Hahaha no warranty if you dont have standard tyres? This just gets better and better. So, as i expected they're working the whole "car must be 100% genuine" to still have warranty. Who has a price on genuine tyres from a dealership? Please post up if you do To anyone from Nissan; Thanks for being so predictable.

Do it and see what they say

I hope this isnt the case, but i think you're all in for another R35 ownership shock. Dealership: "You need new brake discs and pads" R35 owner: "Oh, ok, well what are my options?" D: "Genuine parts" R: "What about DBA, ACDelco, Mines even" D: "If you want to keep your warranty, you must use genuine parts" R: "Ok, well, how much are they?" .....i hope you can all see where im going here Take Holden for example, i have a 2000 Berlina V6 for towing the GTR, I took it into Holden to get serviced - all fluids and brake discs/pads. Fluids were marked up as you'd expect, but the discs were going on $200ea - when i questioned it i was offered ACDelco parts (sold through the dealership), priced at $77ea. Thats a significant difference for a shitty Holden and according to the Holden employee - the exact same part, so what will Nissan Australia (a company renowned on these forums for outrageously marked up items) do IMO? The same thing, high prices for parts - and continue to use the warranty as a threat to drive more revenue through parts sales. FYI the Holden was out of warranty. As i said, i hope this isnt the case - but look at their past actions

You get more than you bargain for with Nissan stealerships. Have any of you guys on pre order for R35's asked for an indication of servicing prices? Or, parts prices? If so, please post them up Id love to know the costs of the consumables, eg, brake discs, brake pads, tyres, filters etc. We all know the engine/gearbox will be costly to get a genuine replacement for (dont forget, there's always aftermarket options, should the worst happen, which as r32/3/4 owners have realised is a better option as its more cost effective and offers a better product at the end of the day), but seriously, if you guys want to track the cars id still stand by my original comments on a JDM 35 - they dont come with a warranty and there's no point in having an Australian warranty as Nissan Aust wont stand by their product (when i say theirs, i mean bought from Nissan Japan) as soon as you're using it for what they built it for (a racecar), advertised it as (a racecar), sell it as (a racecar). With that said, i do feel sorry for anyone who's given Nissan a deposit to only be deceived like this.

Would love to...but i doubt ill be able to go

What comparison, RB30 has it all over the RB26! That should do it

You'll need to put up a price And to help yourself, dont put "or reasonable offer", just put up a realistic price and you should sell it quickly

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHa Great seat covers! Why not let SAU do it up for you? Im sure there would be a heap of old parts people would be happy to donate as long as you're willing to "install" them.... (not that none of these parts would actually be used, just cosmetic ) Anyone got a spare FMIC? Oil cooler core? (lines not needed, it looks more ghetto when not plugged up) Rims? Roof spoiler? Dildo gear knob? Exhaust cannon? Pod airfilter? Bonnet vent - wrx style? Roof vent - again, wrx style?

RB36 hey, that would be nice

A good place to start if you want to question what Ralliart australia offered would be your local mitsubishi/ralliart dealership You'd want to hope nissan australia at least ussed out what the competition offer their customers and tried to "top" that offer

lol, here we go

Just spotted Kels 350z and Duncans racecar at my place. Duncans R32 isnt exactly subtle - and thats just how i like it

First off, the Aus delivered late model Evo's came with track support. Not sure about Porsche, but if any were to be covered id expect the GT3, GT3RS, GT2 and Turbo models to be covered - as they're sold as "the road legal racecars" Ok, onto the GTR; Why did you have to ask? Not all sales reps are good at what they do, the better ones will find out what you're going to use the product for and give you ALL the related information, leaving you with only one question; "When do i get it". Unless they're instructed otherwise by their boss... Is that a cash cow? Of course it is. Will you have to use OEM parts? Nissan will surely try and make you believe that you have to (and may threaten to void warranty if you dont as a scare tactic to make more parts sales as they actually make coin on the parts, unlike the initial car sale, look at any number of car makers for examples of this). Just for a laugh, go and get a price for "supply only 2 x R34 GTR standard front rotors", then remember that the R35 has a larger disc and Nissan Aus will surely be aware of the money that they can make on parts, and as they have customers so scared about losing the warranty will no doubt take advantage of this. I honestly hope they dont require you to use OEM brake gear, there's already better priced replacement parts out there that not only have the upper hand price wise, but have been improved on the stuff Nissan sells. And its only early days, wait until places like ACDelco make discs for the R35....

That one ICI is advertising has RB25 on the build plate, so it looks like it started life as a normal STag then was converted to 260rs spec later in its life No doubt it would haul ass though!

Thats cause you were still drunk at 10am....and there was that other thing, of course

Hoooooray!

R31Nismoid was referring to the stickied thread at the top of this section " RB26 Dyno Results thread" -5's WILL, WILL do 500rwhp.

R32 GTR FMIC, $160 delivered. If thats fine PM me.

Yeah easy fix Or dont put the wheels on until that service is completed

No shirt for you!!!

Get an rb20 in there

Mmmm.....funny you mention that setup; (taken from rb30 results thread) The only real problem is that (like any modified GTR) by the time you're having any decent fun, you're risking jail time But you're right, its a great streeter

Yeah like i said, im pretty much sold on them

Nothing wrong with a microtech. They dont have the same resolution of a haltech, but can be tuned by almost anyone and doesnt take long to tune. They're a more basic computer, but that means there's less stuff to go wrong.

Were you using RE55s?
