spotted (with binoculars) .... my new R34 sitting at the docks in customs/quarantine at North Haven :( - it arrived 7:30pm Saturday night - just 20 days after I paid for it, believe it or not!

your binoculars take picture?

seriously though that is damn fast shipment. btw do all imports sit at north haven? im just curious

No, mine is silver. The Viva Garage car has a 400R front bar, a different bonnet, standard mirrors and aftermarket front guards. Plus 100 RWKW worth of decals.

How much for the R34? Are you selling your S15?

I'm looking at importing / buying an R34 GTR in the not too distant future...

Saw a wild R34 GTR on Friday night about 8:15pm heading north on South Road just before the Sturt Rd intersection. Was white with Gt rear wing, looked like a carbonfibre bootlid, decals etc. Sounded brilliant.

Saw a blue R33 at the Woodcroft shopping centre carpark last Thursday. Had a great bodykit but I didn't recognise which type. Owner was sitting in the car so I didn't check it out fully.

Deluxe - yeah I knew it was there (had an arrival notice, and have been tracking the ship all the way from Japan.) We knew it had to be there somewhere, but the odds of finding it were quite low. We cruised and walked around the perimeter of the holding yards and finally found it.

Nozila - nah, that was taken with my did camera - it has quite good zoom. If a car comes directly into Adelaide, then it sits in North Haven holding yards until it clears quarantine/customs.

P1E - the R34 is setting me back around $22,500 landed ad on-road. Bloody cheap! I have no idea why this vehicle was so cheap, when normally they are up to $10k more - but as long as it's good when I get it, then I'll be stoked! Shanna from ns.com recently bought her R34 4 door here for around $35k (with some mods).

Yep I am selling the S15, will put an ad up everywhere very shortly! Asking $37K (has well over $20K of mods), which I think is a bargain.

nah it's a Turbo 4 door auto - steering wheel tiptronic - and includes mags, suspension, stereo and exhaust. Yep, have an auction sheet here (click), and there are pics of the car on my website www.andrewn.da.ru

I still love my S15 - it is just time for a change :rofl:

Spotted a silver r33 coming out of caltex main north rd. Waved to the guy but didnt think he saw me - its was too dark and my windows were fogged up. Had fairly nice kit from what i could see, bn? rear with a viva sticker on back window. Was that you P1E, i was in the white line with unpainted stealth spoiler. Anyways, nice ride who ever it was. Had the meaniest exhaust note too and ive heard alot of exhaust notes.

My car's locked away out of the rain and cold

I know of three gunmetal R33s with the BN sides and rear, plus the white Viva Garage car.

smart thinking...as it was a horrible afternoon driving in the rain. Those bn rears looks rather nice.

I have had enough of modifying cars for the foreseeable future, but you never know, hopefully my next car will either be an R34GTR or a V35 - you never know what might happen with one of those!

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
