I'm a bit wary of SK as there have been problems with him providing the goods after ppl have paid for them. I dont know if all this has been rectified yet.

I can not speak highly enough of him. He has been very generous with his time and knowledge in every dealing I have had with him. Much of what he did for me was not financial gain buy for knowledge of a new model.

i'm keen to get this up and going :) lets start it soon!

Xanadu grill & kit.

Very similar to the Balsinari or Kenstyle grills that is available (but without the Kenstyle insignia on the right side)

M35 Nismo S-Tunes, fairly cheap, buy it now. Says 2WD, but i think these may fit the AWD models from the look of them

Rears, yes, fronts, no. Front shock on AWD doesn't have forked lower mount, it is flat on the end with a groove machined around. Bolts into the curved, forged link bolted to lower control arm. This is because of the front driveshaft.

From what I have read, they are getting pretty good reviews in Japan.

I don't know how that equates to our shitty roads, but from all accounts, quite a nice set of shocks - especially for the price!

Soooo.... are you going to post all the bits that you think are a good buy?

I don't get this thread. I know that the premise was good, but how many times has someone had their eye on something, posted it here and called dibs?

...And if someone did call dibs and another poster really, really desperately wanted the same item, would they really not bid?

I don't want to get in a bidding war as much as the next guy, nor do I have the money to.

I guess I just like the surprise when someone announces a mod they bought/installed and of what benefit it is, especially if I was curious about it.

yeah as i come across some good stuff i post it. if both people wanted it anyway, then they would have a bidding war on anyway even if it wasnt posted on here.

plus, some people dont have the time to trawl through 98 pages of 'M35' like we do, so i feel like im giving them a hand :)

but if someone calls dibs on something, i wont bid on it. thats me tho......

and also if i find something that i REALLY want, i wont be posting it here anyway :)

    • So we have most the interior back in, and for the first time with one OEM speaker hooked up. The 31 is running, driving and now tunes!!! Hahaha yet another step for the sub that sat 10m under for two weeks!!! unbelievable really 👌 lots of love work and not giving up on her. Seen so many youngsters part way less, and in way better condition. I’m stubborn, thinking another problem is just a hurdle to overcome, One at a time. IMG_9277.mov
    • That is correct. I'm using a modified ABS ring and a ZF speed sensor on my rear diff for speed input. I'm running a Haltech ecu. 
    • Been busy with the newborn. We originally thought we were going to go for a third, but we're good with two lol. He's starting to actually sleep now so I've had some energy to work on the car. It's been parked away in the garage since late November due to winter.  I went ahead and redid all my head oil drains. I originally had my front and rear head drain going into the same pipe but have since split them up. I also added an Ethanol content sensor to get ready to run E85 this summer. Tossed it on my return line. Sensor sits nicely under my intake manifold.    I also have a lot of parts that came in for my rear end. I'll be swapping over to a 3.3 final drive and doing the GK teck anti squat mod. While the rear subframe is off, I'll also change every bushing. We're planning on buying another house soon with the condition that I get at a minimum a 2 door garage, so I'll wait to have more room for this. Now onto the strange things that recently happened... After changing the lower rad hose (It had been sitting in my cabinet for well over a year and was the last hose I had to replace), I let the car idle in the garage to bleed my coolant. After running for a few minutes, it started missing. Got much worst within a minute or two and then stalled and would not restart. My crank sensor decided to crap itself. No damage, no explanation, just died. I went ahead and replaced it with another ZF sensor but the heavier duty stainless model with a shield. Tossed that in and started right up. Has anyone else seen this? I hate when things fail without cause. Luckily this was a blessing in disguise... This lead me to recheck my timing. It seems I may have had a beer or two the last time I had set my TDC angle as I was off exactly 5 degrees... I miscounted a line haha. I was running 5 degrees less then commanded. It's a little embarrassing but helps explain why my dyno operator seemed to think I should be making more then 478rwkws.        
    • Sharing results from recent Liberty Walk R35 GTR, since they are still considered as somesort of a V36 Skyline. We do them turbos too.

The build list for R35 GTR enthusiasts as follow : HyperGear high flowed stock turbos in SS1 (G25-660 specs) Custom titanium intake pipes. Vspec performance titanium front pipes. Vspec performance 4" titanium exhaust. Upgrade fuel pumps. 1200cc injectors. Ignition coilpacks Hks intake plenum. Hks intercooler piping. Greddy intercooler. Greddy bovs. Top-secret coolant reservoir. Emtron ecu. Straight E85. Built gear box.  
    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
