  1. All good until some one rear ends you and blames your tinted lights.... Wouldn't like to deal with insurance them! Due to above I removed my tint..
  2. I had the stock OEM 18s repaired (gutter rash) and respsrayed by the seller of my car before I bought it. It turned out well I think... Running 245/45/18 rear 225/45/18 front//
  3. Hey guys, My door is broken. The interior handle and lock no longer function, and the door is locked (and closed). This was brought about by a child hanging from the outside door handle when the interior lock was being used resulting in, I beleive, the cable breaking away from the interor door handle mechanism. Now because the door is locked, I can't actually get the door card off the door. The only thing I can think of doing is to cut away the door card to gain access... but obviously I don't really want to do this. Any idea's?
  4. Hey guys, Wondering if you can tell me what this button does? I tried following the wires but got lost when it joined into the air con's wiring. It does not move the mirrors when shifted in reverse which was the first suggestion I received. Any ideas? Cheers, Marto.
  5. White coupe with carbon fibre bonnet on Marsden Road, Carlingford. Looking good!
  6. Mine has this. I use it in bumper to bumper traffic on the M2... probably not what its intention was for but it works well as it restricts me purposefully flooring it, which I tend to do, and reaching the car in front earlier than intended. Having said that, if I press the accelerator down 100%, it will provide full power.
  7. I'm 20, with NRMA and i'm paying just over the 2k mark with 800 excess. Just car's quoted less at 1.8k but only with a massive excess. Shannons quoted over 4k.
  8. Hey mate, I got my roof done by carbon demon. Gloss black. He did a V35 in matt grey with some carbon bits. He said himself that matt black would have been better but maybe this might help you decide:
  9. I'm going after a mercedes CSC - probably will be called a CLA.
  10. Silver v35 - bottom floor of CPB Commonwealth Bank Place in darlinghurst. I parked 2 car spots down.
  11. Thanks guys. I'm happy with the car. I believe it was 3m scotchprint vinyl. I am extremely happy with the result and would fully recommend it. The company who did it http://carbondemon.com.au/ - his wife and him do all the wrapping. They have a superb 350z in matt black, and a mini cooper in matt / red. I bought the paddle shifters off this website. http://www.tunersgroup.com/Online_Store/Works_Bell_Column_Shifter.html Took a while to arrive, but I've got them in my study ready to install now =). When I first got the car I was able to chirp it in second... but no longer =( - the transgo shift kit will be a must especially if I get rid of the mx5 and start taking this beast to the track.
  12. Hey guys, I've been skulking around these forums for a few weeks now ever since I bought my v35. Thought I'd take the time to post a couple of pics. She's an 03 model AT with 58kkms on the clock. Fresh import from Japan. I've gone from my MX5 ^^^^ to this - and it's a bit of a culture shock, different handling and i'm use to manual, but i'm loving it =). I've already been hit by the mod bug... these forums can be dangerous that way.. =) I've had the: 1) roof vinyl wrapped in gloss black by carbondemon. 2) The rear lights tinted. 3) Wheels repaired and painted matt black. I've ordered the following: 1) Cusco 1.5 way AT LSD. 2) Bell Works CF paddle shifters. 3) Iphone ash tray dock. 4) Motordyne Plenum Spacer Kit 5) JWT pop charger 6) Ztube Intake 7) Grounding Kit 8) Blackvue DR400G-HD (a little extra insurance). 9) Flip key from the states. Potential future purchases: 1) Headlights - the passenger light leaks. 2) Transgo Shift Kit. 3) Matt black wrap??? 4) Looking at superchargers ... =) So far everything has gone smoothly except I have a noise in the rear axles when taking off - ie when the drive train is under stress. This is my next project to tackle. Thanks guys!
  13. Brand new here - but my v35 is my #8. Loving it so far - looks like i'm about to be hit with the mod bug... 1) 98 Mazda Astina 363 2) 96 Kia Mentor 3) 94 Mitsubishi FTO 4) 03 Jeep Wrangler 5) 96 Mitsubishi Magna 6) 97 Mazda MX5 NA8 7) 96 Isuzu Mu 8) 03 Nissan Skyline V35 I'm 20 so it seems i'm going through 2 cars a year...
