Yeah my mate saw that GTR at wahroonga shell as well. He said he spoke to the guy who had his wife in the car. Apparently he picked it up yesterday. And my friend reckons it looks hell pornographic in person.

woahhh um i must be missing something... how are these R35 GTR's in AUS already? and how can they be road registered?

PS: i want to upgrade :(

Mass, none of them are road registered, they have all been imported for Race/Rally use only.

hahaha -MONA- dont tempt me.....

ill stick to the sex machine R34.....

also if the new gtr came in the good old manual i prob wud consider it down the track... meh who wants boring old paddle shift????

PS: thanks for the clarification about rally use only... thats wat i thought, just seen a fair few on the road and started thinking, how the heck is that ppssible!!!

even for rally use they will take at least 3 months to get thru the rego hoops, in NSW it involves the CAMS state manager writing a letter to the GM of the RTA. How quaint

I've met the owner of that R35 before.

He has another two coming in (and a TT 350GT V35). "Word" has it that this one (photo'd at shell) is going to be used for some emissions testing.

A few of us at work are stumped on how he says he is going to do it though...we'll just have to wait and see. He isnt short of a quid either!

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
