Did I interpret this article correctly?

Nissan Australia will be selling Nismo upgraded models here like HSV/FPV, AMG, Ralliart, etc?

And Nismo parts will be available for us to buy locally?

That should be make them cheaper yes?

we think the scope for Nismo to start engineering whole vehicles is right," says Sproule.

For the person in charge, he should really know more about history. Nismo only recently has turned into the soft image by selling exhaust tips and sticker sets for 4WD's etc into Usa IMO

Before he showed up, Nismo certainly engineered their own cars;

For R35s you mean... I mean what other cars other than a 370Z do they sell here that would actually make upgrades viable...

A "Nismo Edition" Pathfinder? :rolleyes:

This!

And the article makes it out like Nismo is a new thing, yet it is been out longer then HSV / FPV.

I wouldnt be surprised if there talking about the new altima/maxima that just got released in the US and will be released and racing in the tourers here next year with the 5.6ltr quad cam V8

$283 for a CAI is not bad, i was expection at least $400+ from NISMO.

Wait till the local dealers get their hands on this line of stuff. They'll surely meet your expectations with pricing, the fucking theives.

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
