2.5 models will be able to be landed for the same price as v35 sedans low 20's it will be more expensive for the 3.5 6 speed manuals as alex says probably between 30 to 40k

it would make a great family cruiser me thinks my grandparents are looking at one

have a go at the camber on those rear wheels... drift camber. a 5k launch would leave to blck mark for 30m - but each one would be about 2 inches wide... and youd be seein more canvas than a circus tent.

I am looking at M35's now but the manual ones will end up costing more around the 40-50 mark compared to a 260rs being 30-40 (on road for both)

M35 is definatly hotter and id get free compliance here in Melbourne, but still...

My mate might bring in a Legnum and cop free compliance too from a workshop ive spoken to.

i seond cruiseliner to go for a 260rs anyday over the m35. You have to remember M35 is a NA engine same engine that the Z uses. 3.5ltr drinks a bit as well. And theres not much mod you can do to a M35 other than the nismo tunes one. Apprently theres M35 in Oz already in carsales or carpoint. I saw it when i was searching for a 260rs. From memory its a gold color one selling at 50k.

Yes it does come out in a single turbo VQ25DET with a 6sp manual trans, mmMMmmMMmmMMmmm not bad!

I wonder if AUTech are going to make a 260/M35 version....? With all the bits bolting on to the M35 that bolt onto a 300ZX I doubt it would be hard to whack another turbo on and put a tough drivetrain in.....

huhuhuhu!!!!!! I can feel 360Rs in the air!!!

:)

So the only way to get one of these into the country at the moment is through a private import right?

Or has someone got a low volume licence for them?

Considering that one in NZ is only about $13000 AUD you must be able to get a manual 2.5T for under 20K So landed that would be about $25K right???

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
