So your saying tht 09 ADM R35s can be launched consistantly one after another with no gearbox issues?

Personally I don't know as I have never done it consistantly. I did also say a "few" launch controls. I will only comment on something that I know about not what I have heard around the traps. Although I don't see people whinging on here that they have blown their ADM gearbox while using launch control or blown them at all.

I agree, you only hear about the horror stories with the USDM's, where their 2009 (MY08 build) cars blew loads of trannies (refer NAGTROC forum) - and most of these after a COBB or Ecutek tune + big mods. Dodson has them all covered with uprated parts anyways.

IMO, same applies to the USDM 2010 (MY09), 2011 (MY10) and 2012 (MY11). Most are getting upgraded trannies at the same time as big mods.

I can't say I've ever heard of any ADM's going KAPOOW. I'm still not modding mine just in case though :P

I found this which would refer to 2007 built GTR's

"Early vin JDM cars had a common fault with oil pump in the transmission failing causing the box to get no oil, hence failure"

Theres this, and the circlips in the tranny have also known to fail - in fact this remains a common problem in even the 2012's

It's quite simple really. If you price cars, boats, houses etc.. at what the market is wiling to pay, they sell. Smart people know this and conclude their business quickly thereby freeing up cash to move on to their next venture and minimising losses. Other people are just dreamers and end up losing more money as they leave their car over priced and unsold for months as it continues to depreciate before their very eyes!

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
