Old thread I know but I thought I'd post a reply in case any V35 owner is still interested. This is a dashmat I got for my Stag M35 Series 2 which should fit a later (Series 2,3 ?) V35 Skyline as well. It might also fit a Series 1.

I got it from a US company called Dash Designs. Basically it's a 2005 Infiniti G35 dash cover custom made for right hand drive. I took a punt buying it as the G35 is essentially a left hand drive Skyline V35 and the V35 appears to have the same dash as the Stagea. Well, it fits perfectly, which means the V35 and M35 dash's must be identical. It has a cut-out for the auto headlight sensor but it doesn't have one for the passenger side sensor, which I'm not sure if it is a sensor at all. I also need to confirm that it doesn't affect the passenger airbag (It's really lightweight so I guess it wouldn't). The lump above the clock is a sensor (ETC?) of some sort which I hope to remove once I know it's not important. The mat is not stuck down at the moment. The small separate piece over the instrument binnacle definitely needs some velcro to hold it in place.

What I'm not sure of is whether it will fit a Series 1 M35 or V35 given they have a different clock surround and binnacle surround to the Series 2. The earlier model G35 in the US has an analogue clock below the climate control display so it would look odd.

Anyway the company was really helpful, they have many different fabrics and colours and can also embroid a logo or word on it. My one is a perforated suede look which ties in perfectly with the perforated leather seats and door trim.

Cheers

I actually ordered two - one in a different fabric (Dash tex, which is like a weave). One was $65 and the other $51 (don't know which was which) and postage/handling was $40 all in USD so it actually came in a few dollars cheaper in AUD. The embroidery can be done for around $11 located on the passenger side in any colour. There is also a velour (slightly cheaper) and a brushed suede which I reckon would go great with the black half leather trim some V35s have.

I would be happy to enquire about a group buy if there was any interest.

What I would really like to know is whether it will suit the earlier M//V35s. If anyone in the Canberra region with a Series 1 wants to try it, I would be happy to meet up.

The main reason I got it was to stop the vinyl sweating and filming up on the windscreen all the time.

Cheers

    • Use a 2' length of hose (that's 2 foot, not 2 inches) as a stethoscope to localise the source of the ticking. From cam covers? From exhaust or turbo manifold gasket? From injectors? From lower down in the engine? Etc. Use a timing light to set the timing. Put Redline Lightweight Shockproof in the box. It's not the very best thing for the box, but it will take a box that refuses to engage a gear with other oil, and make it engage a gear. I had to put it in when I installed the R33 box I have in my car. It would not select ANY gear when running. Smurf jizz made it work. That was >10 years ago and I still use it. I'm stuck with it now. Failing that - rebuild the box.
    • Well done Duncan. The fuel tank bulkhead lid is also in great condition (some of mine were stuffed). These are now out of production and good ones like that are becoming hard to come by.
    • Wow that's a steal, you've done well there.

    • Howdy all,   I had my rb25det S2 rebuilt and finally started it today but have run into a few issues  Engine sounds like a a diesel easiest way to summarise like small ticking, gets louder when revs are slightly adjusted  The engine builder repainted the engine cover leaving no where for me to go off with lining up the CAS so have it as central as possible so not sure it that could be affecting it?, changed the gearbox fluid too but won’t seem to go into gear when running, and only 1 to 4 when off having a hard time finding 5th and reverse anyone got any ideas or a base for me to start off? much appreciated
