oh yeah another thing the DUAL button on it doesnt work... i press it and it does nothing, whats it ment to do exactly...

[iamhe77]

DUAL is for dual climate control.

Lets you have different temp control for passenger and driver side.

NM35 RS and RX models do not have this feature.

^ that is the first (only?) feature that I've heard of that my 'fully optioned' povery pack doesn't come with - & that I can see could be worthwhile. I didn't know what I was missing & now I kind of wish I didn't read your post Cam, lol.

dam i was hoping it was jus a fuse then it would work lol...

now the next thing... everytime i turn right like around a round about, there is a loud grind/scraping noise from the passenger front wheel/wheel well area... i first thought it was hanging plastic but i have fixed that but it still does it... any ideas?

[scotty nm35]

Mine did this when I upgraded the disks to 32 GTR, are they stock?

Or wheel bearing...

[ransom91]

im pretty sure the disks are stock but not to sure.....

btw has anyone used this site before:

http://www.amayama.com/

has most parts for the stagea.

[scotty nm35]

So does Nissan...

[ransom91]

yeah true but i rang them bout a rocker cover gasket and im looking at 30bucks where as this site is saying 7bucks for it but havent found out on postage yet...

[scotty nm35]

Nissan can have it here in 2 days. Most of the parts are reasonably priced from what I have found, as long as you have a good stealership.

I paid $25.28 so ask them to match it. Quite cheap for what it is. Have fun fitting it.

[ransom91]

yeah well my work does work for a nissan joint so i may be able to get it at trade cost... but seeing the price on that site first..

[bigkevracer]

Sure, but it's not $7. It's $7 + shipping + two weeks stuffing around while you wait.

Nissan is $25.28, might wait 1-2 days normally if you have to wait at all.

[ransom91]

well you was right for that rocker cover gasket.. it was 7$ then 33$ for postage... i wasnt fussed with the wait because even if i got it from nissan it would take me more then a month to get off my ass and fit it... lol

and has anyone got the part number for the passenger side CV joint? and wheel bearing?

[ransom91]

oh and which parts fit the stagea from other nissans, like the g35 and m35 infiniti, or are they completely different.

[Sydsyd]

depending on which parts u talking about...brakes shares with xtrail, v35 or 350z touring (non brembo), headlight bulbs & a few interior parts (mainly dash area) same as v35...in regards of m35 infinity, i think it's a completely different car, but the other more experienced guys would know better than me

[iamhe77]

Yep, Infinity M35 is the 3.5L version of the Y50 Fuga (Infinity M56 is the Fuga with a 5.6L V8 in there )

Nothing like the Nissan M35 which we love so much

[ransom91]

ahhk yeah now im starting to understand it.. all a little confusing at first with all the M's, G's and V's lol

and what about CV joints and Wheel bearings? they same as any other nissans?

[bigkevracer]

Ring Nissan - my local seems to have M35 Stagea in their system.

Just Jap have the wheel bearings listed. As for CV joints not sure, most people on here just leave it up to the CV place. Did you do a search?

[ransom91]

yeahh i have rang nissan and they said 230 for inner CV's then the outers are different and are 330 for one and 530 for the other he didnt say which is which..

just hoping for a cheaper price as most do..
