I have an Infiniti airbag that will fit a Japanese Skyline V35 Coupe. I purchased a Skyline V35 Coupe airbag to install in my Infiniti G35 Coupe and when it arrived I realized that my car had two connections for the airbag and the Skyline only had one, so I swapped out the cover between the two. Now I have an airbag for anyone who has the Skyline V35 and want to make it like the Infiniti G35 Coupe. It will bolt directly into place and has the one connector.

My email is [email protected]

Please contact me if interested.

I posted here because there was not a classifieds section in the Japan area.

Can I suggest you post this in a Japanese speaking BBS or forum, you might have more success there, because most non-Japanese Skyline enthusiasts wouldn't dream of swapping Skyline badges for Infiniti ones. (Japanese guys on the other hand think the Infiniti badges are different [read: Infiniti G35 isnt sold in Japan] so they must be good.)

Hi Rezz,

Can you tell me some place to list this item so people in Japan will see it. It is quite specialized because the airbag now only has one connection. I had to swap the cover from the Nissan Skyline Airbag to the Infiniti Airbag. The airbags do not interchange but the covers do. Someone would actually have to purchase an Infiniti Airbag and swap the cover over to theirs.

This is ready to go onto a Japanese Skyline V35 Coupe, and will no longer work on an Infiniti G35 Coupe.

If you have any suggestions please let me know or if you would like to make $25.00 sell it for me.

Kind Regards,

SKYL1NE Alan

Hi DCD and thanks,

I think this should sell very well because it is not made for a Japanese V35 Coupe. The airbag has to be taken apart and the covers interchanged.

The Japanese Coupe has one connection to the airbag, and the Infiniti coupe has two. Now this one has an Infiniti Logo and only one connection because the airbag assembly is Japanese and only the cover is Infiniti.

Kind Regards,

SKYL1NE Alan

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
