Nissan Skyline V35

Call them this morning.

As I expected: Basicly They can do nothing on it beside used the screen as a display equipment and connect other device on it not actually"convert".

Go on looking for something else.

Thanks everybody

Funny that, when I was up there they also had a stillen supercharger and intercooler they were going to fit to the V35 and sell as a kit, but when I called about it last week it was still in the box as I left it last year. What a shame.

i never got around to fixing the screen up as it was all just too much of a hassle and would cost too much.

check my sig for cool spoiler and grille make a standard coupe look super hot.

To answer the question about why they call it the V35 and not the R35?

I read that the chassis number is determined by the engine designation. The R31/32/33/34 series platforms had RB motors and now the new skylines have VG series motors and are called V35.

35 because it comes after 34 and V because of the VG series motor.

I'm not sure it's always been that way for skylines, but apparently that's what I read in a mag about the more recent skylines. (R31 onwards)

If anyone else can shed some light, I'd like to be 100% sure.

correct

rb motor = R

VG motor = V

35 as in it comes after 34...

simple

The V35 has a VQ, not a VG.

As for the chassis designation corresponding to the engine, it fits for the Skyline but at the same time why would Nissan use that chassis naming convention just for one series of car? Their engine naming convention is consistent across all their modern products (2 letters / engine displacement / camshafts / EFI / Turbo) yet not every Nissan has the chassis letter corresponding to the engine.

It doesn't fit with the mentality of large companies. If you have a naming convention, you make it consistent across everything you do. That it happens to fit the Skyline just seems like a fluke; a similar urban myth to RB standing for "Race Bred".

You could just as well say that the R31-34 chassis were built with an "R" model (GTS-R for the R31, GT-R for the R32-34) in mind when Nissan first designed them, whereas the current generation Skyline was never going to get an R model. Thus it would never "earn" the right to have an R chassis, so they had to give it another name.

Its just as plausible, and just as unlikely.

Has anyone looked into if you can use components out of the current Aus patrol to get the Navi/Screen working in the V35?

I already working on that for more than 4 months. the answer is "yes" but doesn't worth it. chech my perious post for the options.

it took me 3 hour to fit the wing

dig 10 different sized holes on my boot.

1 of 20MM, 3 of 13MM, 6 of 18mm.

F**k it is hard work as the metal is over 1mm thick and very hard and my tool are craps from $2 shop

But looks awesome with the addtional break light on the wing.
