hey guys, i just need to clear a few things about the m35s....

i spoke to my uncle who has contact in japan, he imports cars. and is constantly on the phone with his friends there. anyway he was chasing up the r34 dash mounted screen for a gtt and found one like a boss... and then boom its on its way here., from what ive told via some mates its a rare as part!

anyhow i remember everyone wanting aftermarket ecus for m35s? now i asked my uncle about this. he said if i can give him a contact number/address/email of a the exact shop/garage where they would be located, he can definatley bring em in. its just as easy as the right details. and then its 1 phonecall away.

im not sure if they are everywhere in australia yet these nismo/other brand ecus yet, as its been awhile since i remember reading about it.

2ndly. I was talking to a friends friend about my stag, and he asked if i made it rwd yet.... i replied saying wtf is the point. i have a track car already this is just a daily. and that i didnt know how...

he then proceeded to tell me that you just gotta pull a fuse... and i told himhe was mistaking my car for the older stageas... and his like nah man. its that one... anyway.... i told him i didnt think it could be done....

CAN someone please clear this up for me???

lol he then asked if i was ever going to sell it how much i was asking. i told him my price. and he was like wtf? your kidding way to expensive...

he then whispered to his mate that they are only worth $11,500 landed and on the road.... lol what an idiot. that clarified he was confused with the older stags and the m35...

If your uncle can find me a set of complete fog lights (lights and cover trims or the black blanking plates) for the aero front bar, I'd be very interested. Like very, very interested!

The ecu deal will definitely garner some interest too!

I think Jetwreck found if you disconnect an ABS sensor; instant RWD...

No, takes more than pulling a fuse to make it RWD. C34 and PM35 (series 2) you can pull a fuse to make it RWD, but not VQ25det Stagea's.

Yeah, your mate is thinking of C34's... although you can get an M35 brought in pretty cheap.

He certainly did, but it was how he found that out! :rofl2:

It would be a PNM35 thats the AWD model - and able to go RWD with the fuse

PM35's are all RWD- no "N" in the model code

knit picking I know, but Its a mistake that has been made heaps of times now in various posts by various people (not just you :thumbsup:)

Now I look like a OCD f**k.>_<

I remember, it was supposed to be tongue in cheek, but I'm posting from my phone, so no emoticons...

Something about a washer bottle...

If you can get a Nismo or Impul that would be great. But sounds like so far G-Zone are the best bet and they prefer to reflash/swap over, and do slightly custom upgrades.

LOL, treated like a noob!

Yes Alex, I know that the N means AWD... it was more just the model designation to separate the series 1 M35 from the series 2 M35 as opposed to a mistake.

As I was talking AWD anyway, I just figured that would suffice for Ced to get it clear to his mate :)

      George's R33 GTST build

      I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps

      Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks

      small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛

      Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
