Hi all, FYI, the 2010MY GT-R for Australia has just been announced by Nissan. There is a $3,000 price increase however there are a few spec changes.

Now you get Sat Nav, bluetooth connection, ipod/USb connection,data logger function, automatic headlights and speed sensing front wipers as standard. Price is now $158,800 for the 'base' model and $162,800 for the Premium. Metallic paint is now $1,495 (previously $1,750).

So it seems they have added a reasonable bit of spec for a smallish price increase, what i don't know is whether this is just a local model change with some more spec or the next GLOBAL model year change or series update that will see mechanical refinements and upgrades.

New sat nav unit is a big upgrade from the current model MFD.

This is indeed the global model change which includes minor suspension and bushing tweaks, SpecV rear diffuser, wheel centre cap changes, more clear coat on front and rear bumpers as well.

The compact flash slot on the previous models is now gone and is replaced by a USB slot as you mentioned. Interestingly, the MFD can boot from and access this USB slot for software installation. Should open up the possibility of development of third party apps maybe. Nismo's MFD upgrade uses this tech to install itself in the GT-R after all. Hopefully apps don't need to be digitally signed by Nissan......

There's a whole computer in that MFD, if you can access it, there's a command line interpreter, POSIX like OS, 3G modem capabilities, etc. Would be very interesting to see if anyone puts some effort in to develop at the very least a data logging system ala Nismo but on the cheap / free for the community.

I'd do it but i dont have a GTR to test out my stuff... :)

Dealers have to make money aswell, and the % profit is pretty low compared to other dealers.

Damelian makes anywhere up to $50k profit on a $170k Ferrari...

$20k on a merc selling at $130k

they still did not put cameras on them. doesnt matter - already done a 2010 one. few things have changed internally but there is one running around with a set of cameras front and rear on it.

drop me a line if you are afraid of the low hanging nose.

They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.

      If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.

      If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.

      MAJOR FUEL ISSUES 25det neo r32

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
