Just to let everyone know, if you are going to buy a Nissan Skyline or other up market car, the best option is Road & Road and Track Australia. I purchased my Nissan Skyline V36 SP 2006 Sedan of them, I only seen it in photos and I live on the Sunshine Coast QLD and they are in Sydney. Gavin walked me through his web site over the phone and BAM, WOW I purchased the car of him and man did I get what I wanted, NO I got even MORE, what a car, unbelievable value for money. They were the only ones that could show and guarantee the K's on the car. I tried others and when I mentioned about providing proof of K's NO ONE answered back, only GAvin from Road and Track in Sydney. I couldn't even dream the type of car I received from them and they sent it to me in QLD, I picked it up yesterday. I nearly wet my pants with excitement, amazing, the smell of leather just like a brand new can with 50000K's you would pick it, its just like a new car in and out, goes like a rocket, just like a 1100cc road bike, I think it would leave the bike behind. No wonder they don't allow P plate's drive the car. they would kill them selves on the fist corner. So if you want a car buy it from Gavin. NO MATTER where you live you will receive better than you expected. Just look at the types of cars he provides for people like us. A1+++++. Don't be a foll and buy else where, you are mad if you do. WHOOOOOOO HOOOOOOO Gavin thanks heaps. Your the MAN.

That said, I purchased my 370 from Gavin, and can vouch for the above...with the exception of near breaches of urine, and apparent twin turbo systems allowing you to defeat 1100cc bikes.

These cars are actually P Plate legal in QLD, as are 350z....

Tony, can you provide documentation on this? Does it stretch to Learners as well? Everywhere I've looked says they're QLD banned. Edited by Simink

TMR website.

The existing definition will continue to apply to cars manufactured before 1 January 2010. Under this definition a car is a high-powered vehicle if it has:

an engine with 8 or more cylinders

a turbocharged or supercharged engine that is not diesel powered

an engine with a power output of more than 210kW

a rotary engine with an engine capacity of more than 1146cc

an engine modification that must be approved under section 13 of the Transport Operations (Road Use Management—Vehicle Standards and Safety) Regulation 2010 (PDF, 831KB).

http://www.qld.gov.au/transport/licensing/driver-licensing/applying/provisional/restrictions/index.html

These cars are marketed as producing 206kw,hence legal.

Not doubting you, but everywhere I've looked they've been more around the 215-220kw+ mark.

I'll have to do some more digging on that! :yes:

To certify K's is with the full log book service history showing K's on each service from the 1st purchase date. Also when the car is registered for the 1st time it will show K's and each year when the renewal of rego it shows the K's every time. JEVIC is the company that certifies odometers and supplies a certificate of authenticity, when it's true and correct. http://www.jevic.com/services/vehicle-maritime-inspections/odometer-verification. This is what my car came with.

Also I would love to see what would really happen if you put the V36 SP againts any bike, I don't think the 600 would beat it to the 100k's p/h. It would be great to see.

LOL!!

Have you ever ridden a bike in your life?

Most 600cc Sportbikes will do 0-100 in about 4 secs. A twin turbo V36 would barely even do that with drag radials!

My old Suzuki SV 650 was about 50kW and it still did 0-100 in around 4 secs. A stock V36 does 5-5.5 secs......

You are correct, the 206kw figure is only for the VQ35DE in the V35 and pre 2005 350Z.

The V36 has the VQ35HR engine rated at 230KW and is therefore restricted for p-plate drivers.

You would need to go against a 600cc sports bike that is actually trying.. you wouldn't have a chance!

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.

      ECU sees many times the speed than speedo does (R34 swap)

      It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.

      I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
