Hey guys,

I wanted to get NIssan 350gt for a while but since i wanted a manual one forum advice me to get a series 3 manual 2006 350gt which is roughly around 22- 25k

then i checked the price of 370gt which is somewhere around 26-33k should i spend that extra buck and get the 370gt .. I can get 2008 or even 2009 370gt if i really do my research

- but I m not really a big if the stereo which is on 370gt .. is there a way i can change the stereo to a different one ??

- back spoiler of 370gt makes it look kinda prestige not sporty ?? what u guys think ??

- what are cons and pros of choosing 370gt over 350gt ??

Well if you are after a manual, the 350GT will be a V35, which is a different model to the 370GT which is a V36. the 350GT in the earlier V36 models were in the sedan only and therefore, auto only.

To be honest if the prices you are quoting are all for Manual Coupes, then I would go with the V36 370GT if it is only an extra few $k. Certainly get them checked out very well as you would normally be looking at an extra $10k for a 370gt coupe over a V35 coupe if there were in similar condition.

Stereo is tightly integrated into the vehicle so don't think you'll have an easy time replacing it.

You can look up my thread "How to fit an amp in a V36", or something like that. I have a bit of a write-up of what I did to mine. In a nutshell, I maintained the OEM head unit, upgraded the speakers, installed a DSP and amp, added a custom portable subwoofer box with its own onboard amp and use a Sony NW-ZX1 audio player via the auxiliary.

Pros of a 2009 V36? Looks nice, performs great, hugs the road even with average tyres. If you change your mind about the transmission and decide auto, the 7 speed auto in the '09 is really good.

Cons? Stereo was a pain in the bum to work with but worth it in the end. I'd recommend getting one with the Bose system fitted for the sake of making your wiring job much easier than mine was. I don't see any other cons with mine yet.

I have an 03 manual 350gt.

The cd stacker in mine has pooped itself.

G/box is fine though. I get the feeling that all this nonsense about synchros chopping themselves in the CD001 gearbox is probably a lot due to mishandling of the gearbox. I haven't checked yet, but was told that the gates for 3/5 are shared, so you really have to place it otherwise you will just crunch gear after gear.

The trim levels of the 05+ are a little nicer as well, so there is that.

22-25k for a 350gt? I hope you don't pay that much for one. It's a buyers market out there.

    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
    • Bloody apprentices! 🙄
    • Not sure yet.  Was considering speedtek because it was rated to 800hp, but when I did some research about him I don't think I will go for that🤣 So maybe giken gear set, but I'm afraid it won't be strong enough🙄
