Hey guys, got a but of a problem just ran my vin number through the nissan fast program which came back showing it was manufactured on the 3rd month of 1998.

I then went to my car and had a look at the compliance sticker and its stated on that the cars date of manufacture is the first month of 1998...

I am a bit lost on why this could be..

Can anyone shed some light on my little problem??

Thanks :P

G'day Ross,

It could be mistake on paperwork when it was imported?

Who imported the 33? (Importer details might be on the Compliance plate)

If in doubt, contact DOTARS (number in import/compliancing section of this forum).

Hope it helps.

Cheers

Grant

p.s. - you sure have put up heaps of topics lately!

Did you bought it from a dealer (Awesome Autos in Seaford by any chance?)?

If you're worried about build plate and compliance plate not matching you could contact Dept of Transport and ask

http://www.infrastructure.gov.au/roads/veh...cles/index.aspx there's phone number floating somewhere in this site.

Hope it helps.

I went to this place to talk about trading in my 32 GTST and saw this, I'd be driving around in this if it was manual. I ended up buying manual one from private seller.

It looked super clean, how has it been treating you so far?

haha yer it is very clean, cant get over that coincidence or what small world.

Yer the auto was a bit of a downside but i went looking at a few others although i couldnt find one as clean mine now so i just got it, thinking manual conversion in the future but who knows.

Hows your car going?

Hey,

My 33 is good but requires bit of work, bought it without roadworthy but for price and mods i got it for I couldn't pass it up. So far, still waiting on few parts before visiting mechanic for roadworthy inspection, should be fun.

Have bought fair amount of parts for it and slowly filling the garage.

Feel free to add me on msn to chat more if you'd like ([email protected]) providing if you have and use msn :P

Cheers

Grant

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
