I think the Dolphin front bar is priced 300% what it should be and it's actually quite ugly if you look close at it.

Heaps of hard edges, brake ducts way too big, exposing too much.

Looks tough but lacks sex.

It's very racey and not very classy. Looks like it was inspired by a R34 GTR front bar. Not what I'd put on an M35, I prefer the NISMO item someone put up earlier.

Heaps of hard edges, brake ducts way too big, exposing too much, hence the sign in the pic.

Nismo kit beats it hands down.

For me the Axis Autech looks the best.

I really dig the bling of the Axis chrome grille.

It just brings that elegance this car deserves..

Exactly why im installing the axis kit and selling the aero. Just need to find a grill

12 inch fits well

So how slim is slim ?

I bought a 12 inch fan today from Supercheap.

Calibre 12v thermo fan, measures around 300mm across and 80mm deep with the motor housing.

Hoping it will fit .

Anyone remember how much room is in there behind the intercooler ?

cheers

Any cheap thin/low profile 12" fan on eBay should be ok. They all look same at all. Edited by YangLIU

Has anyone used a universal intercooler on their M35? Bit steep on the shipping front to get an HDi to Blighty, so thinking of DIYing. Just wondering if there are any snags (like outlet/inlet positioning) I should be aware of, or will the hardest bit be getting hard pipes made up?

I have with hdi piping. All up i think it cost me about $350

Thanks Josh, I'll see if HDi can sell me just the pipework - that would be a lot easier and safer to post.

    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
    • The fact that US/JDM plates actually fit the skyline bumpers properly is a big, big thing for me as they are the correct dimensions. Annoyingly you can't opt for a normal plate (or plate combination) in that size. You have to make up your own one, and at that point you'd still know it wasn't randomly assigned. 
    • Well, really, that's any ECU, because it's not so much the ECU that the tuner connects to, but a laptop that's connected to the ECU. You have to have the tuning software installed locally. The "remote" part is essentially just remote desktop (RDP) or VNC type access. Nevertheless, if you're looking to upgrade, then you're immediately in the Haltech/Link territory, both of which can be done by any number of competent tuners here in Oz. But without a dyno, you'll definitely also need a wideband O2 sensor fitted, and you'll probably be relying on "auto" tuning a bit, where you drive it around under various loads and then apply the corrections that the ECU learns (basically applying the fuel trims that the ECU has to do to correct the mixtures). Tuning the timing is a little harder. It can be difficult to trust the old OEM knock sensors on RBs, so it is definitely best to have someone who knows what they're listening for, with knock ears (a piezo microphone connected to the engine, and and little amp and headphones so the listener can hear the angry men with hammers who live in the engine). That is more difficult to do remotely, and I suspect the only sane way is to be quite conservative on timing. But that's OK. You're probably waaaaay better off with conservative timing where you are. What is the fuel situation? 98RON available? Or low grade jungle juice?
    • I see your point, I didn't think too deep into it, was purely focused on the price. There's no bad blood between myself and GSM, they acknowledged the price was cheaper else where and at the time couldn't match it.
