How To Get The Gtr From Jap After A Year...


Recommended Posts

me to, my parrents arent povo by any means but they arent filthy rich either. They certainly believe I should earn my own way in this world though. they did pay for my upbringing, my education and even helped me with my first house but thats about it. I STILL THINK THAT I WAS LUCKY ~!

itll be abt 120 but that ways ill have the evospec... and the evospec is not coming to oz from what ive heard... and its limited edition... and vspec prob wont come too i think... and the base will cost 120+...

LOL @ 'vspec' and 'evo-spec' GT-R.

if you're going to get the car, at least know what you're going to get. i highly doubt you are tho.

There are three trim levels:

* Base

* Black Edition

* Platinum Edition

Besides the cost it can't actually be imported under the Personal Import scheme (owned for 12 months or longer).

Exert from DOTARS

To be eligible for a personal import the following criteria must be satisfied:

1. the vehicle has been owned and used by the applicant for a continuous period of at least 12 months (3 months where ownership and use of the vehicle commenced before 8 May 2000);

lol relax mate

if you can do it, good luck.

any reasonable person would wait and get a freshy from Mr Nissan Australia with all the warranty trimmings etc.

realistically you'll get your car the same time as they are released in Aus anyway.

when you do get it, let's go to Calder and I'll wheel out my GTS

all you f*kin jealous ass muthafcking flamers in here

kids got dreams? let him be. If you aim crazy high you will achieve high results regardless.

There are, unfortunately some people out there who do have alot more money. Wats wrong with asking questions for his plans 1-2 years from now? Just cos some of you ppl weren't as lucky as he is dont hate on him.

I know i'm gonna get a warning for this but i dun give a f*k some of you guys need to get off your high horse.

i think you have completely misread the excerpt.

12 months continuous regardless of purchase date

OR

for 3 months if the car was purchased before 8th of may 2000.

if he bought it on 1st of January 2008, he will be able to import it into Oz after 1st of january 2009.

how do you think so many people are bringing in PI's?

you think they have all owned their cars since 2000?

I think its been proven that its not necessarily a smart idea. Given - some people have gone about it in a nasty way, but im sure in two years time he'll be thanking himself when a few people shut this idea down on his behalf rather than blow hot air up his ass, and encourage him to make a rash decision :no:

    • Yup. You can get creative and make a sort of "bracket" with cable ties. Put 2 around the sender with a third passing underneath them strapped down against the sender. Then that third one is able to be passed through some hole at right angles to the orientation of the sender. Or some variation on the theme. Yes.... ummm, with caveats? I mean, the sender is BSP and you would likely have AN stuff on the hose, so yes, there would be the adapter you mention. But the block end will either be 1/8 NPT if that thread is still OK in there, or you can drill and tap it out to 1/4 BSP or NPT and use appropriate adapter there. As it stands, your mention of 1/8 BSPT male seems... wrong for the 1/8 NPT female it has to go into. The hose will be better, because even with the bush, the mass of the sender will be "hanging" off a hard threaded connection and will add some stress/strain to that. It might fail in the future. The hose eliminates almost all such risk - but adds in several more threaded connections to leak from! It really should be tapered, but it looks very long in that photo with no taper visible. If you have it in hand you should be able to see if it tapered or not. There technically is no possibility of a mechanical seal with a parallel male in a parallel female, so it is hard to believe that it is parallel male, but weirder things have happened. Maybe it's meant to seat on some surface when screwed in on the original installation? Anyway, at that thread size, parallel in parallel, with tape and goop, will seal just fine.
    • How do you propose I cable tie this: To something securely? Is it really just a case of finding a couple of holes and ziptying it there so it never goes flying or starts dangling around, more or less? Then run a 1/8 BSP Female to [hose adapter of choice?/AN?] and then the opposing fitting at the bush-into-oil-block end? being the hose-into-realistically likely a 1/8 BSPT male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSPT reducing bush? I am making the assumption the OEM sender is BSPT not BSPP/BSP
    • I fashioned a ramp out of a couple of pieces of 140x35 lumber, to get the bumper up slightly, and then one of these is what I use
    • I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.
    • You are all good then, I didn't realise the port was in a part you can (have!) remove. Just pull the broken part out, clean it and the threads should be fine. Yes, the whole point about remote mounting is it takes almost all of the vibration out via the flexible hose. You just need a convenient chassis point and a cable tie or 3.
