Shameless self-promotion, but this is about as good as it gets for a V36 SP sedan...

I can even get you the export certificate and auction sheet to verify the kms :)

Lol dude he is an importer that sends anywhere in Australia. The current car listed is in Japan but would be delivered to you. Kristian has a contacts with compliance shops in Sydney among other places.

No pressure and you don't have to, just saying if you have the patience and will, I would import. Even if you don't consider Iron Chef.

FYI I am in Brisbane and got Kristian to Import for me.

Kristian I can't take money off you as you would pay me in Euro's... limited to be spent in Greece.... :whistling:

Crap.. that LInk from chef is for SP model..

so they don't really hold their value considering Nissan will be selling the same thing for a LOT more than 25K come end of the year.

I dont think Infiniti will be selling the V36, only the M version.

I have a 4 dr. Bought it from IMG in Lidcombe. Was in near new condition. Doesn't seem too many 3.7L with 7spd around??

^^^ The Skyline and the Infiniti G are the same car. The Infiniti M is the Fuga.

There are very few 3.7 litre sedans around, last I checked there was only one workshop in Australia doing them, and they weren't selling compliance jobs to brokers.

Kushil, we just happened to pick this one up super cheap - normally this sort of car would be $26K-ish.

Skyline168, I have customers all over Oz and all over the world - if you bought it, it would come directly to you, not via Adelaide.

Being a 350GT sedan would also be a big factor in the low price. The sedans just don't hold their value as well as the coupé's. 08 coupé's seem to go for the same price as 2010 sedans (give or take). The good thing being that you probably wouldn't expect them to be nose diving in price any time soon. Most of the price drop would have already occurred.

Either way, $23,000 for the quality of that car is a good deal. You could go out and buy one of the 150+ 2007 Commodores on carsales, for the same money, but it would have double or triple the km on it and you would stand out like hay in a hay stack!

Didn't you just say that you looked at ones locally and they were shonky? Yet you're not prepared to consider a genuine low-km example with auction sheet and export certificate from Japan because you can't see it?

The reason it's cheap is because it's in Japan! A dealer here is going to add their margin and sell it for $30K, that's how it works.

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

      Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

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

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
