LOL. Smartarse :D

Hey! I live on a dirt road (and I am a bit lazy)

No refections on mine bud. M35 has a soft rubber/plastic dash.

No shiny plastic here.

C34's dont have a plastic dash either, its a soft rubber/vinyl dash.

Fair enough... It has been a while since I was in a C34.

Why the need for a dash mat then?

just to protect it a bit from the sun. my old R32 had the same style dash and after a few years of the aussie sun the plastic trim around the aircon vents started to warp and the vinyl layer started to bubble in a couple of spots. i've seen others that are heaps worse that with splits in the vinyl dash layer.

but i guess if your car is parked undercover at work and at home you should be right. at the moment i use one of those windshied reflector things to protect my dash when i'm parked at work.

Haven't seen one.

May I ask why you need one though? You shouldn't be getting any reflection off the dash due to its surface!

IS it not EACH TO THERE OWN :D ,if you spend all that MONEY on a great car why would you not want to PROTECT it FROM are HARSH SUN as you see how much a NEW DASH would cost to REPLACE :huh: ,& as i own a C34 & the DASH GLARE is bad,i am more then happy to PROTECT it,IF i can find a PERTH MN35 owner that would like to have it measured up so i can see if we can get one made & for it to LOOK good then please PM me & we shall see what we can sort out,cheer`s chuckie.

Settle down Charles.

No, it is each to their own.

As stated BEFORE your post, I did not think about the sun and in no way am I stating that people shouldn't get one. I was only interested as to why people want them.

Look, I understand that you are the one having them made up, and from all accounts you do a really good job, and that any negative comments may rob you of some coin... but maybe you need to re-read my comments before you get all hot and bothered.

    • I did a skidpan night at SMSP this week, it was much cheaper than $350. But yeah, you need to slap an LSD in that thing.  I put an OS Giken in the 370Z and it's f**king MARVELOUS even compared to Nissan's viscous LSD. So you're saying it's free now that it's a housing estate? 😂
    • Nah, the car seems to run exactly as it did prior, in saying this it does "seem" to be better down low, like more eager to rev, but that may be 100% placebo effect from intake noise But, I'm not worried about it at all, in the end it is a fairly low compression NA engine that has a well shrouded intake,  if it is getting hotter IAT I cannot notice anything negative performance wise from the seat of my pants thrashing it about on the street or sitting in traffic, so meh, car now now makes induction noise so I'm happy
    • Do you have an IAT sensor? It's worth checking it to see. You may be suprised how little gap you actually need to flood your engine with hot air. (I tape up my airbox for a reason) :p
    • @KinkstaahKrinkle paint the "silver" alloy, not the red filter frame Engine bay heat won't be a issue worth worrying about as the silver alloy blocks it off on 3 sides, as for the top, the bonnet seals most of it and the big OEM CAI intake snorkel is still fitted in its original position  I will head into Clark's Rubber when I have some time to grab some pinch weld to tidy up the alloy after I paint it As for performance, I honestly wasn't expecting any, the only reason I got it is because the intake noise sounds cool to my old ears when I'm feeding it the beans Sometimes it's the silly things you do in in life that gives the most fun, and I do love anything that makes cool car noises In other news: I survived 4 nights at sea with Jackie not throwing me over board, holidays are continuing now as we are currently chilling at the Beachcomber in Toukley, after taking the coast roads from Sydney in the MX5, top down all the way, Toukley is where I spent a good deal of my youth holidaying during the summer months, there's lots of reminiscing going on,  and lots of beaches and old houses to visit Next on the list is to head to Batemans Bay for a few days, but we will take the Commodore out to stretch its legs, then Commodore hasn't really moved for months
