Engineered Or Blue Slip Central Coast

Regarding engineering you'll have issues with the following:

  • Vented Bonnet (especially if fibreglass and not ADR approved.)
  • Carbon Fibre Mirrors (Same deal, if not ADR approved)
  • Race Seat (Again, issues if not ADR approved)
  • Gauges (depending on placement)

These are particularly difficult due to the costs involved for the tests if they are not ADR as you'll have to foot the bill proving these meet the ADR requirements, whether they pass or fail.

ECU, turbo, etc is fine if you pass an IM240 test.

Oil cooler should be fine.

BOV is fine if it doesn't vent to atmosphere.

Front Facing Plenum I would have no idea on (this might come under IM240 and review of piping placement)

Airbox - as long as it is covered. Can be a sticking point as some may say it needs to be covered when the bonnet is open, others is fine if it's enclosed with bonnet closed.

I am not an engineer but I have done a lot of research into RMS Engineering, the ADRs and talks with engineers on testing requirements, process, etc.

Hope the info helps.

    • I honestly wouldn’t bother with this. They don’t hold up under any serious strain. Get the Blackline (Chinese fake Quaife) if anything, as it’s reported to perform pretty well. 
    • For future reference, I believe all that Amayama does is act as a middleman between you and Nissan. Go to your local dealership, ask nicely for a parts account (I get 15% off with mine) and you'll get better pricing. Cheers, 
    • Hi guys, I have a 2005 V35 skyline with the vq35de.  It is a drift car and has been stripped, its now running a standalone ECU and a body harness. Dash everything has been changed to a digital dash controlled by ecu.  The vq35de has been great, very reliable but wanting more HP atm the 35de is making 228rwhp. I'd like to be making about 350rwhp. From my research it looks like a vq25det lightly modified could be a good engine to swap in. I understand the CD trans will bolt up right to the vq25det with a 35de sump used.  My only issue is a wiring harness/ecu to control the vq25det, from what i've found the ecu is a lot different to the vq35de so my plugin for the 35de will not work. Is there any potential to use the vq35de wiring harness and modify as necessary to retain the plugin ecu?  Keen to hear what you guys think, or am I best off to chuck on a cheap turbo kit on the 35de and see how long it lasts.   
    • Oh sorry Justin! I was racking my brain trying to remember names, not sure why I associated “Adam” with 7tune! I’m good, been away from Skylines for over a decade, got family and kids now. Just getting back into owning a 32 but it’s a whole different world now… tax is higher and tech is better.
    • Who's Adam? Hehe 😁All good mate, it's Justin. Been good! And you? The HCR32 is looking sweet by the way! Love the very neat Nav install.  I would love to get one but I'm at a crossroads right now and can't commit to another car.
