As nice as the V36 is, it absolutely sh!ts me to tears that Nissan is like 3 years behind everyone else when it comes to interiors. Take our V35 for example, and the V36 is not much better.

Sorry, it's much better than the V35, but way behind what others are doing in 2008/09.

the v36 does have a better interior than the v35. i agree, nissan is terrible when it comes to design and materials used for the interior. i'm not totally sold on the v36 exterior. maybe it's one of those that will grow on you. the rear spoiler looks bad....

I think it looks pretty hot other than that spoiler. The back is a bit rounder than I expected from the press photos I'd seen.

I reckon the V36 sedan looks better than the coupe from the back.

There's a V36 already sitting in the IMG's garage in Auburn, getting complianced, will be ready by xmas.

To be honest, it's twice the car that V35 is, a lot more powerful engine, updated interior: more functional and ergonomical. but asking price is ~$60k... Probably won't spend that much on an import that has no warranty no after sales support, and most importantly half the stuff in the car is in jap, probably won't work here in Australia.

Do u know how much they will be charging for compliance ? at 60 grand is still while worth it i reckon.

just pulled out my Skyline Catalogue-

Looks like the black one is the Type S model which is the 2nd most expensive varient. 4 variations in specs.

370GT to 370GT Type P to 370GT Type S to the 370GT Type SP.

SP price is 4,473,000Yen.

4,473,000.00 JPY = 43,836.31 AUD

Japan Yen Australia Dollars

1 JPY = 0.00980020 AUD 1 AUD = 102.039 JPY

This car has a shite load more features compared to the V35.

The wing has the reverse camera in it.

Also has what I saw in the Lexus GS430- the distance sensor while driving. The car will auto adjust speed and distance from the car infront, whilist in cruise control.

Start button

Plus more I CBF writing about at this time of the morning. :(

no idea on the compliance cost, but these guys do imports n compliance themselves... I dont know how similar V35 and V36's engine is, r the parts interchangable? as for the cost... i dont think i'll spend $60k on a car with no warranty, aftermarket support or parts readily available. plus the big big downside is, the main feature: the car's computer console is all in jap... so its pretty much useless as the one on V35s.

Can't wait!! Although not a big fan of the hideous spoiler.. reminds me of the ugliest coupe ever known to man (the chrysler crossfire) but I guess all the new toys will counter it..

as for the interior i think its on par if not better then bmw's.. they do come in different colours and finishes.. also love the new dash *drools*

to me the interior, dash lighting and seat design is on par with mercs... certainly a lot better than bmws :rofl:, feels much more european than japanese... i didnt get a change to drive it as it's unregistered, sat in it for a while and loved it... the silver line on the boot lead isnt a spoiler, u can either repair it to the body colour or use an aftermarket spoiler to cover it, certainly a lot better than the "pimple" camera on the V35s. only if it was cheaper... :)

give it time, they will drop sharply in price over the next year and a half after it is officially up for import for those that can wait.

For those that can't, like me, will be stuck paying well over the odds :)

My brochure also says it has 4WAS. Only in the SP and S models.

A heap of ergonomic design - somehow lining up side mirrors, with steering, with seat position. Also rear passengers sit at similar angles to the driver and front passenger.

So that what I can mae out at least.

Colors:

Red A54

3 shades of grey

a) K57 (similar to Pewter) b) Graphite K52, c) light silver K23

White QX1

Black KH3

Blue B21

in case anyone's interested, here's a video review of the current g37 in the US. looks the same as the v36 pictures except for the rear end which looks a lot better. this is the first part of the review only.

      MLR's Bogan cruise ship

      Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.

      I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it

      If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣

      I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.

      Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
