Hi Guys,

Does anyone out there drive a V35 as their daily and manage to squeeze the kids/grocery shopping in the back? I have a four year old son and his child seat will need to be secured

I see the boot is very large!

Im tempted to try and find an import dealership in Brisbane to take a look at one in the flesh, any recomendations for a dealership?

Thanks

Daniel

Hey man kids are fine at the back and is more than enough space for groceries...you can also fold the rear seats dpwn for larger items as well minus the kid/s though.... I have a sub in the boot and I can still manage groceries haha get 1! Awesome cars

Yep, I have 2 seats in the back of my V35 for a 6 year old and 3 year old. No problems. The boots are big enough for groceries, but not really for anything else tbh. I would NOT call them a big boot, but they are adequate. At least groceries from a Coles catalogue can fit in there. You can't quite fit 2 decent size wheels in there, which sucks.

13 & 17 year olds in the back, Sydney and back many times, QLD etc no problems or whinging, well apart from their fighting at times , haha .

lots of boot for trips.

I added APS twin turbo system to the 350GT and with its torque it is a quick family car :)

I gave my 350GT to my Son today and miss it already. If you ever want it to really get going add a twin turbo system, with that motor and torque :woot:

But I still have my R34 :wub: :wub: :wub:

Adding TT will bring it a bees tit more powerful or less than a 370 right? 200KW to 249KW I love my new 370GT Type SP, I love the new improved look of the headlights too

It would smash it.

Like to see some cold hard evidence it will smash it. 370GT is way faster than a 350GT My TRD AURION smashed my mates 350GT literally killed it didn’t stand a chance… Every morning for 5 years was another slaughter lol , and my 370 is faster than the TRD. I was almost going to buy a 350 but “IMO” the headlights are unsightly. Wack a TT on the 370 she’ll probably do 11’s

Understood, fair enough, agreed. id rather supercharger personally, anyway way off topic... Back too, Plenty of room in the back if your 5.10 or below.. as per post i'm exactly 181cm 6ft i couldn't sit there for to long i will get a sore neck as the back wind screen is quite low.

I know they say they were 200 ish KWs mine was 182KW on the dyno before the tune, did a soft tune at 255 kw, does not seem much but great fun. Had a bloke with a 350Z and I smashed it, he went and put the APS TT system on,haha Off topic :(

It is not a back seat for 6Ft + , they sit in the front on long trips , even if they have to drive :)

Have had my 3 & 4yo girls in the back seat of mine on 3-4 hour road trips no problems at all. It actually seems like it has more leg room for them than my partners 4 door bmw sedan boot space is fine for carting our gear around also. Very smooth and comfy on longer trips I liked the fuel range on the open highway 700-800k + per tank was good.

Only annoying thing was putting the seats forward when it's time for rear passengers to get out..

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
