Plenty of parts easily available in the states already, twin turbo kits, super charger kits, forged internal parts and even fully built cosworth crate engines.

I'd only ever seen one in Ireland untill I bought this. Millions of infinity g35's(identical car) in the states though.

Good lord! That is stunning! Are they 4wd?
I love these cars. Your V35 is a lovely example. I dont know why more people dont mod them as opposed to the usual run of the mill Jap car.
They have huge potential...........

No mine is rwd but there is a 4wd version, 350GTx or Infinity G35x. Mine is manual too which the majority aren't.

Well its been a long time since I've done anything to this but I decided that its brakes, being non brembo ones, needed upgrading so I decided that it would be the test bed for something new I'm doing:D
So here they are, custom grooved disks, the first set which I can now provide for any car!
I can have them done in any design but decided on a simple straight groove.
so far they are doing the trick as the brakes are no longer overheating on my favorite back road!:D

just for clarification, they are all defo JDM yea?
i.e. its under 10 years old and a hassle to import, and people might not bother importing them as oppose to other cars.
and dont 350z's and new Skyline's not have the brembos like the UKDM ones?
love the car!
grooves look like to be a win win mod.

Yes its under 10 years old(06) and Due to the vrt hikes they would be very expensive to import now.
As for brembo's, all Uk spec 350z's have them, but not all japanese(fairlady z) or US ones do. with the skyline there is of course no UK version but the brembo's are a factory option in japan and came with the sport pack on USDM models(infinity G35).
The option of brembo's also only applied to manual skyline 350's.
