Hey All,

After months of searching finally got my V35 coupe. Auto with factory sat nav and premium pack. Got DVD player installed running through factory screen and FM modulator, otherwise stock as a rock atm but many mods to come!

Peace :/

Hey Guys,

Ive been on this site for a fair bit, well since i first thought of buying one all the way till now when my V35 is just 2months old.

Well, i imported it myself, like everything was done by me, i didn't have the pleasure on giving money away to people just to fill out

my forms and stuff, only the compliance was done by Tokyo Imports (Sydney). It was a big experience a tiring and stressful one too, from buying the car all the way to getting it on the road, but it was all worth it, i got my baby and saved a lot compared to the usual buyers.

Anyways its a Silver 5AT, base package, with 18inch aftermarket WORK rims, got it that way from japan, oh and i put a Black overlay on the roof, i think it makes it look super neat.

well, hope to be more active from now on in the forums!

HI all,

Thought I'd introduce myself after finding this forum not long ago. I currently own a 2006 Pearl White V35, Auto, 19" Rays Rims (Factory), Spork Exhaust (Factory) and leather interior. I've had this car about a year now.

Prior to this, I had a 2005 Silver V35 for about 6 months, basically the same except without the rear wing and Exhaust. After the accident and subsequent write off, my wife and I didn't want any other car. It was a shame, as the Silver one was absolutely immaculate and only 7,500klms on the clock when we got it.

It's great to see such a good community of V35's. When I first bought it, it was extremely rare to see one on the roads and the car definitely got a lot of looks and questions.

I'll post up some photos of the cars a bit later, unfortunately it's a bit hard to do this at work. :/

Cheers,

Andrew.

Hey guys just introducing myself.

Ive been looking through the forum for the past few months and now im pretty much ready to go out and buy one. Im looking for a 350gt coupe manual and will probably get it in the next few weeks.

At first sight i fell in love with the car as im sure it is the same with you guys. Gone through phases at looking for other cars such as an Integra type S or wait for my full license to buy a sti but i seem to keep coming back to the skyline.

Just a question for all you owners, are all the associated problems that come with the car such as the power windows and the other things common amongst a lot of the cars? anything in particular to look out for while im car hunting?

cheers.

Look for a 70th addittion for full leather "2003" TV and Bose. if you buy from private ask them to start the car for you. If He/She revs the shit out of when they start it just walk away. if from a dealer ask is they do a warranty and if they do then you don't have to worry about the chance of having window problems ;)

Just keep reading the forums for all the info you need

Good luck

P.S Get a blue one, blue looks great

P.S.S Wish i got a blue one

lol sounds hard to find but i like that half leather half suede look. Yeh im really want the premium one for all the goodies but when you're on a budget especially for a manual which is heaps pricey getting the colour you want isnt the main priority its mainly the condition ey. White is my preference anyways.

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
