  1. Just letting you all know that the website I got the oil from is legit. 8 Litres (2 cans) cost me $570 delivered. Took 10 days to arrive and one can was dented in a bit but no leakages or anything. Here's a pic: https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=4768B4ECB5472FCC!454&authkey=!AGF79MnVLosAJr0
  2. I'm not sure if its different, but normal gearboxes uses oil to lubricate, the extroid box oil is used to create friction between the moving parts. So preferably just want someone that has done it before. Anything messes up and I'm screwed. I'll let you know if the seller is good. I'm guessing you didn't factor in shipping yet... 20L is about 20Kg..
  3. Hi Guys, I just hit 100,000 kms on the GT8, so need to change the gearbox oil asap. I'm going to buy the oil here: http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/onlinestore/item/10000682/ But does anyone know a reliable mechanic that can change the oil for me? Preferably someone who's changed the gearbox oil in a GT8 Extroid gearbox before. Cheers
  4. I've taken mine off, it was a while ago but I don't remember it being too difficult. Just need to take the plastic/cloth panels under the boot off first. The holes on mine are awful, i think it was hand drilled and they protrude up so the boot's not flat. still think its worth it. I haven't covered the holes, just left it. Tried putting rubber grommits (?) in them but the fell out eventually.
  5. Does it occur as you turn the key to start the engine? or after the engine has already started? Long shot, but could it be the ABS brakes checking? It usually occurs when you first start driving though so might not be it.
  6. got the same problem. can't get decent reception with band expander and stock radio. I've taken the band expander out a few time and rewired it. only got it to work a bit better - nothing decent. i've got another source for radio in my car so i haven't bothered going further with fixing it.
  7. If thats the correct price + shipping then I'm in too. but please make sure its the correct oil like nelson mentioned.
  8. heated windscreen. should see the filament things on the bottom edge of your windscreen. not very effective last time i tried, but i think its more for the snow than just a cold day.
  9. hehehehehehe..... thanks nelson. you are a life saver. bose 6 stacker + md stacker + other goodies + some good chinese music for way less than 700. i'm looking for a good MD recorder now to lengthen the life of my stacker. who know's, if i'm tight for dosh one day i might sell it and make a profit. LOL
  10. I kinda hope they don't. Aren't imports generally cheaper than australian delivered cars? If Infiniti comes to Australia, doesn't it mean that we'll have to pay more for our skylines? NOoooooo.... I'm poor
  11. They are probably standard GT8 struts. I have the red ones on mine too. I don't have a nismo kit, so its not because the buyer upgraded.
  12. Alan Have you figured out what format it plays? I recently installed one and I want to use it more often to prolong the life of my 6 Stacker CD. I need to get a MD recorder and just wondering the specs to buy. I'm interested in the NetMD recorders for the faster transfer rates from PC to MD. Do you know if the stacker will play this? Cheers Tien
  13. NO. Unless it's steering wheel mounted.
  14. i think they're made from wood. i could be wrong though.
  15. when was the last time you changed your brakes? had the same problem not too long ago and i changed the brakes and it went away. I'm pretty sure your problem is the brakes.
  16. you guys are lucky. all i found was 3 screws for the rear speakers not put back on, and a fat screw on my driver's side window that holds the bracket for the motor not put back on neither. most likely left there during compliance.
  17. Hmm.... anyone out there with a sedan that can comment? or is it just my car that can only do the driver's window? anyone you guys with a sunroof as well? i'll like to hook it up to that too.
  18. Hi All I have a sedan and after turning off the ignition, I can still control the driver's side window for an amount of time. Why is it only the driver's side windows? Question is, has anyone tried modifying it so that you can control all windows? I don't think it should be that hard right? It would be very convenient.
  19. how about this..... direct swap + a bowl (your choice on size) of vietnamese beef noodle soup? i know you can't reject a deal like that!?
  20. hehe.. worth a try. doesn't cost money to post on forums. sui loong bao was selling his whole setup for 500 bucks mate. had much more than just the 6 stacker. that 6 stacker should be worth nothing either new or old cos its a load of crap. offer denied. contact me when you are annoyed with it in your garage building up cobwebs then we do a direct swap
  21. I currently hold the "V35" plates in SA. $750 for the plates, or direct swap with a working 6 Stacker Bose. Mine's got the cd-f0 error bullshit. anyone?
  22. Hmmm.. $800 hey? I got "V35" plates in South Australia. Silver letters on black background. Plates are same shape as jap ones and fit perfect on our cars. Any offers? LOL. I'm serious about it. PM me.
  23. don't do it .... just another version of neon lights imo. when audi first had them on, they looked classy. but now i've seen a guy with an old 4wd have them on.... becomes ricey. buy a new pair of shoes or something instead.
  24. Exact same thing happened to mine once. Got a bit worried but everything was normal after that. It was extremely hot that day. Shouldn't be too worried about it.
  25. How long have you owned your V35 for? since may 2008 Where did you buy it from? (import, private, dealer): dealer What type of V35? (Coupe/Sedan,Manual/Auto): sedan auto cvt How much did you pay for it? 26G's How many problems/faults have you had with it (please give detail): none How much has it costed repairing these problems?: none How much do you get out of a full tank of petrol?: 600kms, in adelaide so not much traffic and i drive on empty for a long time And lastly, 0-100, how fast do you reckon? : 5 mins. too slow for my liking. but quick once its moving rolling i keep ahead of a BA xr6 turbo falcon but he had couple more passengers.
