  1. This is my 2008 270GT SP Manual. I have been playing around with this car for around 4 years. It's been a real pleasure working on this GT, I have been very impressed with the Nissan engineering and the fit and finish detail (Nissan trying to compete with Lexis)
  2. Each pair of the wheels are probably from a different batch or a different time when manufactured
  3. Hi there. I sent photos to the above company, before I replaced my dash. They replied saying that there repair kit would not do the job. My dash was also starting too separate on the edges.
  4. Dash mats for RHD G37/ 370GT Skylines are available from Aliexpress. Nice quality, perfect fit and good value.
  5. I have seen on US forums, that Nissan were replacing faulty dashboards under warranty. The cracking/sticky dashboards on G35's & G37's was a big issue in the US, according to the forums.
  6. I suspect that maybe the A,B,C on the part numbers. The G35 dash cracked a lot. The G37 got sticky. The A dash was manufactured too dry. Then the B dash was manufactured too moist to avoid cracking which didn't work, hence the sticky mess.Then C dash hopefully was made with the correct mix of plastics and resins. So, I've decided not to apply too much protection, because maybe the sticky issues were also related to over use of protection products. Just my thought's on the issues ?
  7. Regarding "the sticky dash" in the V36, I replaced mine a couple of years ago. I tried Nissan Au.,Just Jap, and Japanese suppliers. The problem was the Nissan part number's had not been updated. So when I searched for the part number, it came up as xxxxxxxxxA or xxxxxxxxB, both are out of date. I finally was told by a Japanese part's supplier that C was the special ingredient. Contacted my local Australian Nissan dealer, quoted the part number with C ......... 6 new V36 dashboards instock at Nissan in Melbourne. I paid $1280 including freight to Nissan Tweed Heads NSW. I fitted it myself, took plenty of photos, and took my time, the end result looks brand new again. The best part was chopping up the old dash, and jamming in the garbage bin. Also did the English conversion on the centre section, with Australian GPS. Cost $1.5k from Russia
  8. This is how the fuel pressure regulator looked when it was removed from the pump bucket UGLY
  9. I did have 1 fault code, "which was missing on all cylinders", forgot the actual code. Turns out that was telling me RICH MIXTURE I didn't realise that at time.
  10. Hi there I had a similar issue with my V36. The problem was worse in stop start traffic, rough idle, revving up and them stalling. (But only sometimes) It seemed like the fuel mixture was way too rich. Did all resets, replaced most sensor's, and the throttle bodies. No change at all. No fault code's. Someone mentioned fuel pressure regulator. (Did a pressure test, 52lb at idle) So I removed pump bucket from the tank, BINGO the FPR was badly corroded. The fix.....ordered the fuel line return kit from CJ Motor Sport, and fitted an under bonnet fuel regulator. Also a new fuel pump. Problem solved. Try YouTube The Aussie Shed. He shows the complete job in great detail. Hope this helps
  11. Hi there John Clive here, Remember the fueling issue iI had, well, it turned out the in tank fuel regulator was faulty. So, I did the return fuel line mod, and fitted a fuel regulator near the engine. All fixed, no black smoke, and idles at a steady 850 RPM. I still need to have the new injectors programed in. I hope all is good with your toys ? Cheers, Clive
