Hello all. I am soon to be replacing my V35 250GT sedan with a HY34 gloria for the extra power, looks and luxury.

I getting more familiar with the VQ engines as I go along so I was just wondering for a general service what I use.

My VQ25DD I have now uses a Z445/436 Rico oil filter and 10w40 synthetic?

And the ATF is just a general ATF fluid

Are they the same.

Also brakes. Rotors and pads? Are they shared with other models or unique to the Y34.

Any information would be greatly appreciated

Z436 filter. 10W40.

from what i could find on the interwebs: ATF is fine on the 4AT.

few people confused over pads and rotors, so cant confirm. only information was for M45's which may or may not be the same calipers.

currently looking at wheel sizes for these and people are fitting huge wheels but im concerned about hitting suspension or needing guards rolled.

nissan website indicates 215/50R17's fitted to stock wheel... so im thinking 19x9's if fits without stretched tyres (not sure on what offset though).

I suppose I can always find a part number for factory rotors and pads and run them again other models and if they're the same I'll know.

Are the diffs open or VLSD?

Thanks for the help guys.

Get on www.aus-vip.com, several Y34 owners on there and specs etc to help you out. Also details on fitment for Y34's/M45 USD version on www.rimtuck.com

Oh sweet Thanks man. I have V35 rays I'm going to put on 18x8.5 +33 and 18x8 +30 which I think should be fine.

Thanks again appreciate it.

[BurtoN86]

No problem at all but yeah, get on aus-vip for help and helpful info

[Howaitonaito]

Had a look around aus VIP and a whole lot of information was there thank you.

Was missing what discs I need. Are they R34 turbo or non turbo brakes?

[BurtoN86]

I suggest you just take your current discs into a brake joint and get them to match them up Easiest way to get the right ones!

[Howaitonaito]

I found some on import monster so its all good. I didn't even think about that before.

just an update on compliance... Autoproject from Braeside, VIC are complying my gloria once it arrives. $2500 for compliance and charging me $500 for import approval application. I dont really trust them and they're communication is bit sketchy but dont really have a choice at the moment. we'll see what happens.

in regards to CVT:

buy from here http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/onlinestore/item/10000682/

$850 delivered. less than 2 weeks delivery. trying to source a service kit from cvt.co.nz

im hoping that with some TLC and maintenance/correct information I can restore faith in the CVT's in Aus, after someone here was very vocal about their experience (which could just be bad luck and a reliance on workshops/misinformation)

[Leroy Peterson]

group buy for a Y34 Instant Gentlemen Kit in Aus if anyone is interested... the more people, the cheaper it gets!
