Hey guys,

I was cruising through Bondi Junction this morning and a silver G35 Skyline Coupe went the other way - no license plates but just a trade palte on the back..

I saw in HPI they were coming out to Aus, but I havent seen anything official from Nissan yet.

Anyone know when they're due for sale? It was DAMN nice.

We're in the process of importing a couple for clients.

Rather than point out specific examples which are cheap, I've put together a sample of 220 random V35's of various specs and configurations, how much they sold at auction for, and how much they will cost landed.

Compliance cost is around $5500 currently, its a little high, but it is because only one workshop is able comply them at the moment. We expect it to drop once the competition picks up in the coming month.

Should give you a good idea of how much to expect to pay for what. These are all cars that are added to our daily auction examples, which you can subscribe to at http://www.j-spec.com.au/list and then enter your email addy at the bottom of the page.

I couldnt care if it went like a ferrari! it looks like shit. A new magna has more appeal than this heap. I wouldnt swap my 33 for this. Not turbo either is it?

Funny you should mention this. I parked my 35 next to a new Magna in the petrol station this morning and the Magna looked downright dowdy and awkwardly styled next to the 35.People used the Magna to lean on while asking me questions.

I dont think you should comment re the looks until you see one in the metal as I wasn't sure about them either from photos.

I agree with you about swaping for a 33. I've owned 33 and 34 and let me tell you as far as drivability goes the 35 is generations ahead.

I still like the 33 and actually prefered it to my 34.

I was wondering if I'd made the right decision getting the 35 but after a month of driving it around I'm hooked :(

Re Performance mine has run 14.5 at the drags.(may get to low 14's when I learn the car more)

Last night at a track meet the 35 was amongst the 32GTR's for lap times stock as a rock and on cheapie compliance tyres. Surprised the hell out of me. Turbo's...who needs em :D

    • It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 馃槀馃槀
    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I鈥檇 get, where I鈥檇 mount the dash etc.  I鈥檓 happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I鈥檇 like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it鈥檚 not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
