James - V36 Owner (WA)

Hi folks,

About time I introduced myself after sapping up so much information from this fine site for so long!  I got myself an 08 CKV36 Type SP, 6spd in February (I think) of this year.  It has been a faithful daily for it's life and I've dumped 18,000kms on it since I've owned it.  

It's fully bolted, tuned and sits around 265kW at the flywheel.  It's on Cusco springs and shocks, has shitty modded headlights that are a pain in the arse, an IPL front lip, and is sitting on 19" Rays VR-G2s (245 at the front, 275 at the back).  It also has a nice carbon fibre rear diffuser!

I am looking to get new headlights sorted by OneightyNYC very soon, as well as a brake upgrade and front sway bar, and when "funds" (girlfriend) permit this is getting supercharged.  Also, as is the case with 99% of the people with V36's, have my navi looked at!

I have a couple of photos attached below, and if anyone has any opinion or thoughts let them flow!  I'm always open to new ideas, especially in the wonderful world of automotive.

 

James.

Sedan is good! Good car, good value =) could do with a tad more torque but you know, can't have everything haha. Done much to yours?

With sway bars, I recommend Hotchkis front and rear, strong and light. Very good stuff.

350GT Sedan. The first gen of the V36s. Kinda wished I had spent the extra $5k for the newer 370GT.

If you want headlights to be done in Australia, I can send you a contact in Sydney. He does it really well. PM me for more info :)

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.

      I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Rezz · Posted

      Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.

      Noobie Stagea owner..

      Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
