Buying An M35 T Rs

[Sunkist]

just get the Axis front and rear bar!....lol....bling bling

lol how bout i get the car running off its own engine? atleast... lol

[iamhe77]

well im glad you saw this first.

if your planning on doing a Body kit.. dont get an ARX lol..

i want to change my front bar now but its a bitch with the wheel arches....

I still love my POS though..

LOL, stop complaining, I have already told you what you can do, bud.

Axis front bar and colourcode as Craig and Dale said... BUT you will need a custom grill (or the Axis grill and bonnet ornament).

Then just cut the "bling" parts out of the Axis front bar and mesh behind the new openings. Lots of air for coolers etc and no bling.

OR you could always just buy a Nismo front bar (I know you love 'em) and get a GOOD body shop to add some fibreglass to the sides so it lines up with your arches.

Mate just a head's up.....both the dealer's you were looking are a bit how's it going. I have seen both those yards stock about three time's and I personally would give them a miss. In saying that get the inspections done by the NRMA or similar ......whatever you do don't rush the purchase even if they start pressuring you saying there are other people interested(there are plenty of other good ones out there!....not saying that the car you are looking at is no good....just saying that if there was a problem they would more than likely not tell you. On the other hand I have heard that Nagoya does look after warranty claim's during that period!

It's worth paying a little more for a good car just quietly.....I learnt the hard way!

I am gong to Nagoya tomorrow and miss a day from work just to check again then northshore - hopefully this time I am on the ball

[numleg]

I haven't heard anything good or bad about Northshore or Nagoya.

I got my car from Japlink motors, Very happy with the car and after sales service, I had one minor problem (O2 sensor died) replaced two days later and was given a car to drive for the day while they worked on the car.

I got northshore. Same thing o2 died and thy replaced. Also called up for info a few times and got help with stuff while I was learning. They got some nice cars. Also got some ce28's for free from northshore

Well I made my enquiries and it ends up the silver Sa based RS is the only M35 in SA and sold.

So now i have to either talk to Chef about importing one or go interstate.

If I can find a decent one interstate, and get it inspected, I will go down that route simply because its faster. If not Ill have to import one. Not thrilled about a 2+ month wait but I guess itll be worth it.

[pbk1776]

Finally found one Eill pick it up in a week or two

[whitestag]

Where u end outgettjg from?

[pbk1776]

Welcome to the ARX Family!

lol now thinking what wheels will suite an ARX

Unfortunately if she's had the KM's doctored in some way it's usually done before it hits the auction house and any log books it might have had mysteriously go missing. In this situation the papers will only show the false KM's from the auction.

One of the hardest things to do when you're a car nut is to buy with your head and not your heart.

This car may not be the righ one but there will be plenty more, don't rush it and you will enjoy the car for years to come.

My 2c anyway,

Jas

Most of the time its done here in Australia not overseas.

stock is 18 i wouldnt go any lower..

get something that will fit the brembo's or gtr brakes in there. trust me you'll want to get the brakes done.

[pbk1776]

need $$$ for all of the upgrades will see if I can afford lol

[Angus Smart]

i got 18's on mine, i think i would rather have something along the lines of 19-20 to fill the front guards. as the 18's look a little silly still. the rears are ok with 18. but you will obviously need the same size all round..

[pbk1776]

yeh i was thinking of 18 to 19 - dont want to go 20
