Not sure of the rules but the NSX started in 1991 so can they bring them in if they are over 15years old?

Old 15 year rule is goneski. All Pre-89 vehicle are eligable for import, post-89 has to be on the SEVS/RAW list or whatever the fcuk it's called.

I'd be curious to know how.

Sorry about the late reply Iron Chef.

I purchased 2 R35 GTR's back in 2010 when they were close to new and had to find each one which I purchased a few months apart with less than 400kms

as we could comply them. They were both Ex-Demo's and purchased from Nissan Dealers and had to verify that with RAWS with full documentation.

1 had less than 100kms and the other had 350kms. There is only 1 compliancer who could do that and I am not sure if he has done anymore recently.

Also I did have the first one I bought in for sale about 4-5 months ago as I bought it back as I was going to keep it but decided not to as I wasn't driving it.

Consignment - Xtreme Motorsports is into selling several cars on consignment.

Not really. We own everything here as consignment cars are usually a headache.

We did try that a while ago on a selected few and had headaches and decided no longer.

We know would rather purchase the car and sell it or wholesale it to another dealer.

I dont know whether its for sale or not but there is an NSX in the showroom of a Honda dealership in Sutherland. A silver one up on the second level, sitting in the window for all to see.

Just for shits and giggles, i just rang them lol. The sales rep had some vague details.

This is what i got:

IT IS FOR SALE AND REGISTERED!!!!

Something like a 1993 model

last offer for it was $180,000 but was refused as it is worth much more (apparently he says)

has only 26kms on the clock (not 26,000)

is some sort of special edition (possibly the Zanardi Special Edition, or the NSX-R GT Special Edition)

apparently it is the car that lead one of the Indy races a few years ago.

Wow.. 26km on the clock that's unreal. Worth a fortune.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.

      My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.

      There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
