don't be convinced till you've driven a 260 or a nicely modded rs4( some really good buys around at the moment)

I know, I know, but given that in 3 years the only mods on my R33 are a GTR exhaust, K&N Panel filter and the boost solenoid earthing, I really am looking at a stocker and the M35 is already producing way more torque than a modded RS4..

The other issue is, that the M35 is a bigger car than the C34 and that is the main reason for getting out of the R33 in the first place..

Well if you are not going the way of full performance mods (ie. turbo, injectors etc.) then a M35 would be good. M35 with rims, nicely lowered, nice exhaust and a decent stereo system is nice

a 260RS is a pleasure to drive (driven one - love to own one) but from what it sounds like you don't need a car like that...sure you get alot of people turning heads in a 260RS but an M35 you will as well...there are not many M35's around melbourne IMO (neither are S1's or S2's for that matter)

It really sounds like you want a cruiser car with a bit of power in reserve

Ben's got 3 other M35's in the yard. Tell him to take one off for you.

Cheers and welcome.

I think that one of them might be offering its rear window switch for my car anyway... Went to collect mine from Ben last week, and we all discovered that whilst the boot opens fine, the window does not...

It is just one of those things that maybe you use, maybe you don't, but if it doesn't work I know that I will need it one day...

You will use the rear window. It is much easier to open than the boot if just some thing small to put in.

      V36 2008 Coupe Wiring Differences with Android Screen

      By sausagepianist · Posted

      Hey all, I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.  I have a 2008 Japanese import V36 coupe with nav but without Bose. I bought one of those AliExpress android screens, which for the most part works really well.  The only thing that doesn't work is the air con controls (well sort of) and the factory reverse camera.  The AC can be controlled fine but it doesn't report the change in temp and mode to the screen, and the volume knob/other audio controls from the panel don't register on the learning app.  I am pretty certain that the problem is the difference in the head unit between base model (Nav but no Bose) 2007-2009 coupes and anything after 2009.  Mine is the one with the blue connector all the way to the right as seen in this forum post:  The reason I think this is there is one wire left over that doesn't fit anywhere on this head unit, or in the factory screen which also uses different connectors to more recent versions.  I've seen the upgrade from OWC, and have sent the guy a message on eBay but no response yet.  I also don't particularly need the whole kit, just *maybe* an adapter for this one cable.  Did anyone else here have the same problem, or have any insight about what I can do to get this working?  I have been in contact with the seller but all they seem to be able to do is ask for more pictures and videos. Minor edit to add:  I have been researching and found a screen on Aliexpress that actually specifies my head unit in the listing, so these things do exist.  I will contact the seller to see if the wiring adapters are interchangeable with other screens.   Thanks in advance!
