The DBA R35? Which dealer?

Northside in Perth.

Awesome - considering they went up by 2K in Japan and AUD is strong as this is a great news. When is your delivery?

Late February or early March.

Hopefully the early order will turn out to be beneficial but even if it doesn't, I think $184 is a fair price for the DBA.

I have ordered one at $184k.

But is the price "guaranteed"? All sales contract for new vehicles have the clause that if there is a price rise the dealer has the right to pass it on and you also have the right to cancel the contract. This appears to be the current model price so perhaps this is all you've been offered in the absence of news on the new price?

$187000 for March delivery, Quoted from a Sydney Dealer. 09, 10 owners are shafted!

184K in WA

187K in NSW.

hmmm, I reckon you could do better in NSW with some more robust negotiations, WA is the most expensive state when it comes to new car prices, so 184vs187 makes no sense.

5K price increase, when Japan had a 2K increase and our dollar is stronger, is still bit tight, shame on you Nissan Aust :thumbsup:..........but its the bang-for-buck regardless.

"our dollar is stronger to the green back not the yen..."

Maybe, but even if you reckon it stayed the same, JPY vs AUD, where does the extra 3K come. I know 3K is not much, but seriously there are no excuses for the increase. Australians customers always get shafted and that's a fact, GT-R also didn't go down when the tariff got reduced either.

$184.5k in Sydney yesterday

$1500 extra for grey or blue.

$3000 extra for special silver, that has 10 extra coats on it.

Seems good value to me. Dealer is taking orders for April now.

Very reasonable pricing - any news on the optional Recaro seats and their cost, or will ADM's all come with Recaro's as standard fit?

    • Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. Replace the turbos. Probably completely separate issues.
    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
