Hey all,

About to go to Japan for 3 weeks on the 31st of August.

I am wanting to buy some parts for the M35 but can not decide what I should buy or even look at!

I am wanting to go to Freeway Dolphins shop in Tokyo but unsure of where else I should go.

Any ideas?

Oh, if I wanted to buy some larger items (for example : freeway dolphin f+r stabilisers) how would I go bringing them back with me? Or can I ship them some how?

Might be worth talking to Aaron at Import Monster, perhaps you can drop the new rims to their japanese warehouse and get them to freight them with their frequent shipments.

Would probably work out cheaper than just freighting them yourself.

Nismo ECU if you can find one....you will be happy :(

you could also try going here http://www.upgarage.com/shop/upgarage.html

Thanks mate, will keep an eye out for an Up Garage!

How much do you think a nismo ECU would set me back? I still have not decided what to do with ECU stuff.

Thanks mate, sounds like a good idea! Who said anything about rims though? :(

I think this will be an expensive trip...

Sorry :( I scanned your message quickly and thought you said "some larger rims" lol

Ox Motor sports have lots of M35 stuff especially tower & strut bars (front & rear) not sure where they are located but worth checking out.

Mines will have plenty of go fast bits especially that ECU for the VQ25DET . . :blink: If you rocked up with Cash I am sure they will give you one. . just ask for a 98 RON tuned one. .

Now, Mines ECU is a different story, I might go have a looksy! Seems they are on the outskirts of Tokyo so I hope to go there.

It seems OXMS however are going to be too far to travel to. Thats the corporate office and factory it seems though so they may send stuff out to shops.

Cheers mate

Thank you VERY much for that! I will enjoy Jp I think <3

Hey guys, just been doing some reading on the Mine's website, so pretty much all I need to do is bring my standard ECU with me and they will give me a Mine's VXRom? All I need to do is ask them to tune it to 98 Ron?

:D

That and a list of your mods. . I have tried to contact them 14 times. . with no response. . Hopefully they can tune to 98 RON, as said previously. . .a contact will be great. . there is plenty of people that will invest in one me thinks

THANK YOU ASWELL.. now i know what im going to custom fab at work lol

  • 2 weeks later...
If you can buy a mines or nismo ecu I will be up for that.

Hey guys,

Just an update, no longer getting the Mines ECU this time around. I decided that since I have more mods to come it would be a waste doing it now and then having to get it retuned later on as well.

I have instead invested in a Blitz FMIC kit for the M35, a Blitz panel filter and a plenum spacer kit through Andy on here.

I am now trying to locate the axis+arx? powerduct to finish off my current intake mods. Would anyone possibly know where I could source one or what the part number is?

Cheers

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
