SkylineV35

Cars looking amazing bud!

Sorry guys been so busy enjoying my baby forgot to take some decent pictures of the car.... (this was the damaged side..) (this is the new spoiler) Took her for a wheelalignment too thought id get a picture of how the rear mudguards totally change the rear end My new doorlights..each to there own but i love them haha Had the calipers all sprayed purple until i save up for the D2 brake kit =) Overall im mega satisfied with the work done and would highly recommend the guys at Carmichaels (CF14 1PS) Really patient guys I was in nearly every day during the finishing stages, had them spray and respray different parts like the grill, badges, calipers, rims trying out different colour combinations until I got what I wanted! Big Thanks to Zmanalex for the door!! Saved alot of headache sourcing. Also big thanks to Heath tyres Cardiff for the alignment it handles like its on rails now! the previous alignment done by Paisley Kwikfit was way off on the rears and the guy even showed me that the bolts that were needed to correct alignment hadnt even been touched =_= also got some new rear tyres as the rear were nearly superslicks, also from heath tyres amazing price for 255 40 19s with a 60pounds fuel gift card too! Also fitted fitted the D1 spec throttle controller from EP Racing and it has been a blast! Its basically like having sports mode like you get on other cars. All these things have just made my car feel like I have a Brand new car truelly over the moon! Thanks everyone for the support too! Now to save up some more money for some more tuning hehe

a few more things have arrived! Samco hoses and D1 spec throttle controller(thanks Epracing!) Rear oem splashguards ....still waiting on a few more things...feels like xmas come early this year!

lmao its just a good excuse for a full respray and to go all out and buy stuff iv been holding off for haha

going purple!! hence all the checking up on d2 etc lol

Just a lil update... so far so good haha car is looking like something from madmax i would take off the bonnet and drive like that if it were legal! lol The K11 colour rims came out great too! Not long now!! Will get better pictures of the rims when its done but they look brand new! Anticipation is killing me!!!

I would want to cram an RB engine in from R34 lol and make it a real skyline!

Thank you very much for the info yup im doing the brakes and handling as we speak, Yes I wanted to try do it in stages and eventually forge internals and up the boost etc. I know i could just buy an R34 and get mega power out of it but i wanted something different hence why i have a V35 but i feel like im used to the power now maybe go exhaust hfc etc then uprev will keep me entertained for a while =) thanks for the info though everyone.

That is such a piece of string question - Somewhere between £4k and £15k Lol let me have a crack at the question again, How much roughly for a reliable fi kit with standard internals and only pushing 350bhp or 300whp? Not looking for massive power gains just a little boost with reliability just to liven things up abit.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3M2nSMzdxg8 I would keep S2k Na =) but I would go Honda NSX and then turbo

I had spoilers like that on my previous cars and (on the autobahn) at 80mph+ you feel that backend push down its a nice comforting feeling

That's an interesting read, it basically tells me that there is only a few feet difference from JDM brakes to a 356mm £2000 package. Maybe they were only using stoptechs 4 pots? I dont know iv tried to find information on what calipers but doesnt tell you in there packages..

I would say abit of both but more concerned with performance but i tend to use super-late braking in corner entry. Im aiming for 350wbhp or there abouts.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3M2nSMzdxg8 Na power...Espirit 350z.....End of lol!

Where are you based?

I like it nice with the sidesteps

I have a Blitz SUS, but id prob go for apexi given your choices =)

Yeah i suppose my car weighs like a bus anyway lol a lil more weight wont matter haha..

" Brembo brakes were removed for the 2005 and 2006 models, and the brakes were redesigned with larger discs and a different caliper design. This was partly in response to a number of complaints about the previous years' brakes, which included a class action lawsuit filed in California related to premature wear on 2003–2004 models" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infiniti_G 2006 refresh

Yup im on JDM 2005 Kouki revised brakes which are larger then jdm 350z brakes i think.. http://www.jlimports.com.au/nissan-skyline-350gt-v35-coupe 2005 revisions

Ahh ok thanks, but surely pipework is cheap and can be fabricated easily to suit? Or is the cost difference between a RHD and LHD setup the same? Just heard that RHD are hard to get a hold of because mostly US based kits..

Wow I learned awhole lot more thanks! But just a quickie.. Why does it matter RHD and LHD on turbo kits for VQ35de engine?

Is there new link? Sorry I know this is ancient thread. Got to admire your quest for info, PM the following for S/C info, Keyser, GT4 Zed, Octet, Sam Mcgoo and Andy James for TT, apologies to anyone I missed Thanks il try and get to grips with different setups before pestering everyone!haha as I can be annoying at times..

Did this get finished? If so how much? And would NA cars benefit or only Fi?

Is there new link? Sorry I know this is ancient thread.
