Sorry, I should have been more specific. Was it in a car yard in Japan (that J-Spec contacted), or did J-Spec bid on it for you at auction in Japan?

Cheers :w00t:

It was with a dealer/caryard

A few days earlier I payed 390,000 FOB for a series 1 98 dayz model with 109k's from auction

wow thats incredible - less than 12.5k landed and complied... that devalues mine a lil bit then ey. Its done more than 3x the distance mine had, though, i guess.

Oh and it has the DAYZ kit... ive noticed that the grey ones are generally a lil bit cheaper, theres a lot more of them.

How would it go being complianced though, having had a manual conversion, big wheels, exhaust and suspension? what do you have to do with that?

most things have to be put back to standard....mine is just a dayz 97 model which had wheels and sports suspension and i had to get standard rims and i had to borrow stock suspension off another stagea driver to get it over compliance! (which is still going..2 and half weeks later) I think it also really depends on your compliance place, but majority of them return the car to 'stock' :P

So what they have to put an auto back into it????

hmm i dont see the point of buying a "race import only" stagea if that is the case. says 12,100 landed and complied... how accurate is that, then?

Sounds like buying a modified car can be more trouble than its worth, even one as cheap as this. May be that is why its cheap. hassle-tax.

i would have no idea about the manual..hopefully they would let that through :

as for the 12,100 landed and complied i dont think that would be too close to the mark...cause that is just standard compliance that doesnt take into account taking parts off getting standard parts fitting those and then putting the others back one...hopefully the compliance shop wouldnt take advantage and charge a fortune...

i tell you mine was 10600 landed and complied and i am going to hit about 13k so it was a little off the mark for mine too, but that is because of my extras that had to be taken off and put back on and find stock parts etc!

The shop doing my compliance has stock parts in the shop ie shocks, wheels, exhaust

Only charges $50/hr to remove and replace if needed, so maybe 2-4 hrs if needed

Also, what does the WA shop charge for compliance out of interest?

I was quoted $13,800 landed and complied

Will be $13,450 landed and complied

yeah darrin if i did go to brisbane i think i wouldnt have had much dramas as bretts (MrGTST) seemed to have no problems and was pretty much what we were told.

WA is more expensive than brissie...but with all of the extras they are charging i think i will be the 5k mark just to get the bloody thing complied! The only reason why it came to wa is because it was suppose to be here 3 weeks before bretts was....and brett got his yesterday :P I think mine will be able 13k on the road ready to go

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks
