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
    for an extended 3 year warranty on the GTR up to 150,000km it is $1450 inc gst
    the warranty is identical to new car warranty and roadside assistance is included as well.

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..

    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home  
    • 1.05 you’ve gotta let it breath 
    • You have to continuously fill it to avoid dry running. Personally the transmissions I've serviced have never been bad enough to justify doing this because it is definitely a pretty complicated and somewhat risky procedure compared to simply draining the pan, measuring what came out, then refilling with the exact same amount.
