Hi Guys,

In the market for an R35 and just wanted to know if you can get certified used Nissan GTR's from Nissan dealers and what they can do in regards to finance? I remember someone telling me from this forum that 2-3% is likely but not sure if that is correct or not

love to hear your thoughts

Thanks

2-3%, not a chance. Even if you found that as a headline rate comp rate would end up much higher. Assuming its only a couple years old, I could get you around the 7% mark which is as good as you'll get anywhere.

Having recently done finance and shopping around, best I found was just under 9% after going through half a dozen places. It was more about termination, transfer and similar clauses more so than the rate as you can cop cheaper rates but a higher termination and so on... Which can change things to end up in-front (or behind).

Certified means they looked over it, as normal, and there is an implied warranty which isn't an outright guarantee it will apply (read that fine print). So a good way to go, but at a premium of course. You can just pick up a 2nd hand one still in warranty also. You wouldn't get an older one anyway thats out of the factory warranty, given the gearbox issue in them, especially if the oil has been changed to something other than what it should be as that seems to be a common factor.

Second hand isn't a problem with finance, you can as long as the car is no older than 8 yrs if memory serves correct. (someone here will know the exact ruling)

Each lender has their own policy on age of car, and seven years is pretty common for max age.

A Consumer full doc motor vehicle loan of $115,000 over five years on a five year old car you should be able to get low 7 percent.

when shopping for finance the lowest rate i managed to obtain was 5.2-5.5% and that was the best rate you could get

try 360 finance they were good, also try stratton they have given low finance in the past as well (the previous owner of my car was on 5.2%)

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
