Stupid question. Isn't it drivable just by disconnecting it ? Just to make it home and not have to call a truck

sometimes it may enter limp mode, but for my experience, my car kept stall.

yeah I noticed the fault counter at home and yeah I know that goes into fault mode when taken out of the connector.

towing is free. the insurance company will pay

I was able to drive mine with a blown AFM on all three occasions it happened to me, one trip I was about 100km from home and it got there. I don't know why some cars would be able to be driven whilst some others aren't. Just another M35 mystery.

HDI intercooler ready to be fitte, front lower arm bushes to be pressed in, waiting for m35rv1 turbo and 14psi actuator, new rocker cover gaskets and Lfr7aix spark plugs, b&m trans cooler fitted, banjo restrictors drilled out. Still waiting for mishimoto coolant hoses, nismo thermostat and am performance dump.

What can you read with that unit? And does it work?

Havnt started the car yet as i havnt fitted turbo, but with ignition on i can cycle through rpm, throttle %, boost, water temp, oil temp, oil pressure, injector duty cycle and vehicle speed

Finally found the last pieces to my M35 Stagea 'E' trim code swap. Next will be the head lining in tan.

Not hassling you for it, and I know colours are a subjective thing, but why do you want to swap to beige? My one regret with my Stag is the interior colour, especially since I have kids. It's depressing watching the seats change from sparkling clean to dirty over time, at least the dark interiors hide it.

The lower section of my car is dark (charcoal & black except seats), the top 1/2 is beige/tqn (whatever you want to call it) as it was originally light grey (so this colour is actually darker than what i had). And as i got the burnt orange 350z seats for a steal ($250 - good luck finding a set at this price) i actually dont mind the colour so trying to match to them. edf0e43b45f642ec6ab5053d8cd8f2a6.jpg

As you can see the lower is darker and for a car that wits in the garage 90% of the time doesnt get kiddy grime.

As with all cars they are for individuals and your post is appreciated. Beige interior os so much better than the light grey thats for sure. Oh and i am 1 of 2 m35s (that i am aware of ) who have the rear roof panel not molested by 3 child restraints.

Ah, forgot you had the Z seats, makes more sense now. The 2-tone effect will actually look pretty cool I reckon, almost custom.

...

Oh lawd, I just had flashbacks to all-white vinyl interiors from the late '90s/early '00s. I wish I hadn't just eaten dinner...

Yeah... sucks they wernt black but the orange is just as nice. Kept all the lower 1/2 black and soon to be completed with black carpet. I was just testing the black headlining but going with a tan colour (cant find a m35 headliner in tan as they all have sunroofs) and i dont have the sunroofs..... yet ;)

Also i have noticed i have a different steering wheel then everone else. Any clue as to what its off?

It's not just the steering wheel, your whole car is pointing the wrong way!

Steering wheel is from a Y50 Fuga, something a bit different, nice one!

Also have a look at the Infinity M35, you might be able to get the cruise switches from the USA.

I'd love a black head lining. That would look great.

You doing it yourself Josh ?

Pretty difficult upholstery job there.

I'd keep it to only 2 colours .

    • Hey all, my 2004 Nissan Skyline 350GT overheated the other day with coolant boiling and leaking out of the coolant reservoir when I was parking. So today, I started it up again just to see if it was a thermostat/head gasket issue. After about 20 mins of running, temps were normal again, no coolant was leaking out and the upper reservoir hose was warm but my engine suddenly cut off. I checked the oil dipstick and cap when it was running and there was no white foamy residue and the exhaust did not have white smoke. I tried starting up the car again but it would only crank, similar to when I had a camshaft sensor issue just that now there’s no check engine light on the dash. Any ideas? Unfortunately I don’t have an OBD2 that can read the Nissan's programme.
    • Bump on this to not make another post, had a ‘head drain’ leak on me and have the engine out as we speak. Planning on just putting a new freeze plug back in , plug the tapped holes and just be done with that headache.    Now I still want to relieve pressure to allow oil to pass down the blocks returns easier. I’ve seen catch cans with multiple vents help folks with this issue on this forum.  I’m wanting to make my own. I have some pictures here of my setup if anyone can help how I should plumb and design the catch can I would deeply appreciate it !   rb25 Oil upgrades: 1.0mm restrictor n1 pump/billet gears extended crank collar  extended sump with trap doors/w welded fitting    
    • The Frenchy's kit is the way to go forward. A modern compressor that weighs about 1/2 as much, is at least twice as efficient, and will do a good job on R134a. And of course the kit has everything else you need to connect it up and have it work properly.
    • Hey all , I am in the process of having the AC system in my r32 GTST converted from r12 to r134a and I’m being told my compressor has gone bad and I will need a new one. I was wondering if anybody has any suggestions for what is the best route to go aside from dropping $1500 on a new oem one? I did see that Frenchy’s performance garage offers a kit to mount a Toyota compressor, has anybody actually used this kit on their car? Or is there anywhere I could purchase just a clutch? Any help is appreciated.
    • Well, your RB20 ECU loom won't have wires for the boost solenoid, that boost sensor, and possibly one or two other things. There could be differences in seemingly random things like the charcoal canister purge solenoid, because the 25DET has to handle boost in the vacuum system and the 20DE does not. I don't know - I haven't looked. It is very likely that all the most important things are same-same, being the main sensors like AFM, CAS, etc, and the injectors and ignition. Not that you'll need the AFM for the Haltech anyway. I would suggest that you would seriously want to sit down with the pinouts for both ECUs and just go through them and highlight green what is the same, orange what is different/missing, and make a plan from there. It's not going to be difficult. It will either be the same or need to be fixed.
