So currently my dilemma is weather to dye my 350z seats (front) and the set of rear leather seats (for full leather conversion) black or the rears the same tan leather/orange as the 350z front seats. The issue i have with going black for the 350z seats is the dark grey rear of seat including handles and storage net. I like the tan orange and suits the car well. Hardest part will be matching the rears to this colour.

I reckon the colour of those seats suits the car very well Josh; just get the rears done to match.

It's a factory colour, not something random, I'll bet a decent trimmer will be able to match the hide.

Has anyone tried swapping the rails over onto stock seats? Assuming the v35/ aftermarket rails are lower? Or is it really the seat profile? I'm after some 350z fabric seats but they are hard to come by at the moment (nz). Thanks

Might be better trying to find V35 Skyline seats? There's was a pair in Sydney for $200 on eBay, doesn't really help when ur in NZ though I guess. I would assume more V35s were cloth as oppose to 350Z which were mainly leather.

One thing I like about my M35 is the leather interior and creature comforts of all electric adjustability and heating in the seats.

Out of the V35, 350Z and R35 seats, do they provide any of these features while adding extra 'bucket seat' style support?

R35 GTR seats are heated yes, fully electric adjustable and are very supportive (but i guess this is to expected from something out of a GTR)

To the untrained eye my R35 seats look factory as the leather is a perfect match with my M35 back seats.

That's surprising... I personally wouldn't pay over $1200 for a pair of GTR seats.

I've seen some come up on these forums a while ago and i picked mine up from a exotic wreckers in Adelaide.

The V35 seats I have in mine are electric and heated (don't have the heat hooked up) V35 & 350z are the same design, V35 seats tend to be cloth or part cloth part leather. I don't think I have seen any 350z seats that weren't leather but a wrecker I spoke to assured me he had a part cloth part leather seat set from a 350z in stock.

The dark V35 cloth matches the grey cloth m35 interior perfectly, and you can get the 350z leather seats in the black, beige and the orange found in M35s.

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
