I highly doubt those selling their 09s for 100k are doing so because the used market is privy to a few box failures

The reality is, what has driven down resale is chiefly the market, cost of funds when leasing a used car, and most importantly the fact 70k of that new car price tag are taxes the dealer doesn't have to pay when buying new stock - why would a dealer offer you 120k for your 09 on trade in when a brand new car from nissan aus costs less than that

  • Thought you might be interested in this extended warranty quote. FULL warranty seems to be on offer at a very reasonable price. Too good to be true???

  • Hi David .
    Terry is on holidays for two weeks but I can give you the prices,
    for an extended 3 year warranty on the GTR up to 100,000km it is $1085 inc gst

Bought the car from interstate. Can i just go to a nissan dealer in WA and see them about it?

Of course mate. I bought my 2010 from WA, shipped to Brisbane, QLD :P

GT-R service centres are universal Aus wide, thats why there are so few of them.

So dropped the GTR off over @ Moorooka this morning and had a chat with the service manager there. He indicated they do not provide extended warranties, however he was interested to find out the details of how Rockingham Nissan can offer it.

Not that I'm overly worried, they also don't seem to be very mod friendly @ Moorooka either so installing Willall parts and maintaining warranty is NEG. Maybe other dealers will take the risk on mods, but its clear Moorooka will not.

"they also don't seem to be very mod friendly @ Moorooka either so installing Willall parts and maintaining warranty is NEG. Maybe other dealers will take the risk on mods, but its clear Moorooka will not."

The dealer does not "take the risk", as soon as you identify a possible warrantable item, the first thing that the dealer does is send off the warranty request to Nissan Australia.

Nissan Australia says yea or nay to your warranty claim, not the dealer.

I had a component eventually replaced under warranty (which took over 5 months) and the entire time the dealer made it very clear that the issue was not in their hands, but up to Nissan Austarlia to decide if they were going to approve it or not.

Maybe there is a $ limit up to which the dealer can approve them selves, but i doubt that any drive line items affected by mods fall into this category.

Unsurprisingly I am now having difficulty getting Rockingham Nissan to honour the email. Something about new underwriters blah, blah.....

I'll keep you posted.

I'm not surprised. Mark (service manager @ Moorooka) mentioned that they use Allianz for underwriting their warranties, and he said had no idea how Rockingham were able to provide said warranty extensions... I gave him a copy of the email in this thread when I picked up my GTR from service. He said he would have a chat with the Rockingham peoples to find out more because he would love to do it if they could.. That was 4.20pm this arvo..

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
