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).

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 )

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
