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.

    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
