Just got the mag from japan, so thought I'd take some quick pics of it as teasers... I'll scan up a proper high res version of it soon:

The ads are clearly marketed at guys in the late 20's and early 30's as a sophisticated car.

Waiting Here unitl 2010 for import, What a F**K.

I thought NISSAN AUS is going to start the INFINITY brand here in 2008 or something with the new skyline/INFINITY.....read somewhere on MOTOR or wheels a while back........

dayam is it jsut me or are the v model skylines lookin more and more like maximas?

not sayin it's bad nice shape n everything

or has the new v models taken over the maximas?

I agree I always feel v35 and maxima looks similar....I also can't really tell the diff between the V35 and V36...

I think they look ugly now..too bulked up

In Wheels magazine they said so far no plans for the V36 unless Nissan launch's the infinty brand in which case it will come from USA and be the G35 apparently some slight spec. differences. But so far no confirmation that they will launch the inifinity brand. Same article said 2008 the GTR will hit our shores.

Slightly off topic... looking at the timing between the release of V36 sedan and the much anticipated GTR Proto, I suspect that there will be no more V36 Coupe. The V36 based coupe would probably be replaced by GTR proto altogether with probably the milder "GTST" version to follow. But, that's my 2cents...

    • That ring thing is interesting how it's holding everything together 
    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
