just want to know who imported it? cos there is no australian compliance plate on it anymore = :3some: for me

or does anyone have it? its got an aussie vin on the rego papers and stuff but just not one on the car itself

I wouldnt be too worried about it mate, the driveline has been replaced :) I imported it and if I recall I had it about 2 years roughly. Then ross bought it but he treated it really well and resprayed it etc, after that I have no idea.

It didnt get a compliance plate because it was imported under the "15 year rule" (now the 30 year rule), therefore it only had to meet a few minor standards such as new aust spec seatbelts (hence why its only a 4 seater - it came as a 5 seater), non convex drivers mirror(hence flat bit of mirror glued to original haha). Other than that it had to meet a general roadworthy for Tasmanian Transport. SO, that said, it never had, nor did it require a compliance plate :) Oh and the VIN on the firewall is the stock Nissan one, no numbers were put on the car at all. You should see the import papers - theres pages and pages and pages!.....

Heres one of the pictures as it sat in the caryard in Japan:

do you have the import papers?

its just that i'll be going up to qld at the end of the year for about 3 months and they absolutely love imports so it would be great if i had something to wave in their faces when they ask as i doubt they would know about the 15 year old rule and all that

another question tho, howcome the vin on the rego is different to the one stamped on the car? surely there would have to be some documentation to say what its aus vin is?

oh and any idea if its all stock inside the motor? i swear it redilnes at 8500 (but could have been more)

Edited by pipster11

the aus vin 'should' be the same , except add like 6u9000 + ecr32456789(example) and it 'should' be stamped on the strut tower , compliance for 15y/o+ imports used to be : baby seat bolts on rear shelf , adr approved seat belts , flat mirror and roadworthyness :P , now its pre 88 which is easier (you don't have to stamp the vin now pretty much)

Yeah I have all the papers, there is literally over 150 pages... the modifications the car has would be more of a worry than the import documents imo.

That VIN on the firewall was there from the factory, I promise :D, as for why the VIN is different on the rego papers - I have no idea! Maybe they assign it an Aust number on the papers which references to the one on the car when they look it up on the computer? I'm not sure.

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
