Congratulations to...

Aussie_Delivered_R32_GTR for its selection as the R32 GTR ADM representative at the GTR FESTIVAL in May.

Thanks Terry,

I'm really looking forward to this event.

Ironically the car hasn't been out since the 25th Anniversary in August 2014!

Fresh petrol won't hurt.

Bob.

That's great information - Thank You. I was a little suspicions as I also identified that the NSW registration history did not match their advertised story of the vehicle history. They may have an explanation for this though. But I am now better informed of the facts.

How did you know the exact month and colour? Is there a VIN code table that has a break down of the VIN layout and relevant codes so that they can be fully interpreted? I have tried to search to find it and haven't had much luck as there are too many references to VIN. :)

Thanks again

You need to find out more about how the car was imported; because nissan Oz was selling GTRs in 91/92 you can't import them yourself. About the only valid way for that car to be registered is if it was a Personal Import. Check the VIN with DOTARS to find out how it was complied.

I imported a 91 but it is only for race/rally use and can't be fully registered

Under the new rules you can't import them, but there are plenty of imports built around that time that are completely legal

link to proof? the rules have always been that low volume import is not possible when the manufacturer imports them. they can only come in:

Full homologation. Only nissan oz ever had this and only for 91/92 models.

1989 rule - was 15 year old until it was changed to stop all the post 1989 jap goodies coming in. Will become a 30 year old rule in 2019.

Personal import - if you can prove you owned it for 2 years (used to be 1) overseas

SEVS/RAWS etc if the manufacturer didn't import it at that time. So 89, 90, 93, 94 models are OK. 4 cars came in before 91 through scuderia veloce, the rest came in post 93.

Race/Rally - can't be registered except restricted/rally rego

Parts - has to be cut in half at a minimum.

Haha... And I think it'll be good to have "SAU" stickers on don't you (for MotiveDVD)?

we are talking about information that is now over 10 years old, but under the old system (green metal compliance plates) the rule stated the r32 skyline was eligible, which meant all variants and year models were eligible, just like the 300zx all turbo models were eligible

Under the new system that is not the case, you can only bring in year models that Australia did not sell new

Not exactly...........

The restricted R32's are only if manufactured between July 1 1991 and June 30 1992.

Consequently you could/can import them outside of these dates.

Cheers......... Bob.

under the new rule that is correct, under the old rule it was open slather

I finally found someone willing to lend me an ADM rear number plate infill panel.

Im already looking at getting some reproduced.

Would anyone be interested?

yuppp

Yes please

As soon as I firm up the prices and arrangements, ill let you guys know what is going on :)

The originals are made out of a thick rubbery kind of material, but the reproductions will be made from fiberglass, however carbon may be an option too.

I just put up an "EOI" in the group buy section for these number plate panel infill copies:

    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.
