Looks like mine (see the pics for my username in the gallery)! It will be the second bayside blue one around - though mine is a RS4S.

Nice colour blue, LOVE that :PBJ: ..have to say though i really dont get the woodgrain only on some bits of the steering wheel Why do they only come with that little bit and not a full wheel of woodgrain? :D ...apart from that nice car...good job :P would have set you back a bit and with compliance do you have to get standard mirrors and stuff??? :P

CAnt wait to see it here in WA...can you take me for a drive when it gets here???:)

didnt see the aero mirrors... there is a front bar like yours for sale on ebay.com.au for $680!!! far out!! youre a lucky man, john... GL with the purchase mate.

Cant beat the luxury estate car interior with woodgrain coupled with the sporty package of a stagea and the sensibility and versitility of a wagon... ahhhh.... love it.

Hope compliancing/regency goes okay for you mate.

Hi Kirstie

The mirrors are factory options, to be honest that was one very attractive thing about the car, apart from the colour (of course). It's top of the range, and had 9 factory options!! Price, well ask me at the next run. Wood grain all over the wheel would / could make it too slippery. I like the wood, it's a bit more luxurious, also really wanted leather. We went over budget a bit!! But not too much. It was a real a real toss up between this or a Yellow RS4S, which was fairly stock, (with 85,000km). The colour did it..... yeah really it was the colour. In 3 months of looking it was the only one that I saw apart from an rs4s which was Non-Turbo and couldn't be imported, (had no kit or anything either).

Definately Happy Jan....... :P

Nice car, well done

The mirrors are actually made by Ganador, not a factory option

They are a little bit smaller in the mirror size, but are still electric.

I had a set on my R33 and have just bought a set for my Stagea.

If that is a flip-out TV/Nav thingy then its not the factory one. I have the factory option which is made by Xanavi (they do the tv/navigation systems for all nissans - including current models).

Either way if its a japanese system then the TV will likely only accept ntsc inputs (if it does PAL as well then you have no probs). Others on this forum have managed to connect up a portable digital tv tuner that outputs to ntsc via a connection on the front of the tv unit....maybe you can do something like that?

As far as navigation goes, that will depend on the system used by your unit. The factory Xanavi ones dont work here since the company has no plans to (a) convert them to english and (b) provide australian maps...so thats pretty much a showstopper. I believe some people have removed the internals of the unit and wired in an aussie portable satnav unit to work with the factory screen (including toughscreen capability)...but I dont know how far they got with this...

Good luck with the car - it looks VERY VERY NICE!!!!

Makes me REALLY want a dolphin bodykit (i believe thats the one yours has). :D

    • Order for the 2025 model R35 GT-R were accepted from 3rd March and 26th August the last order rolled off the production line at the Tochigi plant. Concerning the R35 GT-R replacement, current Nissan CEO Ivan Espinosa said "Nothing has been decided about the GT-R at this time, but we are well aware that everyone is waiting. The GT-R will evolve and reappear in the future. Please be patient until that day comes." Nissan has a lot of issues with management and finances so take Espinosa's words with a big grain of salt. From what discussions I've had and read about here in Japan, not a lot of people are confident about Nissan's future, let alone the next GT-R. 
    • Thanks. We getting some parts along too so he will be solving the speed issue like next week so i will let you know what he came up with.   
    • 21 is explicitly the coils detected as the issue. Is it guaranteed the actual issue? No. Just the ECU thinks it is. When you say rattling, describe it better, get an audio clip as best you can if possible.
    • Yea got me coppers. Bad news is I just put them in and the car still has the light and shakes. I also noticed I hear like rattling coming from the exhaust piping right under me. Does 21 also have a possibility of being O2 sensors?   So, coil packs are good, the harness is good, the MAF is working, and obviously the spark plugs just replaced and working.
    • Make sure you drop the GTT base tune back in, and set your injectors again, this will remove anything playing up with it you may have removed. Possibly lean there as it's normally a fast transient going THROUGH atmospheric pressure, and a turbo motor would then quickly go richer as boost builds. The only worry you MIGHT have is ignition timing, as the DE is higher compression than the DET from memory. But again, you're not in boost, so the DE motor will be a lot more forgiving at atmospheric.   Get Murray, Kinkstahs, and Johnny's input on tuning haltechs, those guys have played with tuning enough in the past to be able to help now you're past the trouble shooting stage of the MAP issue
