Hey Guys

I was working at Nissan head office today and went for a wonder around the engineering compound, i happened to find this car sitting in one of the corners locked up. I never seen one on the road so i dont know if they were ever released here but i could be wrong, anyway i was told that the car was 99% sure to end up in the crusher:(

Gotta love them seats, i was ready to try and take em home with me:)

yep, never sold here. I've seen quite a few in japan and actually my friends wants to buy one. they are very reasonable price wise. from memory the s-tune package is about 1mil yen over the price of the 350 and you can get it that way from a nissan dealrship. I really hope that at least they strip the f$%k out of it before crushing it. Or even better they may as well just re-export it back to japan. I know of at least one dude in tokyo who would buy it! lol.

im guessing its at the head office in dandenong.

its on the cnr of frankston-dandenong rd and quality drive in dandenong i believe :)

I believe that is purely there head office, they have what looks like a factory (never been in there so dont know) back towards princess hwy, i would guess that its more of an agreement with nissan japan since it is wearing vic plates already so im guessing it has already gone though all the rego requirements.

    • Hello Liam - HA - somewhere in flies - possibly I have an update, but I have been so busy, projects have taken a back seat to getting business back on track.  I will let you know the outcome, but I think I am going to go for the 8HP,  CHEERS.  ELVIS
    • Thanks Joshuaho96, yes - as someone else also suggested, the 8HP seems the 'smart choice' - HA - and ZERO to do with cost, but I am sure 8 speeds will be better than 6 speeds - HA - maybe.  I will purchase a new 8HP,  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Nobody said anything about getting a "...cheap Falcon box..."- it was JUST a question about a specific transmission.  And YOU may have a problem with not enough $ - HA - I do NOT - so please keep your comments like you are some financial guru to yourself.  BUT - much appreciated re the cost of a new 8HP and I twill probably be the way I go.  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Most people I know in the BMW world are swapping 6HPs for 8HPs. The 6HP has a big issue with one of the clutch drum bushings wearing out shockingly early which leads to them going into limp mode going into 5th/6th gear as the oil pressure loss from the worn bushing causes clutch slip. Even with the adaptations in shifting the TCU can't bump line pressure enough to keep the clutches from slipping and burning. I've personally looked at a 335d with 6HP28 with one owner and ~90k miles on it and the transmission adaptations were way out of spec and even though it nominally drove ok I'm confident it would have needed a full rebuild sooner than later. Other than that they're fine, but the 8HP doesn't really have weird issues like this to my knowledge and they're in everything these days so pulling them out of crashed cars isn't too hard.
    • There is an ABS pump and a few solenoids. You could trigger the front/rear solenoids with a pressure bleeder attached with a Consult 2.
