Well I finally got my 97 gts-t on the road, I waited about 4 months for the import process, man the waiting sucked ass. The car is almost spotless inside and out, very good condition. I am one hundred percent happy with my purchase.

one annoying this is that I got pulled over and breathalysed (I was in my datsun sunny not the skyline) and blew .049 that was re calculated to .042 which would be fine If I wasn’t on my P plates (I am 23 have only recently got my licence and have been driving for 9 months) I am waiting for my court summons and will no doubt lose my licence for three months. soooooo gay :D do you have to redo your full licence like redo your L's and log books and all that? I bloody well hope not, it better just be the actual driving test. Another 2 years on P's is a total pain, they really go hard on this sort of thing.

On a good note my insurance is only $1600 which is like half of what some friends pay for a car worth less and with fewer cylinders. But who knows what it will go up to when i report my DD after I’ve been to court.

I havnt taken any pics of it here in WA yet but here is the pic of it in jap.

Well the point of the thread is to inform people that may be interested in importing that you can get good clean cars and you can get a good price on insurance.

And perhaps also to say don’t drink and drive. You will loose your freaken licence.

I dont actually lose my licence until i go to court so I get to drive around for a while.. :D

Is it bad for your car if you hit your rev limiter in first gear a few times?

that's pretty bloody good fane!

stix, congrats on your car. hope you enjoy it for three months......

You've gotta feel for the guy. He would have only had one or two drinks to have blown that. It's under 0.05 ffs.

when I'm old and on P's again, I'll remember to only have one lemonade wih a dash of gold.

i know the feeling, i was pulled over one night (on my p's) after i had been drinking earlier on in the night and had been on water for quite a while, i was very very sober!!! but the cops followed me down the road, turn their lights on and pulled me over. it was my first ever breathalyser and i kept stufing it up, the cop got really agro with me, i was doing exactly what he told me to do but i didn't work... then i decided i would do it my own way and it worked... i was like .003 under the p plater limit.... soooooo lucky!!!

    • I bought an engine from a friend of a friend many years ago, it was sold to me as a RB25det Neo.    recently I started pulling it apart and noticed that the intake manifold was pretty different from others that I had seen on RB engines so did a bit of research and found that it was a non turbo manifold. So I’m sceptical now that it is a NEO DET and just thinking it’s a NEO DE (it does have a turbo strapped to it currently).    can you identify the engine model from the numbers on the block?
    • Yeah you can. Cable tie the gauge to a windscreen wiper, or run it into the car and hold it with one hand, or have the neighbour's kid run alongside and tell you what it says.
    • I've never understood why this bothers people. Surely you'd be looking at a T3 flanged Garrett style thing, rather than a TD? You're unlikely to push a +T hard enough to need that much fuel. If you're not starting with most of the things you need to do that (ie, the bloody ECU!), you're better off just going Haltech/Link. You wil hate life a lot less. No. Just no. Just turbo it as is.
    • Have you noticed if the squeak changes with temperature or after driving in the rain?
    • Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks
