I just checked out your photos after I read your post about 260RS and sent PM

Is that colour a factory colour?

Thought that a V35 in a colour like the ford XR purple would look good.

Like the newstyle blue coupe in your photos too

Cheers

look nice in  this blue.. 2004 model

Heya Jake - from that pic it looks like you're surfin the auctions - cool... any info you can give the rest of us on what the sale YEN on these is going around abouts for the different models? Keen on a fully optioned manual - but got no idea what the auction sales are going for on average... be good to know so we can then do our own driveaway estimates (and also help guessing reasonable caryard prices)... $XX @ auction + shipping + compliance + duties etc etc.

Cheers if you can dig up some auction sales history!?

Never seen these cars before.  What's the go with them performance and options wise ??

Anyone got some interior pics ?

J

Hiya Jay

HEAPS of pics in my gallery, including interiors, body kits, different rim looks etc... go have a squiz :P

Performance...

took one for a "spin" yesterday... and yeah thats the word for it - big torque from the 3.5... tyre chirps from an auto that I wasnt pushing too hard with the dealer in the passenger seat lol - I liked... and that was with a heavily choked exhaust for emission testing ;) Nice throaty growl to it too. Supposedly do 14 second passes stock. Same engine as the 350Z... in fact the critics calling it a 4-seater 350Z arent too far off the mark I spose - though Ill never admit it :D Plenty of modding fun to be had too... there are heaps of companies doing bolt on supercharger kits, and a couple of aussie mod shops like APS doing twin turbo mods to the engine that are fully ADR approved!

Optional extras.. HEAPS...

Factory aero kit option; 18" wheel package option; Bose sound package option; factory driving lights; sunroof; DVD Sat Nav (lifts motorised from behind centre console like in R34 GTT option); 6 spd manual or 5 MA/T (which I drove and it changes sooo sweetly); manual comes std with Brembos but auto doesnt; leather option; prob loads more

Then theres the aftermarket stuff - which is EXTENSIVE... these have been out for a few years in Japan and they are into a Series 2 already - so loads of goodies available from loads of the normal mod companies! :)

We need to ask the site admins for a specific V35 section once we have a few owners me thinks - coz they are just so different from the RB skylines.

Cheers

Adam

What are these retailing for?

landed and complied ...silver 19k grade4 approx$38k...same for 03 pearl grade 4.5 ....OR

black stagea axsis grade 5 2002 @ about $37k

all auto`s

that my esimated cost anyway.

.couple of 6 speed coupes up tomorrow ..see how much difference that has on price...

also not that many for sale ..that you could buy..ie:2004 6000klm,grade 6 ..near new

Mmmm Axis looks tasty - pity all the RAWS Ive asked arent even thinking about starting the compliance process for them yet ;) You know any different goss Jake?

Thanks for the price info... be good to see if the manual coupes go for any more or less. Gives me a good idea of what to set my budget at through the car yards ... cheers Jake.

And Jay - yeah its surprising but most of the pics I seem to find are of the USA verion called the Infinity G35... but the Jap imports will be right hand drive :)

Here's a few of the many links starting to fill up my "Favourites" folder, for people starting to think about the V35...

Great find - that site is awesome! Has everything!! Even has sound clips of tonnes of exhaust types fitted to the VQ35DE!!!

Aaargh - colour picking is so hard on these cars. Gotta put my colour preferences on my V35 order in a couple of weeks... my leanings at the moment are, in order of preference...

1st Black

2nd Silver

3rd Blue

4th Gunmetal / Metallic Grey

I think Id be happy with any of those 4 colours... the black is first pref at the moment, but I have the blue itching at me a bit that might see it rise up in the order a bit by the time I have to finalise deciding...

hmmm

    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
