Could you furnish me a price on a parcel cover please. this is the pull over one right? Mine was imported without it, as so many seem to be (well over here in NZ anyway) Guessing I'm going to have to drop my trousers and grab my ankles (sorry for that vision people - right before a weekend too!) price wise, but I'm hoping to be pleasantly surprised.

I'm dead keen on getting one of these too, although don't bother trying to get a new one from Nissan - been there, done that, and I'm still getting over the shock of the price.

I'm keen to buy it but I'm in NZ. In fairness to the Australian counterparts I'm happy to let them have a first shout at it. If no one else wants to take it from your hands, could you email me on [email protected]. I'm very keen on grabbing it, but would need to work out shipping costs to me in Auckland New Zealand. Slow is fine.

can't check my email in the weekend, so I may not get back to you till mOnday if you email.

guys would it be too much trouble for someone to take a picture of the 'locking' mechanism on each end of the cover bar. I wonder if the arrangement is similar to other Nissan wagon's like the Cefiro or Primera. I'm looking to stick stereo gear in my boot space so would really like to eventually geta cargo pull back cover to keep stuff like that out of the eye's of the few that choose a different lifestyle than others on a different side of the railway lines.

Have a look in nizmans photos if you need any ideas on sub and amp placement in the boot while still retaining a usable cargo area there is a pretty neat install pic there.

nizmans photo's?!? sub...amp...boot...where where where where

:bananaman :bananaman :bananaman

do a search for Nizman. then check out his gallery. Theres a whole heap of photos in there to browse through. If you click the very right most of the five photos at the bottom it jumps across the gallery to the next 5 photos. Saw the amp install in there, and I had decided to do exactly the same thing to mine originally. Good to see the concept works. I was going to adapt it more a bit. It was originally going to be a solid box, carpetted in the same carpet colour as the interior to blend it in better. Solid box was going to have fans in it to breathe for the Amp, but the enclosure would also house my second battery. We have now moved to another idea though. Using the spare wheel well to mount the Amp and the second battery. Sizing shows it will fit in there. Situation is that ordinarily I won't have a spare wheel though. On long trips I will have to carry one in the rear. Keeps the amp and stuff completely out of prying eye site though. My concerns are moisture or any leaks pooling water around the Amp/battery in the wheel well. May abandon the idea and go back to the constructed box. To be done shortly though, before Xmas is the plan.

cool plan for your setup - would love to see it :D

why do you need a second battery? PS2 , DVD player etc to power?????

found the pics , thanks for the guidance,

I think i'd put mine behind a grill, defo, saying that the windows are tinted around the boot area anyhow, but i wouldnt want the speaker to get mashed by an escaped Sprite bottle after a supermarket trip, :P

Second battery is just so that the stereo system does not drain the main system too much. Allows you to park up at the beach or wherever withthe stereo system on, with minimal risk of a flat battery to try and start the car with for the trip home. Charges off the charging circuit while car is running, isolated while car is turned off, so the only battery to be drained y the stereo is the secondary one.

On the subject of bodykits, does anyone know of where i would be able to get a rear wing? nothing rediculous like the ones on a few of the jap sites, just a modest wing to stop my car looking so much like a volvo. i've already got a slight bodykit on the car, skirts, rear pods, front bar and eyelids, but it's missing the wing.

any help is appreciated

    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
