Im just going to throw this one out there and see what those in the know think of it...

A mate of mine and I were talking about the possibilities of importing the lowrider pimp scooters that may or may not be floating about in Oz at the moment.

There are an absolute plethora of them in and around Tokyo and im looking into buying one for my own use.

I know Australia has the Berghman and the Forza but im not sure about the other brands.

If importing the bikes isnt possible we are thinking of customized parts importing.

Anyone feel kind enough to lend some words of advice?

Cheers.

Guys, i have some homework and i have questions here.

I understand a vehicle will need to be supplied as a sample and then applied for importation approval through a RAW for the SEVS register but can any RAW complete this procedure?

The goal of this is being the addition of the particular model on the SEVS register.

Im showing my greenness here but is it correct for me to say the vehicle needs to pass 2 out of 4 of the initial design requirements? Something along the lines of appearance and publications? If i can manage to get the thing published and prove its design uniqueness, this goes toward SEVS registration?

      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!
