Just purchased demo MY11 Black on black 3000km in VIC for $139,888 drive away. I've got some good connections so pm me if you want a new or demo one around that price. looking forward to meeting you all. Just drove 1000km in 2 days and have a sore neck :\

For that price I should be reconsidering my search for a used '09 or '10 ...

140K on road for a MY11 is a very good price! Which dealer was it? It makes you wonder how much margin dealers have to work with on these cars and hense what Nissan Aust. is paying for them from the parent company. I beIieve dealers usually get a rebate from the manufacturer (and therefore can discount heavily) if they haven't sold a current model on their floor if a new one is about to arrive. If demo 11's are going for 140K on road then I think 90 to 95k is a more realistic price for an 09 and the low 100k's for a 10. Obviously it's always dependant on klm's and condtion.

how come so cheap for that one? I know is says; AS NEW SUPERSEDED JDM MODEL but didnt think the JDM ones could be imported parallel to aus delivered?

that's definitely not a 2011 BUILT car

from what i understand of the grey imports, that must have gotten registered in Aus before Nissan Aus started selling them

so that'd make it most likely a 2008 or early 2009 build car that was just parked and not driven much???? ....or could be he lived in Japan and brought it back ???

either way i wouldn't buy a JDM, the japanese buttons and characters on the screen would drive me crazy

^^ i thought it wasnt A 11 model as differant front spoiler etc.

dont worry im not in the market for one as yet. maybe nxt 6-12 months if my house gets to a stage i can sell it for the profit im after (come on roxby open cut)

i like that one with the ZELE kit on, but have a soft spot for the red one so will probably try and find a 2010 model when the time comes.

definitely not a 2011build, it has the same body as the 08/09/10

that particular car is the base jdm model with the grey roof lining and all black seats.... coincidentally what Nissan aus now import for 2011 to minimize the price increases

a few of us downunder have the zele parts now, best looking exterior add-ons for the GTR imo.

Reminds me of my old V35. I remember japanese messages used to pop up on the display and i'd have to stumble through all the buttons trying to clear them.

    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
    • I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.
    • Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
