Yep I've got one. I bought mine from a dealer local to me in sydney.

Unfortunately with the exchange rate being what it is many importers are holding off importing more of these for the time being.

I'll sell you my one if you're interested :cool:

LOL nah it'll take me awhile to get what I'm after. All the ones I've seen imported have been silver. I'm after a red manual with the Premium Package. A fella I spoke to up your way said to wait till round mid year and the exchange rate may be a bit more favorable. But if the right car turns up in the mean time $69K isn't to bad for one.

I'm glad I bought when I did, I didn't pay anywhere near that and still wouldn't knowing what they roughly were imported for, any dealer saying their current imported stock is that price due to the exchange rate is spouting b/s. Maybe $65K+ is understandable if they did bring one in after say october 2008 but most of them have held off bringing in any more due to the exchange rate, not cost effective for them

although... I do miss manual, the auto in the v36 is probably one of the best I've seen, but it's not the same as a gear shifter

in all aspects they are a fantastic car for the price with the latest tech, and acceptable power in stock form. makes the R series look and feel even more dated than they already are and are a big step forward from the v35, I tried out a v35 back when I opted to buy 350z instead, the v35 didn't feel or look right to me, whereas I think they got it right in the v36

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
