Yeah, unless you have a RAWS certification then you can't... however if you go with J-spec or Risbey then you can personally import one, using their name.

What he meant is you can't apply for import authorisation as you don't have the right certification. But any private importers will be able to do that for you.

Nah, under the old scheme all the paperwork was in your own personal name. You applied for the permit and everything yourself and all the risk was with you. Under the new scheme private imports are only allowed for 15 year old cars and for private cars you owned whilst overseas.

With RAWS, only a RAW can apply for and import a vehicle. The car is in their name at all stages of the import process and all the paperwork is in the name of the RAW. They can certainly import one for you but it just won't be in your name, thats all.

Was it Bill or John who told you that?? On a personal note, SEI motors are quite expensive...

To import you must own and be a RAW, no mention of LMCP anywhere in the RAWS requirements.

Anyway there are currently only 3 RAWS in victoria !

One is cross over car conversions which does JAP stuff and the other 2 are US stuff, left to right conversions on chevy trucks.

But there are more in the process, UPimports will be up and running soon i beleive.

      I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.

      Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.

      Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them?

      I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.

      Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
