dimi108 Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 Sweet. Hoping to pick up the car tomorrow after work Thanks Iain. Looking forward to owning and driving the M35. I can't believe their a 2002 model. They look so modern. What's the go with the flutter on this video? Is this just because that part of the intake pipe was removed?

andy65b Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 Non standard BOV creates the flutter.... but be warned it is a sure way to attract the attention of the police and nice little fine.

dimi108 Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 I see. I would've thought it was the BOV blocked off that was causing the flutter. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/185569-m35-info/page/36/#findComment-5329993 Share on other sites More sharing options...

dimi108 Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 (edited) Fair enough. One thing that impressed me about the M35 was the factory sound system. The bass is so rich and clear and mine doesn't even have the optional sub. Even on one of the loudest settings, there was no distortion. Are all M35's fitted with Bose systems? Or only the ones with the optional subs?

RS models have a Clarion unit (I agree its sound is quite impressive for a base unit), but I am unsure what the standard integrated unit was for the RX, ARX and Axis.

It looks like the Bose but I think it is also a Clarion unit packaged in the same way.

Spong Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 It looks like the Bose but I think it is also a Clarion unit packaged in the same way. The Series 2 M35 RX models like mine, have a single DIN Panasonic (CD/Mini Disc) head unit as the standard option, with an integrated double DIN sized unit (possibly Clarion or Bose) as the alternative option.

zei20l Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 the factory sub is a great unit! i have one, not hooked up tho sits in the spare tyre in the boot Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/185569-m35-info/page/36/#findComment-5330856 Share on other sites More sharing options...
dimi108 Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Haha cool. Are the stock unit's (without the Bose sub woofer) powered by an external amp hidden somewhere?

dimi108 Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 Picked up the M35 yesterday. Superb car. Very comfortable, has good power and very modern. Just curious on why the air filter intake features a window that can be removed to expose the filter like a pod filter? Any reason behind this? Or is it purposely like this so you can have the option of exposing the filter?

andy65b Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 It is the same air box as used on the V35 that has a "power duct" fitted in this spot for the NA motor. Many M35 owners have opened this spot up. Some have been to Nissan for the "power duct" ($180) and other have made their own way of sealing the box from hot air from the motor.

dimi108 Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 Nice. Thanks for the info, Andy. I've removed mine and left the filter exposed now. The intake sounds nice. A lot "deeper" when accelerating (especially up a hill) and the car has more response in 2nd (no placebo effect). Pretty good aye.

Blade NZ Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 Just got new front shocks put in the M35 and they feel great. Shocks are KYB 350z premiums and at NZ$225 ea. they are a bargain. Definitely feel better than stock and way cheaper than OEM replacements from Nissan.

STAG250 Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 My steptronic's playing up. Intermiitemtly will stay in 4 with no change possible. In D will not engage o/d I think but appears to be attempting to as it surges a bit. I have had pressure switch fault code when I had it checked. Anyone else had this issue? still doing it: can't get any code out of it this year but last year was showing the pressure switch thing always seems to fail coming up to the big climbs - just when you meed it most as my extended warranty expires in January I need to get onto this and can't just keep throwing dollars at inconclusive diagnostics can anyone suggest a cause? your help is appreciated Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/185569-m35-info/page/36/#findComment-5360802 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunc Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 If youre looking to get a new key cut, the genuine nissan part for a key without the remote central locking component has the part number H0564-AU000; I bought them off an ebay seller for $33 plus shipping. Unsure if it was a good deal, but it was convenient. According to a quick google search, Sterling Nissan in the Adelaide Hills may have some blanks - unsure what price theyre asking. A 10 point 'Nismo' key should also work, if you can find one.

dimi108 Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Nice avatar Duncan Fellas, does anyone else here feel that their M35 has a bit of a slow reaction with the kickdown of the throttle when you need to accelerate?
