Right...

Was it cost of the car too much?

No market for it?

Did ppl realise INFINITI is just a Nissan and save the cash for that instead?

I thinks it's there was nothing over inspiring about the models they had. From memory they were a bit more expensive than the equivalent competition as well. It was marketed as a luxury brand like Lexus is, but it just never took off.

i just spotted a v35

oh no wait that was a maxima

Stop trying to be a hero. Get out of here.

BACK ON TOPIC

I still have not passed one, whilst I have been driving my 35.

I did see a silver coupe (big kit) whilst walking through the city on Friday (looked ok, but not my thing).

Yeah, right...

So Nissan vs Toyota

INFINITI vs LEXUS (Rich Snob Spec) :P haha!! jokes!

I did notice Lexus is around a lot longer than Infiniti. I guess ppl just know Nissan, unless Nissan enthusiest, like all of us will only know about the other brand under Nissan.

so far only lexus is quite sucessful, but infiniti (nissan) and eunos (mazda) were not.

Oh yeah, what happend to Eunos? LOL!

Saw another V35 tonight on the way home. Again it was silver and 4 door heading towards Templestowe.

Spotted a white 03 infinity badged GT premium with stock wheels and leather trim today, stopped, checked it out, got into it started it listened to it really liked it but the owner wanted over 22 grand plus my 4 door GT-T R34.

Still liked it but just couldn't justify the extra 22k on top of my very nice R34.

Pity as even the missus was real impressed with it!

Mark.

I saw a white coupe parked in Newtown this morning, I think I have seen it around the inner west before. Once saw a silver (?) coupe that had some pretty major damage to the rear in the inner west a couple of months ago. Have seen a silver Infiniti badged coupe around Menai, and the same one on the Hume Hwy, both sightings a couple of months ago. Drove behind a white coupe down the Princes Hwy not too long ago. Can't believe how many I've seen lately, I'm sure theres a couple more quick sightings Ive forgotten about.

a bit late but i saw a silver coupe last sunday, about 2:30 pm on the federal highway on my trip from sydney to canberra. it was going pretty fast, i was doing 120 and he just passed me a few others (i wasn't driving the v35). doesn't seem to be afraid to get a ticket.

Hello all. I spotted a Silver V35 at the NOVOTEL Darling harbour - car park - Noice.

If you think its you, drop me a PM - I park in the same carpark everyday. Would like to chat to you about a few things... heaps of Q's/

Funny: the day I was trying to decide whether or not to buy mine: Wednesday, I think it was... Anyway, I went to the local shops to get some stuff for dinner, and parked next to a black Manual Premium with Brembos: just about crashed: it was REALLY nice! I got my stuff, went home, and confirmed my order for the car.

Whoever you are: Thanks! It was at Mudgeeraba, at around 4 pm, from memory...

    • Thanks for that Paul.  Do you think if I posted a picture you'd be able to remember where it went? 
    • Sorry Duncan, I didn't get a notification for the replies.  Thanks for responding!  It's a full Android device, but does allow you to use CarPlay/AA as well.  This is the one I bought from NaviRS on AliExpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006368602668.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.111.59aa1802JDzQ0E - the 2K 8G-256G CAM variant but it seems to have gone up by £170 since I bought it!  My purchase was £307.14.   It's not the fastest thing in the world but performs perfectly adequately.  It stays on standby unless I disconnect the battery and let it power down, then it's just a fairly standard Android bootup time from cold.  The DSP Equaliser is very nice and made the standard stereo system sound pretty decent compared to the stock screen.  Perhaps I can take a video of it when I get a sec. It *allegedly* supports the reverse camera, but I'm yet to get that working.  It has options for reverse cam (a camera unit can be bought separately) or 360 cameras (also bought separately).  To be fair it doesn't seem to detect that the shifter was put into reverse but I'm working on a theory about this as well.  At the moment I'm going without which is a bit annoying considering the car is an absolute canal barge but so far I haven't caused any damage I'll grab a picture of the wire I'm missing later today when I can get outside.  My theory, by the by, is that not only is the head unit different, but the CANBUS network has different signals for the different years.  I think this because I have a spare AC panel from a newer Infiniti G37 (as opposed to my Nissan panel) which wouldn't control anything except the volume when I had it wired up with the stock system.  I'm going to throw it back in and see if the screen will respond to it.  I've just ordered an arduino CANBUS module so I can have a look at the signals going around the car and see if I can spot anything.  I'm thinking if I can work out what it's expecting vs what it's getting I might be able to translate and relay the signal back but so far just a theory anyway. I also found this on my travels, so far the only one that specifically matches my car: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002822934280.html?spm=a2g0s.imconversation.0.0.33433e5fgttovi If you look at the picture of the before, it has the card reader slot, and the picture of the head unit is exactly the same as the one pictured in my original post.  I asked if they sell the cables separately but sadly they won't.  I didn't want to just buy this one because it's a super old Android version and only dual core - likely slow as hell. 
    • As above, you did refill the coolant and burp the system before running it again didn't you?
    • To be fair - you see the same thing for every clutch. There's always someone making an installation error.
    • Just saw this, redacted names. It's on a R33 GTS-t Facebook group. Looks like still teething issues.
