Just spoke to the dealer, they took a deposit in good faith this morning. They estimated $120,000 and the final price has not yet been released, neither have the final specs. The only thing that is known for sure is that we will only get one model and they are hoping to start landing cars early 2008. No official announcements until the official release at the Tokyo motor show.

I have a feeling Australia's going to recieve the lowest model of the GTR's.

Exactly what I was thinking when I read the first post.

Come on Nissan Australia, if you're going to bring in one model of the GTR, make it the best.

Also since they're bringing it in officially, if we get the low end model, we can never import the high end model from Japan.

Japan has always had a history of doing that.

Im sure there are a huge number of factors as to why the lower spec car will be sold but guys quit complaining.

Its GOING there! better that than nothing at all right? Youd have every right to complain about it if the GTR was never going there..

besides the last locally sold gtr was the 32 and that was years ago.

count your lucky stars boys and girls! :sorcerer:

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
