I was a bit uncertain about the Wine Red colour, but after a while it grew on me.

It's just been washed and waxed and it's looking pretty shiny, only depressing thing is the nice long key scratch along the driver's door that some inconsiderate person done a week ago :O

I'll get it into XCM (Xclusive Colours Modifications) and have the door resprayed in the next few weeks.

Once that is out of the way it will be into Seven Hills Detailing Centre for a full inside and out detail.

[[d a n n y]] - are you located in Sydney or the surrounding area? If so you'll have to come to the Thursday night cruise so we can check it out :D

If anyone know's of a highly recommended Auto Upholstery let me know, I want to get the M35 interior straightened out and in a few minor things glued in place etc.

That's pretty local to both Stephen (Bis-e Bee) and I, Danny, so we should meet up for that Thursday night cruise and head up together...

Stephen, I've got a friend of a friend who I'm going to go and see soon to get some interior work done on my car - he doesn't have a business or work for anyone at the moment, but he takes pride in his work so I'll ask him if I can pass his details on to you. He's local too, which helps! I've already spoken to him a few times, it's just a matter of getting the time to go and actually consult with him to see what he can offer...

Understood Danny, I had mine out on a cruise first day I got it lolz.

You are more than welcome to join us whenever you feel like it, there is always a few Stagea's.

Spotted Nick in the Jolly Green Giant :( and Ian in the pocket sized Fiat.

Probably could have saved some fuel and parked the Fiat in the back of Nick's stag, that's car pooling for ya!

Seen a Red S1 yesterday turning down the old coast road, had "staged" on the number plate.

Then seen a white one heading down south towards busso.

2 stags in 2days pretty rare for the bogan town i live in.

Spotted a darkish Silver WC34 at 6.30pm this evening at the intersection of Vardy's & Sunnyholt Roads, Blacktown (Kings Park).

Didn't get a good view of the front end so I'm not sure if it was an S1 or S2, but it looked pretty neat and tidy...... so did the female occupants :cool:

... hopefully they are not on this forum lol

    • oh they were with that motor, you need to remove the engine to change the spark plugs (don't have to, but it does make it easier)
    • I certainly fall into the annoyed camp, but glad to hear that if it's happening at low boost then I'm not likely going to blow a turbo and end up with metal shards in my oil. Just feels like it prevents me from really driving it without hesitation and "peak" performance. Wonder if it's the VCAM, it did an impressive job of shifting the torque curve and faster spool, but maybe now it's "too fast" and there's too much air for how open the throttle is.  Based on some other threads, will also do some reading on synchronizing the actuators. They are the default actuators that come on the Garrett's and I would think they would be set the same coming from the factory, but if the turbos don't actually work exactly the same way at the same time as previously mentioned, it would be worth making sure the actuators are actuating together properly
    • I went down this rabbit hole before, ended up sourcing a motor from the UK (I'm in Japan) which also didn't function correctly. With the original motor, I disassembled it and reassembled it and it works somewhat, sometimes. What I could deduce from all my screwing around is that there is calibration of the gears on the inside of the motor and two ramps on the main gear which activate switches that operate the motor and move the sunroof either to retract into the roof or tilt. Where I got stuck was that, it seemed in my case that one or both of the switches that are activated by the ramp on the gear did not always activate and thus the motor did not move, causing it to sometimes not retract or tilt (apologies, I've forgotten which way it didn't work.).  Of course this part is discontinued at Nissan now, it's the same part in the S15 but no other models. I also contacted the manufacturer of the component for schematics - forgot the name, they're based in Gifu - but they declined to share the information due to being bound by an NDA, sadly. Looking through my pictures now, it seems I last had a crack at this in 2022. See, I so kindly wrote "open" and "close" next to the switches. If you figure it out, please do tell me. Those little switches, with the red buttons may need to be replaced.
    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
