Thnx!!

if you take it to india, it will most likely be stolen man. Do you plan on living their forever?

Lol.. well im from india man.. Im just here to study and getting stolen is not a problem, i dont think it would be hard to find the only R34 in india!!

And ya i do!!

Where abouts in India are you moving to? I have been working in Hyderabad for a little over a year and an R34 would be rather strange amongst all the Tatas tuk-tuks, goats and buffalo on the roads. But to export your car will be easy on the OZ end of things. Proof of ownership and de-registration is about all i think you would need

It would be out of the world to own a R34 in inidia.. As of now there are no R34's in inidia.. And yea i got a garage with a security.. will have to tighten security if i take the car there...

And im from Bangalore... Hyderabad is a nice place.. i like the roads there :)

The tough part is the customs in india.. it will cost me a bomb to import a skyline there.. its like 170% Duty charges :D

Hmmm.... 170%... Duty based on what?

Does this mean that if you have a bill of sale saying that you've bought your car for $20K, duty on top would be $34K?

Thus, if it's $10K, duty would be $17K?

Or if it were $5K, duty would be an extra $8.5K? Can you legally sell this car to your alter ego for say $3K?

In other words, what is market value of a grey import in India?

yeah, just pay someone off lol. Sounds like your family might be able to find the rigght person to pay off, or atleast have the money to do so lol.

lol terry, whats with the heat comment, r34's come with standard AC and Australia is pretty hot even on a world scale of things lol.

I'd only be worried about finding decent fuel to run the car lol.

seriously though, Zaver you have to do the research yourself, It doesnt look asif anyone has exported a car from Australia to India. On our side, it is easy to send the car over, basically ring rta (vic roads) and they will tell you what to do on our end. Then find a customs shipping broker that deals with india and ask them. They'll set you up with a 20 foot shipping container, insurance for shipping, they may even know the appropriate duty that needs to be paid.... once the car is in the country i'm sure it cant be that hard to get it registered there, ive never been to india but from my limmit4d knowledge about indian cars, i dont think their registration rules are very strict at all lol.

good luck

I knew some guys that used to bring superbikes into India for their own use. Bribing was the only way to go for them, their families were loaded, so a few grand here or there didn't matter.

India already has R35 GTRs.. 5 of the guys i know through a forum have them.. They drag their cars in Hyderabad.

Guy who lives in my area in India has Lamborghini Murciélago LP640//Bentley Flying Spur //BMW 750Li//RR Phantom//BMW M3//Audi R8 and he is only 20 years old..

here is his thread

http://www.team-bhp.com/forum/super-cars-i...-my-garage.html

I did see R34GTR 2 years back so i'll find more information.. i am planning to buy R35 next year and take it with me to India when i move there.

+1 seen plenty of them over there.

Anyways would be keen to see how this plans out for you and if you get the car over there safely.

Good thing is that its so easy to bribe over there :P

But see if you can do all this properly without costing you an arm and leg.

Looking forward to the updates in the future.

My suggestion would be dnt bribe because they will confiscate it later.. lot of bollywood stars got their cars confiscated who didn't follow the correct procedure. They are getting smart.

Ask the guy below who drove this R34 in India

well im sure its gonna cost me a bomb, but the only thing thart worries me is that they have a rule of bringing in cars which are less than 10yrs old. And my skyline will be 11 yrs old... But im sure there is way to get around that...

And seeing the Team BHP thread i just came to know that there is a R34 GTR in India.. Not many people know that there... So when i go there for holidays this time i will find out all the possible info on importing it..

Will keep u guyz Updated!!

    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
