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

I don't know what yard that's from but I bet you my left nut the km's are not genuine. And that catback looks like a Kaki to me. This is how a Nismo one should look.

lol... Isn't that off a PM35 Axis S, Eugene?

Second generation Nismo exhaust for series 1 M35's was similar to the pic above and the first generation Nismo exhaust had twin square pipes out of the muffler

1st gen Nismo (3" pipe - basically the same design as Fujitsubo Legalis) was available from 2001-late 2002.

2nd gen Nismo (~2.5" pipe) was available from late 2002 and should still be able to be purchased new. It had the oval tip. Ask Iain for a pic of it as one came off Stephens wrecked M35.

Either could be purchased with or without the sound deadening valve

The one off Stephens is the same as mine, I think? In which case its a "Nissan Sports Muffler", not "Nismo".. unless they're actually one in the same unsure.gif

No, I don't think they are. Nismo definitely changed the rear muffler for the second gen NM35 muffler to one with the oval tip and dropped the pipe size to under 3"... but perhaps the "Nissan Sports Muffler" could be a factory fitted option whereas the Nismo is a dealer option?

Possibly. Definitely an easy way to determine if tis the same or not, due to the markings on my exhaust, part number included

Indeed (I saw one of these go through Yahoo late last year - for the first time lol).

Difficult to confuse the two if you are looking at 'em, Nismo exhausts have "Nismo" and "Weldina" on them.

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 :)

Mine is exactly as per pic from Duncan, it's labelled as a Nissan Sports Muffler and has Calsonic stamped on the underneath of it. I believe it is a Nismo option but was not labelled as such.

      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.
