Hi Everyone

I am in the market of stagea

I want to know if an M35 comes with the following

1. NISMO Option? like momo steering wheel, body kit, wheels and etc?

2. NISMO OPtions does come with DVD/Sat Nav - yes or no?

3. If there a NISMO Option - what does the car have? or what I should expect?

I found a car from an importer yard but im not 100% trusting all things he

said.

Typed a lengtly reply and internet played up and it didn't save. Km's are fudged, I'm pretty sure of this, car is not as neat as you would expect for a 2003 with only 42,000 km's on the clock. Even t

NISMO options include

Body kit

Steering wheel

Instrument cluster (speedo etc)

Gauge cluster (Boost, torque, battery - all white)

Suspension (S-Tunes)

Dump pipe

Cat-back exhaust

ECU

Wheels (LMgt4 for 2001-2004 and LMX5 for 2005+)

Air filter

I know I am missing more, but stuffed if I can remember

That one on Carsales is NOT a "Nismo" M35.

It has a Nismo kit, steering wheel and wheels (maybe suspension), but the M35 DID come as a complete optioned car from Nismo if you wanted, but it wasn't plated any differently.

they're all factory optional extra by NISMO.

Theres a pdf of the available options floating around here somewhere.. Not sure if it was Nismo Specific though.

Do you have the link for the carsales one?

Great for the info mate thanks for that - so it is not a legit nismo

anymore concrete details about the one from Carsales? cause it was priced a lil bit high

Priced high 'cause it looks nice.

A few guys here that own M35's and used to own M35's have been out to look at it and all said that it looks quite rough.

I'd like to see it, but be stuffed flying up to Sydney to do so.

Maybe ask zei20l and Bise-bee what they thought of it.

EDIT: Oh yeah, that isn't an M35 Nismo exhaust. Looks more Kakimoto or Blitz to me.

Aaron, here is your link

That price isn't too bad for all those extra's is it? If the K's are genuine then I personally would pay that for it. Iron Chef has one with a claimed 24xxxk's on it for about $19K which might be worth a look. Kristian is very honest and if I was buy one again I would definitely buy from him.

his name is bis-e-bee

its also not a real nismo stagea. the badging and stickers are all in the wrong spot. the kit MIGHT be genuine

Bit melodramatic don't you think?

I am sure that the kit is genuine Nismo, as is the Nismo option steering wheel.... and the wheels and maybe the suspension (at a guess).

I wonder what ECU it has....

i like dramatising things :)

the ONLY thing id be worried about is the engine condition, and the apparent mileage.

who knows, might turn out to be a great buy! but id need to see it for myself to know for sure

I've seen it myself - from my not very good experience in importing the milage does not match the condition of the car

it easy to spot from the carpet alone - I know i want to buy it I am doing this so I can negotiate witht he yard so I won;t get

rip off.

I am going back to bring a mechanic with me to check the engine out and I am not racist but im not trusting the owner

      I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp

      Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆

      A little PU bush story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
