Hey everyone - a big 'G'day' from another new Brissie member!

These are my current babies - a 2005 V35 & a 2012 370Z. I've also got a turbo Kawasaki street/drag bike hidden away at home, for those extra sunny days!

Cheers, see you all around!

Did she come with the car? haha i had seen that car for sale with those pictures lol :D

Haha! Yeah, I get that a lot!

The Vee has indeed been for sale for a while, but I didn't feel comfortable bringing that up until I've been on here awhile...

I had the pics taken on the day I did a magazine photo shoot for the bike. I figured while we were there, we might as well get some nice shots with the car to help sell it. Seriously, if I'd have known the hassle it would cause over the next 6 months I wouldn't have bothered!

First off, Car Sales refused to accept the images stating that they are 'inappropriate for public consumption', then I got a string of mouth-breathers calling me up at all hours whilst they wank off down the phone. I mean, seriously WTF!?!?

As soon as I get a chance I'll see about uploading some of the bike shots from that day. They are much better (& I don't expect it will lead to any of you guys calling me for a late night biscuit beating session...!).

    • The r34 gearbox is like $3400/3700 landed from Japan sometime last year.   Contact jessestreeter.com for info and quotes. From memory the navara gearbox needs input shaft machined down as I looked into a while back and there's a thread somewhere here from 2018-2021 about it. Depends on what your doing with the car maybe worth the dollars to go cd009 or a 8hp50/70.
    • VCAM doesn't really increase peak power, it just widens the powerband. So if you were giving up power with adjustable cam gears to get better low-end response yes in theory it "increases power" but otherwise not really. Stroker kit might put you in a more efficient region of the compressor map which will get you more power but at say 7000 rpm I'm not sure that much will change. The original HKS GT2530, -5s, and GTX2860R gen 2 are all roughly the same kind of turbo. If you want 600 horsepower those are the turbos you need. So 500 whp. Just expect to spend some quality time trying to figure out intake/exhaust piping. The "twin turbo" pipe is an obvious place to start. Make sure the actuator preload and all of that fun boring stuff is set up correctly. Throw a VCAM step 2 at it if you want good response, 2.8L stroker too. If you're not actually wedded to 500 whp all the time you can barely get there with -7s or Nismo R3 turbos, you just have to run E85 or race gas and run them hard:
    • It's used in the GT-R, GTST/GTT, and Z32 VG30 NA + TT versions. Nissan still makes them new, they're not cheap but they're not expensive either. Personally I would just get something direct-fit and be done with it but I'm not that handy at fabrication.
    • FS5R30A the nav box isn’t it? I did think about those. Any issues? I wondered if the bell housing off an rb30 patrol would work as they are the same gearbox but with a transfer I believe.
