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 u

stephen looked at it, i havent, and wont bother after his comments to me about it. its too cheap for a 2003 model with that mileage and the mods/additions on it. be wary of it if you do go to look at

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

parramatta road - allimports - will be in the morning

Parramatta Rd, Burwood has a few other M35's other than the dodgy Nismo job. All People Mover (APM), Burwood Imports or something similiar to that and I think Edward lee's has a few AR-X's.

All people Mover have a nice silver one but the leather interior turned me off as I want the cloth sports seats.

Good luck dude!

Nice car, good luck with the sale. I looked at it but the aftermarket CD player and the leather interior are not on my list of requirements :)

no problem at all mate but if you change your mind let me know, and thank you. smile.gif

Update. Went to all import found couple and the one we wanted

Did you look next door at Japlink? I was there at around 11:30 talking with Adam, the bloke who sold my car. They have 2 on the lot and another just sold. Look nice. They have sold one that is still in Japan to be shipped soon. AllImports had only 1 I could see, an ARX I think, a little like AndyB's on here. Definitely don't try that place with an E in the name. I looked at a Legnum 2 years ago. They flogged the guts out of it from a cold start.

Has anyone looked at this? I'm starting my search now, and am actually in SA (just a bit of a drive to this one). Spoke to Chef, but decided if I can pick up something decent locally, I'll do it. If I can't find anything after a couple of weeks I'll import one.

I'm specifically after one with twin sunroofs and interior can't be beige. Other than that, Bose and leather would be nice, but not essential. I'm prepared to travel if necessary, and I've seen a couple of decent, standard ones on Car Sales.

you cant get bose in RX and ARX models (with the integrated stereo) and they only have beige (RX) and tan (ARX) leather seats. ARX MIGHT be available in full black interoir, but AFAIK only RS (AXIS?) came in all black.

RS, base, but most options available. comes with 3 gauges not available in any other model (maybe some AXIS?)

RX, 6 stacker, electric seats, rear seating aircon vents. no Hicas option, therefore no LSD.

ARX, fully optioned, same as RX but with; leather, TV/satnav, hicas, LSD, extra 40mm heigh, ugly ass side moulds :P

AXIS, lowered suspension, body coloured side moulds. most options available.

thats the simple list. there are other stuff im sure ive missed.

thats only for NM35. PM35 have a slightly different line up. like no boost :P

to be honest the best leather is the AXIS, the other leather options are not real leather. its leatherette or something synthetic.

only get the ARX if you need the height, AXIS is more expensive, but IMO a 'sports wagon' as its optioined with lower suspension and really nice wheels.

      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.
