That is exactly what i saw...

Just checking; did it have dealer plates on it? And black in colour? There are a few in Australia, but as personal imports, so they can't/haven't been complied to be legally driven on our roads... BUT there is one in Canberra that has been driven about with said dealer plates...So, not that I really doubted you; it may've come across that way, but the thing shouldn't have been driven about...just yet....

I didn't see a plate on the front, and didn't notice if there was a plate on the back. So dealer plates are quite possible.

If you check the R35 section of the forum there is someone else who claims there is one in Canberra.

Looks like the GTR in Canberra was driven down from Sydney (lucky bastard) fairly recently. Someone else spotted it while driving from Syd to Canberra:

If anyone knows Jerry or the guys at J-Racing well, try and get them to bring the car to Shannons Wheels this March :banana: We will pretty much win that entire event if the R35 makes an appearance.

yes it is. my suspension is the same as his 33. when i asked Chris at Inline what should i do suspension wise, he said to go and look under Bob's 33, so i did. "nice.." i said. "thats what i'll do to your car.." said chris. "awesome.." said me... :worship:

Yep; the grey 35R is definately Bob's. And Jerry tells me he doesn't have one, which is good enough for me. Whilst the car isn't complianced, it seems a mere matter of time, tests and red tape before Bob gets to drive it on the roads. The question I need to ask him is what he's done with his daily driver 34. Would be a nice garage: 33,34 & 35 model GT-R's!

Spotted today: a black 32 GTS-T, nice wheels, well fitted FMIC, driving into Fyshwick as I was passing through. Saw the driver looking, so I waved, but it mighta looked a bit weird...getting a wave from a gold Forester! I long to be more recognisable behind the wheel of a certain white 32.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
