Looks nice,

Impul body kit and an aftermarket FMIC. (maybe a Impul ECU in there also)

some sort of aftermarket suspension. Looks like the the CV boot seals are a starting to come off.

The M35 is a much more refined car than the C34 and lots more torque. A bit more of a cruiser.

You should enjoy.

There is lots of information on this forum about trouble shooting problems.

VIN number printed on your windscreen (from the first photo), when entered into FAST tells us your car was manufactured June 2002, Exterior Colour code: KYO and interior is G (grey). Motor is VQ25DET, 4WD, 5 speed auto, Model type is 250TRSFV

Model: TLGNRSNM35UDA-A--

I recently upgraded from a '97 n/a Stagea 25X to a 2006 RX250 FOUR n/a and haven't been disappointed in any way. It's a far more modern and refined car. Quite a bit higher driving position, better economy and handling. A very worthy successor to the old model, although looks don't appeal to everyone. I always thought the old Stagea was one of the best looking wagons on the road.

With nice slim profile tyres, 20's may be ok but I would look for someone with 20's and see what they have to say about it.

Lots of M35's getting around with 19's but that's not to say 20's wouldn't be possible. I know the best offset is +38.

Remember if you have an all wheel drive (atessa) vehicle, keep the wheels and tyres the same all round (or atleast ensure your rolling diameter is as close as possible) or the atessa will have something to say about it.

      Warning this hidden hose almost destroyed my RB25DET

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Yep, replacing all those hoses is kind of just bog standard if you're ever back there. Only hose on the back of the engine I have yet to replace is a vacuum hose for the wastegate. I'll probably do it eventually but it's in such an annoying spot.

      4th gear sychro worn

      By Sleepergm · Posted

      I was actually just planning on replacing the fourth gear parts in the gear box that I broke … like the synchro hub or cone. And any other parts I need once I open up the transmission. That a bad idea? The rest of the gears feel tight. these parts shouldn’t be too much … just the labour here won’t be cheap. Just replacing these in HK would be around 2k aud including labour.    how much is a new r33 or r32 transmission?    thanks for the good info as usual

      I chose a bad time to buy, at the time there was no gtst's for sale in NSW and my options were qld, vic, or sa and not the greatest examples or too far out of my budget. Ended up picking this one from adelaide sight unseen and got a bit stitched up as you could expect but i dont fully regret it, its just a shame people cant be more transparent in this day and age.

      IMO just buy a whole R33 transmission and swap the whole thing. Use a palm nailer/air hammer with a roll pin punch to drive the shifter rod end roll pins out. The rod end is discontinued so don't break it. Use gasket dressing on the OEM paper gasket instead of RTV. I personally would not pry on the shifter cover tabs, I broke one trying that instead of just smacking the side with a dead blow rubber mallet to shock it loose from the RTV the last mechanic applied. If you can't get the flanges totally clean and free of any residual RTV and/or you might have a gap that is bigger than it should due to flange damage use RTV on that surface instead of the OEM specced anaerobic sealer. Anaerobic sealer is most likely the right sealant for the job, it's just too easy to mess it up with too large a gap or bad surface prep/roughness seemingly. If you do rebuild what you have it's for a whole gearset that can take high torque. Don't bother with OEM at that point.

      Little hose. Big hose. They're all waiting to kill the engine.
