I still find it silly that Nissan Oz won't supply parts to non-Nissan Oz imported cars.

It's these grey cars that are out there (ok maybe not the pure road rego ones) bringing brand awareness when racing, not to mention added and valued turnover of parts.

My way of thinking is Nis Aus should have a re-think, maybe obtain the names and VIN's of the rally rego examples in Australia, and support those guys with parts.

By this I mean the likes of Jones, Giant, Leihmus, Alford, Quinny etc ... they're all out there racing these things, not daily driving them.

No - if Oz ever does implement the Traffic Alert systems then the GT-R is ready for it and the button will actually do something. My Mrs has the same thing in her VW as well.

Its just that they don't do anything now because Oz isn't set-up currently to support it.

Not good on Nissan refusing to sell those Major serviced parts to none Nissan garages. Do you think garages would be able to source the major parts from Nissan Japan???? If something big in the car breaks will we be able to repair these major parts?

Wouldn't want to have to ship the car back to Nissan Japan just to get it fixed cause its impossible to get the parts. Surely these major parts can be brought from Japan???

Btw the JDM R35's Radio doesn't work in mine, wrong bands etc, my "Carwings" don't deploy either, but I get a nice picture of the Japanese sea when i push it.

Dont' think there is a button to get to Tyre Pressure in the JDM R35. But I just push the Talk button and say in a slightly Angry Japanese voice "TY-YA" and the lovely Japanese girl under the hood brings up my tyre pressure for me everytime LOL. (its in Jap measurements but you can convert that, didn't even know it had that feature till I spent 5 minutes yelling various Japanese sounding words at my Japanese voice control to see what features I could bring up that I hadn't seen before.

The JDM has CF Card so I put in a 16 GIG SD card with all my iphone MP3 Music on it, works great. Find it hard to believe Nissan Australia took the super cheap option and removed this feature which would of saved them what? $200? Leaving the music box which is very limited. The USA models even have CF card & a +$400 Ipod intergration option if you want it. Piss poor of Nissan Australia on that one. Considering you can't put a new stereo system in they really should of left the CF card.

Must say i'd love to have a ADM one for the new launch control option under warrenty. Not that you really need launch control in this car but would be nice to do it without the threat of breaking the tranny.

It's not ALL imported Nissan's, just R35 GTR's that I'm to understand.

Similar to HSV and the Walkingstick VL, you had to quote the VIN to be able to purchase parts.

Nissan with R35 parts are doing the same.

Macarthur Nissan help me with imported parts for my KHR30 PNV lots.

As Duncan said, they haven't learnt much in 15 odd years.

Some might understand how Toyota did the same with Celsior's vs LS400 Lexus & Soarer's vs SC400 Lexus.

Cheers, D

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
