bear in mind also if you get a R35 as a grey import

you will find it near impossible to insure before they are released in OZ

everything will be in japanese, all the voices will be in Japanese

The Sat Nav wont work

No warrenty

there is no news on when the grey imports will be allowed to be driven on Aust roads

Will be limited to 180km/h EVERYWHERE including the race track

current estimates that ive read on local cost of the GTR will be ~150k form your local nissan dealer

everything will be in english

will have a warrenty

uncapped speed limit

HOWEVER I have herd rumors that Aust will be getting a slightly detuned model, but that is just a rumor

Personally id keep the R34 atleast until the JDM R35s have approval to be driven on Aust roads

Hi

but it looks like i need wait to end of 2009 to get new GTR.

Maybe i will sell the V-spec2 Nur and still import one R35GTR.

cheers

How Much for the Nur o too dream Maybe its time to take that job offer in WA hahah f**k that.

R34 V-spec2 Nur = how many $$$$$$$

Do you have any pictures of it?

You raised a good point there i would prob just wait for the release from Nissan Oz

how is this any different to people insuring $120K R34 GTR's when they first got here? Shannon's wouldn't care

there is no news on when the grey imports will be allowed to be driven on Aust roads if they get it all cleared before the 18month window closes, which is likely, it will be fine

Will be limited to 180km/h EVERYWHERE including the race track numerous ECU "upgrade" options already available to get around this

uncapped speed limit wouldn't be so sure about that

well fuel considerations need to be made, but it's not like they're purposefully sending out lower power versions

    • Wow ELVIS. You have an....interesting approach to conversation. Did you not notice that I wasn't talking to you?
    • 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.
