice that comes up every time I start the car?

Secondly ,, there is a little sensor (looks aftermarket from japan ) in the centre of my dash up against the front window that looks to me to be a gps antenna ... is that what it is? Is it part of the toll card system and can I use it to connect to an aftermarket HU with gps?

It might be worth mentioning that my car has no screen , already has an aftermarket single din pioneer from japan which I will be swapping with an au aftermarket unit soon..

Thanks in advance for any replies!!

Mine already had the toll card reader removed and a standard glove box housing fitted when I bought it (2nd owner in Aust). The only reason I know it had the reader is all the documentation for it was still in the handbook.

It also had a small black square antenna mounted on the dash, hard up against the windscreen. I recently removed it and it was connected to nothing, so I assumed it was the antenna for the Toll card.

isn't that square antenna the sensor for the auto headlights??

Mine wasn't as it wasn't connected to anything. my auto headlights still work fine.

I would have expected the auto headlight sensor is intergrated into the dash? This antenna has been added on top of the dash with its own wiring tucked behind the dash.

hi . I'm not sure I have auto headlights...? Unless there just turned off .. lights don't go on when I drive into the garage like my commodore did .

If you have auto headlights, you need to turn the headlight switch to the first position to put them in 'auto' mode.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
