I've had a bit of a search but as usual i'm impatient.

Long story short, the Mrs's dad wants a new car, he's thinking of a c200 mer station wagon, i'm trying to convince him to go a stag (mercs are nice and all, but you pay alot for a name).

Problem is it needs to meet atleast a certain mark on the luxury specs.

I noticed on the 350 cruise last friday that someones ( i think it was yours Andy) had the same leather/suede seats as my 350gt premium has in it. I cant seem to find any pics of any other stags with this tho so i dont know if its a factory option.

Can anyone advise? Ideally i want to suggest an M35 with a 25det 4wd and all luxury bells and whistles. Auto is preferred i think.

I can answer you. If you are after swede seats, the only model is the Axis (or Axis S). They were released in 2004 to 2006, while 2007 it was discontinued.

Unfortunately, you cannot import a VQ25DET after 2003. So your only engine option is the VQ35DE.

Here's what the seats look like.

bah i'm getting myself ass end up again i tihnk...

ok so let me get this straight, the seats above are from the 04 to 06 axis/axis s? but the vq25det importing stopped at 03??

according to the m35 info sticky theres no compliancing for the vq35's yet is that still right??

The sticky needs to be updated as you can import/comply and register VQ35's now. Just check my sig, that's where you can buy them from. :)

With the seats, apparently, the 04 models had these in the Axis, then in 05 to 06, they had these seats in the Axis S, while the Axis model had the full tan premium leather seats, which imo looks (and I bet it feels) darn nicer.

Hi Simon

The 2 you saw on Friday were both ARX's and they have a tan Nisleather trim. (I think that is code for slightly recycled leather).

The PM35 is a great option the motor is very similar to the V35 you know already and the interior is a little more contemporary.

Cheers

Andy

nice... like the black arx with the tan... might show him that one.

Red350 RX4 is nice too... oh and the bathurst... but only if you throw it in as a freebie :)

Heh Andy my mind must be playing tricks on me. i could have sworn you had v35 premium seats in yours. oh well... no biggylooks like the current offerings are pretty nice.

    • What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.
    • I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.      
    • So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about
    • This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but.. 
    • Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
