It sounds like people are leading you up the garden path or at least not making it easy for you to understand your options. You should be able to import this car under the 'personal import' laws which is totally different to the SEVS compliance scheme, so you will not need to meet the SEVS compliance requirements however the car will need to be legal in Brisbane.

Please feel free to call me directly on 0400 502 250 (+61400502250 from NZ) and I will be happy to go through things in more detail for you if necessary.

We usually over allow a little on our estimated prices so there is a good chance that it will be slightly under budget unless there are any unforseen costs along the way, in any case it will usually be within a few hundred dollars either way.

Please call us regarding your specific car, the information noted on our website is mainly for 'SEVS compliance' laws which effect most people - you case would be different as you should be able to import under the 'personal import' laws which I would like to explain to you in more detail.

The personal import laws are a LOT more relaxed so you will not need to return the car to totally standard or replace tyres if they are in good condition already.

he jspec , why not reply to some of your emails for cars on your website rather than reply to posts on this site not even directed to you ?

not ragging on you are anything but I gave up using your company cause I couldnt even get a respone out of you

the funny thing is the cars i enquired in december and got no response about are still on your list now

      My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.

      Automatic Power Button Light Flashing

      Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).

      Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers

      Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
