hey everyone

it had infiniti badging, was a 2006 model, it only had cream seats front and rear [like out of anniversary ver] but the rest was black

def premium model and it was Auto too had 2 baby capsules in the car! lol

anyone from here? you car is very clean mate!

i like the front corner indicator you have on there now that i seen what they look like im going to order them instead of the flat style corners

Spotted a silver v35 coupe on the corner of logan & padstow road this afternoon. I was in the wifes white 300gt sedan.

Might have been me.... was running around fixing a friend's pc. Was it 1-2 or later I was out that way twice.

Personalised plates matching the car's colour? (don't post the details)

Nah didn't see plates. Was around midday, two guys in the front with windows down

Yep was probably me. I was in the lane to turn right onto Padstow.... Did a u-turn though. Note to self... turn off VDC before snapping into second, it stops the "No you don't" light.

Sorry mate I usually have a keen eye out for v35's. Was showing off as it was his first time in one. I am trying to convert him from the ways of the "dunny door". :thumbsup: Now that I know you are in the area I'll look out for you. Would have spotted the blue one in your sig for sure.

I saw a silver coupe today on the princess hwy around 4-5pm heading towards sutherland coming from the w'gong area . It looked standard , wheels , etc . I was wondering why all the back quarter windows are very dark tint and the front windows have no tint. Why dont people tint the front windows to match the back or go as legal as you can go all around. To me it looks like people started tinting the windows and ran out of money !

Thats called the factory privacy glass which is tinted in Japan and found on most imports nowadays.

It is indeed the factory privacy glass. Come standard in most mid-upper levell Japanese built cars.

We have that factory privacy glass on our RAV4 Cruiser (they're not installed on the basic CV, only on Cruiser and Cruiser-L with leather),

and of course on the V35 350GT premium.

In Japan it is illegal to tint the front windows even the slightest tint is illegal,

and therefore the privacy glass is only applied to the rear windows and windscreen.

You don't see them on locally built Toyotas like Camry or Aurion of course... because Australia don't have such rule.

Not my car, but thats the way thats the factory did it in Japan. Mine arrived like that also, but then i tinted the front ones. Heaps of Jap (and I am sure others too) cars have rear windows really tinted as standard, while front ones not so. Safety reasons I guess.

    • I'm running a Haltech Platinum Pro with the stock map for the RB20DET + tweaks for my build. When I started it this morning, the IAT was at 32F/0C (Outside temp was ~42F) and the AFRs went off the scale for my AEM gauge. I let it run for ~30 seconds then turned it off. I then did a smoke test, by hooking into a vacuum line directly behind the throttle body, and confirmed there was no leaks ( i let the smoke tester run for ~5 minutes / confirmed it was generating smoke before hand ). I then started the car again, after fixing a power steering leak.... and it seemed to be happy for ~30 seconds (was at ~11/12), but then seemingly shot back up to ~18 again. I then let the car run for a few minutes, thinking this was just cold start related, but the AFRs never came back down. I didn't let the car fully warm up, so maybe this makes sense, but I'm not sure what to do? The AFRs, when I last ran it, were normal, but because of personal reasons I haven't been able to break in the car. It was rebuilt last year.
