  • 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.
    please do not hesitate to give me a call if you have any queries.

I highly doubt this,would be great if true,i was told a two year warranty would be around $3000-$4000 when it comes out,which sounds about right for these cars,i think i paid $1100 for two years on my ve ss ute.

Hay guys, just checking on the thread. Sent off an email about extended warranty to north side Nissan. This was there reply.

“David we are just waiting for the final draft to be signed off by the underwriters being Nissan and Allianz. As soon as we have this we will contact you to organise this with you.”

Cheers mate any ideas of cost?

“Unfortunately I think that is the part they are trying to decide.”

Also my instrument cluster back lights are not working and flickering. Anyone ell’s have this problem? I hope this is covered by the normal used car warranty they give to Nissans used cars. I’m sure that cluster is not cheap.

There was a recall and 6 year replacement guarantee for the instrument cluster in the US. Check out the nagtroc forums for the details on this, and see if it also applies to Australia

Interesting news on the underwriters. I have also heard that Allianz do the underwriting of the initial 3 year wty, so its good that they are involved in the extended one.

I'd say you're looking at 4K a year min. for extended warranty.

$4k a year to warranty parts and labour, and yet for me $900 a year to warrantee the entire car with Suncorp in the case I have an accident?? That seriously doesnt make sense mate!

Your right it doesn't make any sense, except for the fact that in the owners manual I believe there's a section for transmission replacements and we are talking about Nissan here! That's the main reason why I believe the additional warranty will be expensive. Maybe 4K for an additonal 2 to 3 years would be fair, I guess we'll just have to wait and see. Anyway insurance companies will insure just about anything these days. Maybe worthwhile seeing if you can get insurance for a transmission replacement only if needed. Basically you're insuring for a 25K failure. As for your $900 a year policy with Suncorp here's what you do. If/when your transmission fails say it caused the car to veer of the road and you hit a gutter damaging one of your wheels. So when you claim for your damaged wheel you can say replace my 25K transmission as well! Good luck with that! :no:

Hahaha, indeed, running into a gutter at the same time I can't select 1st, 3rd or 5th gear is a good idea lol.

To be honest, the only parts I want covered are the big ticket items like Bell housing, Dash Cluster and Transmission. The sum of all these parts replaced would be about $35k. While I don't plan to mod my GTR, but these seem to be the main ones that fail on stock cars.

Coincidently, Mark from Moorooka called today and mentioned that the email that was received by a member of this forum was in error and there is no extended warranty currently available.

Not that I really care at this stage as I still have 2.5 years left, but hopefully Davee is right and Nissan really are working towards an extended warranty for the GTR.

How much, on average is a 20,000km service on a 35 GTR

I was shown the costs of the big services. 30,000kms is $1395, and the 50,000kms is $1495. The others are around $800 cheaper than this - unless you need brakes or tyres :P

Out of interest I had the first 2000kms mandatory, and 6 month service done in one hit, and this came to $385 :)

i got my 09 gtr 6-7 months ago and had a warranty included with the deal but only got it the other week due to the back and forth with allianz and nissan,not sure what happened exactly but my dealer ended up giving me a 3 yr national warranty.

I was told by the dealer the allianz product was not going to cover everything and there was an excess to pay on claims,just before i picked up the paper work i googled national warranties and there was alot of bad press about them,i also went on the web site for them,

from memory i think they also had an excess too and very limited amount value wise on each claim.

But when i looked through the warranty booklet i received there was no mention of an excess and there is 3 tiers of value to claim up to, plan a)$3000 plan b)$7000 plan c)up to the market value of vehicle at time of the claim.Also you can pick 1.2 or 3 yrs coverage.

They gave me 3yrs on plan C,so seems good on paper,but we will have to see when it comes time to use it i suppose.

      7 Speed Auto transmission fluid change (Skyline, Q50, Q60, Fuga, Q70, A62 Titan and probably heaps of others including Navara...)

      By Duncan · Posted

      I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.

      our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)

      R33 persistent issues. P/steering and lag/misfire

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.

      By MissMintyR33 · Posted

      Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan.
