V35 Fuel Tank Overflows
brentos_mentos replied to brentos_mentos's topic in V Series (V35, V36, V37 & Infiniti)
Thanks George, had a read and good info. Never really known how it all works, but the issue I'm having is that the nossle isn't clicking off when it gets full, not even once. Even with giving it breaks when filling and trying to listen to it while filling I can't tell when it's about to overflow.. -
Ok so, I got my 2003 V35 from the complaince shop just over two weeks now. On the way home I filled it up because the light was on for low fuel, anyway, normally when you get near full the handle will click itself off to stop you from over filling, in each of my previous cars I could get another 3-4 clicks out of the handle before it was actually full full. Now my V35, nope, didn't even click once which lead to over-filling the tank and having fuel run down the side of my car (not good needless to say) I thought it might have possibly been a fauly pump and or handle so I decided to just wait until next fill-up, which I had done last weekend, completely different petrol station (and pump obviously). Exact same thing happened, I even tried listening to when it was getting full but I still over-filled it. No clicks or anything again. Has anyone else had this issue? I'd really like to figure out why it's doing it because I like to completely fill my tank but don't want fuel constantly running down the side of my paintwork.

Mine does! I've gotta get around to installing an FM band expander so I can actually listen to it.

Do You Know This Body Kit/front Bar
brentos_mentos replied to empe's topic in V Series (V35, V36, V37 & Infiniti)
Looks to be the same one as this: http://www.carmate.com/product_details.php?productid=NSR35012DTFB -
I guess we could do if people are keen and have time. Anyone got any suggestions for places to go though?
-
Alrighty, anywho. How does everyone feel about Saturday the 26th of Sept, 7pm at Burnside Village shopping centre in the undercover park section? Everyone good with that? Idealy this will only happen if enough people are interested. Hopefully, provided we're all still intereted in doing this meet there will be: 1. Myself 2. Sikahalv 3. BurtoN86 4. fishinmilan 5. Dog with Bone 6. V35_Paul 7. GFXman 8. Phrenzy That's everyone that's commented in this thread. If we could get you all out that would be a decent enough turnout I reckon
-
Haha, I know the feels of having a black car. Only one of my 4 cars were black, the other 3 were/is silver. Maybe we should just help you out by meeting at a car wash? And it's not up to me, if it were I would already have them by now. I ordered them last monday when I did the rego so hopefully they will be here sometime during this week.
-
Ohh most definately! Also, Snap! I just ordered custom plates when I did the rego last week. You stole my second plate choice! We're almost going to have the same, I ended up ordering 'V350GT' in black/silver square front and rear. Haha, hopefully they're here before we do this meet so we can park next to each other. Ohh don't you know it. Mine is silver so I don't seem to have that problem. Mine also has paint protection from over in Japan so that helps a bit.
-
Honestly, I loooooooove white V36 sedans. Just a touch out of my price range so I 'settled' for the next step down. And yeah, I imported it through Iron Chef, I didn't even know it had all these goodies until after I bought it so I can't really complain.
-
How does everyone feel about something like Saturday the 26th or the 3rd at like 6pm to 7pm? Meet somewhere like the undercover part of Burnside Village shopping centre to accomodate people from both North and South of the city? Let me know thoughts people. Will try and make something so everyone can attend.
-
Thanks George. Pretty wrapped with it so far! A bit less powerful than my R33 but still goes alright. Sounds really nice as well as it has a full nismo exhaust on it. It's stupid comfy as well because it has Nimso suspension compared to the 33 which was on coils. The previous owner in Japan must've been a Nismo nut as there's goodies all over it haha. I'm just about to do a full fluid flush on her as well and make sure everything is as it should be. On another note, If we are to do a V meet sometime seeing as a fair few people have shown interest in it what works best for people? Friday, Saturday or Sunday and morning, noon or night?
-
If another one is happening let me know! I just got my V35 through compliance this week so would defs be keen to meet up with some other V owners.
-
Hey mate, they're Prodrive GC-010e.
-
Thanks lads. I'm so keen! Time doesn't seem to be getting any closer though. Haha I might get back to you on that as it would probably help me out a lot not having to buy tyres as soon as I get it. Thanks. It's due to arrive the end of July, so I'm hoping to have it by the end of August after going through compliance etc.

Hey guys, just made the move from my R33 GTS-T to this! So I'll be joining the V-series club soon! Currently on a boat from japan. I'm importing it through Iron Chef. 2003, 6 speed manual, auction grade 4.5B and 43,000 kms!

Sold! -
Bumpity Bump. $200 want them gone! Paid about $220 for tyres alone and have done maybe 3000kms if lucky! Surely someone wants some skid rims or something?!

Up for sale is my 1996 Nissan Skyline R33 Series 2. I have owned it for the past 3 years and have been using it as a daily the entire time. In this time it has never been tracked, drifted or defected and has been garaged every night since I’ve owned it. Both myself and the previous owned (35-40 year old guy) are non-smokers. It’s no show car but it’s fairly neat and tidy and in overall good condition for both its age and for being used as a daily. Usual wear and tear on driver’s side seat and the rear outer Hicas ball joints will need attention at some point. Have all service history and receipts for most if not all of the mods and things I have purchased and had done since owning the car as well as some from the previous owner. Will also come with a few stock pieces and possibly spares. Asking $8,500 negotiable. Located SE Adelaide hills.
