Finally getting around to posting pictures. Here's my 250GT, with random Taiwan rims that need to be changed, and apparently, a West Coast Customs GFRP bumper. I have the skirts and rear bumper as well but I'm already having clearance issues with just the front being an inch lower, and the rear bumper was meant to fit on top of the USDM pedestrian friendly Infiniti bumpers.

Took awhile to get used to it but I love the front bumper now, and its great for my Injen CAI. No problems with water, even with the heavy rain here in Malaysia. Just gotta be smart about puddles of course.

Hey guys this is my 350gt...Had it for about a month now bought it from my old man who imported it pretty much new about 5 years ago (with 4000kms on the clock) so its been around for a little while now..But now its time to give it a bit of flare!

One minor setback is the day that i bought it of dad (no joke) i got hit by a massive hail storm on the highway through logan.. NOT Happy, currently waiting for the parts to come in from Japan.

will keep you guys updated!

I was trying to work out whether to replace my US sized QLD plate with a slimline for the front and your photos have convinced me its a good idea :D

Awesome car mate! I would be spewing about the hail thought

What spec is it? Auto or Manual? Premium/Non, Leather?

What are your plans for it?

Thanks man, yeah the v35's had real bad choice of woodgrain, some were too dark and some too light and all were just so out of place with the silver centre console. This ones is way better than my maxima's wood grain actually feels very solid.

Actually noticed it had the blue in it after I posted (was on the mobile..derr!). Very nice colour !. Its like a slightly deeper version of my V35 lakeshore blue.--People tell me it looks grey at night also !..

Nah mate you definitely did well..I know what you mean my V35 Lakeshore blue is similar- seems to morpha at night-looks grey/purple & in day silver blue. To me, in standard trim the V suites this kind of colour and the black more than anything and judging by the comments of friends and strangers, the first thing they say is the colour ! Sure if you change the car, lower it, flash wheels, etc the whites/greys/other come into their own. But this shade is majic as it is & still gets stares and thumbs up even when dirty !(just hides it so well too).Good luck !!

Yeah wasn't happy at all! um its the Premium auto..

Definate plans are:

- tint the driver and passanger windows so they blend in more

- change the grill to the 'open mouth' style grill

- a set of Varrstoen 2.2.2's in matt black

- exhaust system

- new suspension

haven't really looked at major engine mods as im unsure on the availability of parts in Aus.. but will keep you guys updated

You and me both

Twin Turbo kits available HERE

Plenty of options really, can even buy the Trust kit for 370Z and it's a DIRECT bolt in affair with no mods needed

EDIT

I'mn looking at buying V36 370GT so you guys with V35 obviously need to look at the 350Z or similar kits

OHH and 2nd EDIT

This is pretty much what my new one will look like (same wheels and same colour)

Just waiting for one to come up for sale in manual :thumbsup:

Please anybody out there can help me out. I'm looking for anyone in Sydney that have a scanner that could read the trouble codes on the V35 350GT-8 2002model thank you. I have problem with my transmission, it will not change gear after half an hour of driving.

WOW, sorry to tell you Keng Ly, but it will probably be cheaper for you to buy a new car than fix your CVT box .... once they have problems they are HUGE trouble .... search around the net for the dozens of horror stories on these gearboxes. It is the reason I didn't buy a CV8 - as much as they are great to drive ....

    • Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in
    • Let's just fix the problem by f**king the rest of the gearbox.
    • Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.
    • How much does the shifter move when the car is in gear with the engine off? If it is more than about 1cm you need to replace your shifter bush. Your shifts will just get crunchier, not faster, with a short shifter unless you also rebuild the whole box
    • I should video mine, will prob do it tomorrow    Between 1st and 3rd, you could fit another two gears. That is how loose and wobbly it is   horrible:(
