Didn't vote because I don't have a R35 but would be interested to know what industry the buyers are from - motor, IT, medical, finance etc?

Just curious not doing market research or anything like that.

Oops, just noticed that my poll doesn't account for 45-50 year olds - oh well, put the age that you feel like, if you are in the missing bracket. I know some people in late 40's that feel like 25 year olds but some look and feel like they are 70 hehehe.

should have added a "I don't have a 35 I'm just here because I'm a dreamer option" :D

yes you did with your "50 and under" option (ie last one) ;)

you didn't account for anyone over 50! which is probably quite a few!

"50<" is equivalent to ">50", although it is far less elegant, so yes he has provided for the 'older' people.

i didn't vote, but i'm almost finished my law degree... perhaps sometime between 30 and 35 ill be able to make a more significant contribution to this thread ;)

The quicker they depreciate Ric, the younger the age demographic will be LOL

medical, a lot of eurosnobs in medical though.

Damn straight, once I'm done with being an intern it's BMW-ville for me ;) Would still like the 35 though (just need to convince the wife that it's technically NOT a boy-racer car like the past few have been)

I want boost and something cool, so that limited me to an SL600 or a 335Ci....the 335Ci wins for many reasons (PRICE, PRICE, PRICE....oh and Chiptorque) :D

Damn right - which makes me think that the R35 GT-R is the ultimate expression of the midlife crisis hehehe.

This is prolly not true for USA or Jap since the price there is much better aligned with earnings of the majority of younger enthusiasts, but in Oz - 40+ year olds will be a great majority of owners.

I assume this isn't a photoshop, as the car is russian and they are just crazy enough to do that.

That car needs to be confiscated and the guy sent to one of those russian places where no one ever returns...

      Much less twat-tastic. CF wheels are too garish for civilised use.

      From there, as the manual says....assembly is the reverse of disassembly, no tricks worth mentioning Much better (for me)

      In my case, the standard wheel I had was in good condition but the buttons had more wear, so I swapped them across from the original wheel from the car. The plastic rear cover is held on by 4 tabs, and once the wiring is removed you can get access to 2 screws on each side the hold the buttons in From there I just swapped the wiring over. What was interesting is the standard style wheel is 2.0kg but the carbon fibre one is 50% heavier at 2.9kg. It even has a weight inside the wheel at the top to make up for some sort of imbalance in the design. weird

      Once the airbag is off, to remove the steering wheel.... Undo the 2 plugs into the clock spring, and the horn connector from it's clip. Hit the 19mm nut with a rattle gun (preferably) or if you don't' have one, you probably want an assistant to hold the wheel in place while you use a breaker bar to undo the nut Then, screw the nut back on 3 turns, and pull the wheel sharply towards you. If that doesn't work hit it medium force with a rubber mallet on either side, or possible behind if you can get there. If that all fails (it shouldn't!) you might need a steering wheel puller

      So, to next task....the carbon fibre steering wheel was either an expensive factory option or a chinesium special. Either way, I don't like either the flat bottom or thick ring style, so it had to go So...to remove the steering wheel.... First, disconnect battery negative and stomp on the brake pedal for a few seconds. Then, remove the small circular covers on each side of the wheel's rear surround to uncover the airbag clips. You need to push something like a flat bladed screw driver through, to push the steel clip inwards and pull the side of the airbag forward. Once you've done the easy side, same on the centre console side. You can see the tab you are shooting for circled in red Then, disconnect the horn spade connector and for the yellow airbag plug you need to get something small under the black locking tab to pop it out, then the connector releases......airbag is off
