Hey guys, looking at purchasing a V35 sedan in the next couple of months and was wondering if anybody had problems getting a hold of parts such as front windscreen and side windows if something gets smashed or something like headlights and taillights? are they readily available or do you have to wait for them to come from japan?

Sometimes it's cheaper to get things from USA, wholesalers in USA buys big as it's a bigger market there and they get more wholesale discounts. Not sure if you are aware or not but these V35 cars are marketed as Infiniti G35 in the USA. But just becareful when ordering from USA shops, referring to driver side or passenger side as USA is opposite to us. So always order with left or right side. interior like dash might be a problem because their is LHD, but door panel, glass, head lights, tail lights all can be purchased easily and abundant from USA.

A couple of free plugs:

Japan: www.japanparts.com has lots of OEM & dealer option parts as well as aftermarket

USA: www.riversideinfiniti.com has most of OEM & dealer option parts.

make sure they have it IN STOCK before you pay them. PM for why.

most of the electrical bits are correct. there are some though that are V series specific and are best grabbed from japan.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Ah yes but were you responsible? In the time I've had it (just before Christmas) I spun off the track twice and drove into things twice, so four separate incidents.. in two outings. Luckily I have a full OEM GTR front end to put on which is hopefully not a precursor for further, future, more expensive mistakes to come. It is some consolation that anyone who would want to buy my Altia bar would have to paint it anyway, the guards, too. (if they can get over the asymmetry). Hopefully over the weekend I will disassemble and see how badly things are bent. From what it looks like, the headlight has actually just been pushed back and bent the headlight support (which .. somehow... crushed the guard in). I guess the headlight plastic is strong stuff.

      These things happen And I believe "we, the people, who modify stuff, and actually use it, cannot have nice things" It's just a shame that it happened so soon after paint  I still win the award for quickly destroying newly painted panels I think, as my car came back from the paint shop all nice and shiny, until about 4 hours later when the boot was destroyed by a wayward locker that was blown around by the wind.... What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, and poorer.....dooh

      R33 disk brake size

      This. And also, the rotor thickness is constrained by the calipers. Cannot be much thicker, if at all. Cannot be much thinner, if at all. New rotors are....fairly cheap. Turbo calipers can still be picked up for sensible money. Arguably, the best thing is to get R32 calipers and put them on mount spacers on 324mm discs. That's about the cheapest and easiest way to get quite large brakes that are essentially bolt on. And that's despite maintaining for years that the R32 calipers are not the best choice because they seem to be more flexy and creaky than the others. If you were prepared to put up with nasty little NA sliding calipers, these will still seem like Brembos by comparison.

      Why would you not fit the biggest possible brakes?
