Hi folks, what options exist for PNM35 or what models share the same dimensions and fitment for the front top of tower strut brace.

I have seen a few options pop up through Google, the Ultra Racing Australia for one. I have seen some eBay ones that claim they fit C34 and M35 but can't find details if to work out if its true.

Also found Taiko / TEMA4x4 claim the one type fits:

- Nissan Stagea (2-nd gen; M35) 2001 - 2007,
- Nissan Skyline (V35, HV35, NV35, V35, PV35) 2001 - 2007
- Infiniti G35, G35X (3-rd gen; V35) 2002 - 2006

But not sure how true that is.

Anyone fitted one or know of someone using one and can confirm what does fit?

instead of spending money on a meagre benefit, why not spend money on things more useful? Like suspension joint bushes, dampers (the thing the goes inside your springs), oil + filters etc.

tl;dr tower braces make way less difference compared to your tyres.

Anything for a 2003-2005 G35 will fit an M35.
Just be mindful about clearance if you're running a plenum spacer or runner spacer.

Yeh not doing anything with spacers at all, ty for the info

Yeh a meagre benefit, what strut tower brace are you using? Eventually all the suspension and tyres are done and you get to ... meagre benefits. Narrow end of the wedge, all that stuff.

But you can stand next to your strut brace with the bonnet up in the Bunnings car park and people can see it. Can't see dampers.

Bunnings car park it is! if you buy the kind of dampers with the adjustable top on the strut you can see it, red, purple? So many options.

no way in the world does the same strut brace fit both, they are totally different width, PCD, angle for the strut tops. also the M35 would need to be way higher to come up and over

    • If you are genuinely considering trying to get this engineered, I would strongly advise finding the engineer that is happy to sign that off first before you put the hole in your car.  I've seen cars get defected for this and not be able to be put back on the road as no engineer they spoke to was happy to sign if off.  
    • Apologies, while id like to put the MAF as close to the TB and relocate the recirc, this may be too much work. Will most likely end up just putting it on the original AFM spot ( onto/next to the airbox ).  Was going through nistune, found a pretty nifty doc on this. Nistune MAF Notes. Also, i was looking through the bay, and there seems to be a tube/line connected from the A/C to the intercooler piping ( Between the smic and the recirc), what does this do as the crossover fmic piping doesnt have any connection? plumbing? not sure what you call it but the nipple thing ahah.  Also, been reading up more about crossover fmic in regards to the legality of having the hole drilled for the piping, this would most likely need to be engineered right?
    • My advice is if you need a big build done do it in Japan. The yen rate is so favorable and there are shops that can be genuinely trusted and not micromanaged/carefully monitored every step of the way. Garage Yoshida is obviously my preferred option but they're so busy these days and all interaction with new customers has to be mediated through BBL/Toprank now. 
    • I haven't....but a poorly made one would terrify me. Surely a good second hand one is the go, as they don't work hard and no-one wants to keep one after they are finished with it A big consideration would be the weight of the shell you are putting on it....is it a fully dressed chassis or just the body
