I would like a really clean photo of the side badge off the R35. Straight on shot.

I have this one but if you look close there is a bug sitting on it.

Photoshop, mate...photoshop.

Hows this?

Bug> What bug???

Farkin Ace mang!

cept...well...you know that dust you can see around the top edge of the badge,....???? :)

Reckon you could magic that away too, bruv?

with the right money.. anything is possible...

Money cant get past the law for the common citizen...

Im 100% sure it was a Personal Import.

There is no other way.

Makes sense...the cars been here in Tokyo for over a year now...i was at the Tokyo motorshow for the launch...

I can 1,000,000% assure you it is not a personal import (number one fact it is a 2008 build, number 2 fact you have to own the car in Jp for over a year {or is it 2 years now?}). The import has been approved by RCVS and there are only 1 or 2 workshops in Aus that can bring in 25 each. All of the plates have already been allocated as far as I know, but for some reason this plate was issued quicker than the others, as bureaucratic red tape is holding issue of plates up. There are probably cars sitting in workshops with all the compliance work already done, just waiting for the green plate.

RVCS approval (click)

Under the RCVS approval you HAVE to buy the car direct from Nissan Jp (so anyone who brought one in prior to the ruling cannot comply it) and the car has to be brand spanking new (under 20 kilometres). International Motor Group had the compliance done by GT Compliance on this one, and they are well known for getting things done first.

You can buy one from these guys (click)

There is someone hocking complied ones on Car Sales, but the price is too cheap - so not sure what that is all about.

R35GTRs for sale

edit regarding this comment :

Mate, have some common sense - anyone who is anyone knows the R35GTR was released December 6 2007 .... whether they were 'launched' at the motor show or not.

lol, I'm 100% sure you are 100% wrong. This may shock you, but things happen in the world you may not know about. That car was imported eariler this year to sydney as a test car. It was complied and registered in Sydney and then sold to a buyer in adelaide. it is not a personal import so I don't know how you got to be 100% sure of that...

Well come on then - go out there are try to bring in for yourself an R35 without going by the regulations.

Youre regular enough surely?

While I wasn't specifically talking about car importation (although I have no doubt that you could do it with enough cash and knowing the right people) the simple fact of the matter is that your comment "Money cant get past the law for the common citizen..." is proven wrong every week, inside (and out of) our courtrooms :thumbsup:

...and anyway it appears that the Baron has cleared up the matter.

I was so hoping this thread was just going to go away quietly... :thumbsup:

I saw Jasons pic of the car in sydney but didnt click on it being sold to Martin.

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
