Hello all, 

I’ve recently bought my first RB car, a C35 Laurel Club S 25t (not a Skyline I know, but it’s basically an R34 sedan imo). Bought the car around a month ago and have never been happier!

The car came with D-Max coilovers and 350z anniversary wheels. I’ve installed a few mods like a dual pipe exhaust, kouki taillights, and clear turn signals.63E3D6C7-7B2C-4130-B309-6F9CE977767D.thumb.jpeg.a4a9e3b8ad56df58a1599a5122e09a7f.jpeg10516527-6DE5-4ADC-A105-1B07F18B00DB.thumb.jpeg.e845065d2a8f391e32aec2ac04b193af.jpeg80A9A990-2322-4429-8461-282EC00FD936.thumb.jpeg.10d3d5e631b46112501c94a7044573c3.jpeg

Lovely car. Exactly what I wanted one badly for years, but they're so rare down here in Aus. Had to settle for Skylines instead :(

Some days I regret not pulling the trigger to import one.

Thanks! The C35 has been my dream car for a long time since they’re uncommon and relatively unknown by most people even in Japan! Which also makes it hard finding parts which sucks but I will get used to

When I was selling my Cefiro this was hot on the list alongside the Mark II. Still regret not buying it. It’s essentially a R34 sedan with luxury styling. Love it.

Great buy and will be looking forward to following what you do with it so I can live vicariously through your adventures. Welcome!

PS: If you’re gonna modify the aero, please don’t put a Uras kit on it… see if you can hunt down the elusive Impul kit for it.

I’d love to own a Cefiro or a Mark II someday! A buddy of mine in high school had a Jzx100 and it was a very nice car; the guy who bought it from him turned it into a drift beater which was kinda sad but expected lol

As for my C35, I will post any new adventures I have with it on here!

And I will not get the Uras kit, it looks a little too 90’s vip for my tastes. I wanted an Impul kit for my car and found one recently on Yahoo Auctions Japan, but it costs nearly $8k USD (almost $11k AUD) which I’d rather use to buy other parts for my car! I’ve been looking at the Kazama Auto kit for my car, and might go that route down the road but we’ll see

      Foreign debris, physical shock, boost leak, could be anything honestly. The danger in taking all the timing out of a tune/hitting the R&R corner is that even if the engine doesn't detonate your turbo is taking a lot of abuse from high EGT. Also, even if nothing goes wrong it is a journal bearing that is spinning at 100k RPM on boost. Eventually it goes through enough cold start/pressure cycles to wear it out.

      Possible option to replace central computer 370 V36

      By Vee37 · Posted

      I kinda accidentally saw this, and was interested, but It actually seems to replaces the whole center computer, using the existing screen and buttons. AND it may only be for a G37 and not compatible with a Japanese 370. So its not for me, but someone else may be interested to look into it. Its about $680USD. If I am understanding it right, it basically replaces/installs and android pc that integrates with the existing screen. But I could be wrong. https://gromaudio.com/vline/ The video I first saw was the following, with very little and unclear details.     Even if your not interested in the system, the video on their site was pretty comforting in showing how simple the whole centre comes out

      Import insurance in 2025

      By CRSKmD · Posted

      I’m with Shannon’s for all 5 of our cars. Agreed values seem fair, premium price is okay. ($210 ish a month, all comprehensive).  Have claimed once with them for a not at fault claim with another car where my car had no damage. Was one call after the incident and an email after. Deemed not at fault so premium didn’t go up either.    I have called up and spoken with people who are not familiar with certain cars and didn’t agree with me on value or let their personal vehicle preferences effect the call. But called back later and got someone else who was more agreeable.
