i dont think its a big deal now...

theres actually a few out already.

$150,000 isnt insanely unreasonable for a motor vehicle...

if you think about it, there are a fair few cars on the road that actually cost the same as that or even more...

every SL500 or SL55s cost nearly double that...

i saw an R35 GT-R at Nth Sydney's "DEMiR Furniture" with his custom plates.

a shop that always has a black Lamborghini Gallardo a yellow Lamborghini Murcelago, Porsche GT3, Ferrari Modena, BMW M3... its really no big deal for 150,000$

I know i wont be affording a car at taht price in this life time thats for sure.

Its $177k on the road, and 27k extra than the $150k price tag isnt taht easy to find for some, ie me!

I thought they were going to be $155k drive away!

well thats the local domestic one...

the import used one is around 150k?

i wonder whats gonna happen with the SEVS rule for this...

since they are selling them domesticly, importing the same vehicle is usually prohibited to protect the countrys economy.

hmmmm

need answers from the importers here

yeah i never quite understood whomevers riches...

a few mates have rumoured to me that there is some sort of "car club" out there which you pay like 30,000$ a year and you get to drive various different exotics and swap them around with other members etc. (which they seem to refuse to beleive he or she owns them ALL)

unless he really does own them all?

hmmm

I'm not an importer, but the rule has always been the same: As long as you don't import a car manufactured WHILE it was locally available here in Australia, then you're fine.

Example 1: the R32 GT-R was available from 1989 through to 1993, but was only officially sold here through Nissan in around 1992, so anything before or after the time they were OFFICIALLY on sale via Nissan Australia is okay to bring into the country. You can also bring in any(?) GTS or GTSt R32s because they were never available here at all...

Example 2: the Z32 300ZX was never officially brought into Australia with the twin-turbo VG30, so you CAN import one of them because it's different from what Nissan offered.

Example 3: the S15 Silvia was also only brought into the country for a certain period, so anything outside that time is fine. Also, the S15 Varietta was never available at all, so you can get one of those too (but they are pretty rare, and are all non-turboed SR20s with an auto-box).

yeah i had a look..... the GT-R is not available yet and is coming soon... so i guess hes got to own that one......

Yeah he just buys whatever he wants to drive. Hard life!

yeah, tell me about it....

he doesnt have to live like a scum, thats for sure...

i knew that... the EVO 7 and 8 were prohibited but because the car was discontinued, you can purchase it through importeres

so the R35 is coming to aust soon the imports wont be able to really sell them as they are doing now.

Im sorry mate, but 170k is quite a bit of money for a car - its not exactly a bag of peanuts is it. Anything above the 100k mark is almost too much to pay for a depreciable asset.

But then again, if you've got the cash - why not?

Should be a R35 GT-R this Sunday at the R34 Anniversary Event.

yes..dont get me wrong...170,000$ is shit loads alot of money to me as well

you could buy studio apartments for that price.

but what i mean is... there are ALOT of people that could afford that in AUST..

what i meant was..

how many 2009 Aston martins have you seen?

they the average price for them cars are 297,000$ - 497,000$

how many 2009 BMW m5s have you seen?

they are rrp $241,000 for base model

m3s are 162,000$ for base model

i see suprising amount of Cl500 Mercs...

they are $320,000

you always see porsches driving around...some of the 911s are around 240,000$

the other day i saw a Gran Turismo - Maserati 2009' in blacktown

thats 302,000$ rrp.

some people just simply have money....

looking at the R35 GT-R & its price tag... to a majority of us, it screams "Dream on"..

but to some people, its not a dream.

Peanuts? well nothings peanuts dude... but for Demir. the 170,000$ for the R35 could be 1,700$ in comparison/ratio to your wallet or even less? or even 170$ to him...

so if the car was worth 1,700$ in comparison to you...would you buy that car?

(If Bill gates saw the 170,000$ price tag, its 17cents to his wallet :P )

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
