Hi guys,

I have a Nissan Laurel C35 in NZ and I'm re-locating back to Victoria.

I am eligible under the personal import scheme to bring it with me, and have been told this make and model is not prohibited.

Just wondering if any one has some ideas as to how much it would re sell for over there (trying to work out if it's worth my while!)

Cheers,

Kimmy.

Hard to know how much it would sell for over here because we can't import them hence no one owns them, therefore none are sold, so we don't have any examples to compare against.

Closest thing I could suggest would be comparing it to something like a JZX100 or something similar 1jz powered toyota sedan.

I know I'd be keen to buy it if you did bring it over.

dont bring it over :happy:

it'll devalue my race/rally c35 lol

with minor mods and assuming its the rb25det manual

I'd say around 17k its what I'll be after for mine when I'm lookin to sell it

blacktop sr hks 2835 expecting around 250rwkw though so it even's out

hell I'd be keen to take it off your hands once it gets here

Is yours road legal?

Its a 2000, 2.5 NEO with tiptronic and steering wheel shifts.

This will be road legal, so I guess that means it will be worth a bit more??

I just wanted a rough idea on what someone would be willing to pay for it. :blink:

Thanks for the replies guys.

Well maybe you should go post that gem of information in the News section, because this thread is clearly about importing a C35 laurel which are not eligible for import under normal circumstances.

Back on topic, I don't think the auto box would make too much difference to it's potential value, considering it could possibly be the only road registered C35 in australia, and it's not like there wouldn't be parts available to do a manual conversion. How much is it going to cost you to bring it over?

yeh i know its not a c35 but its still a laurel we do have them in aus clearly

Dropped on your head lately? Lol...

I rekon it would be worth bringing over for sure, assuming its rb25det. Nice car, would have bought one instead of the aristo if they were available in aus

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
