Yep thats right people,

As with Richard (mmmgtir) I have received my import approval in the post today (6/12) which I sent to DOTARS by express post on the 29/11.

And here was I thinking at least 3 weeks with the rush.

Nick will be a bit coy, but the truth is he wants to become a wagonist and has bought a kick-ass tarago with 8 foot long rear wing and disco style interior. I imagine the GTR will be for sale soon.

I've got pics of where J-Spec holds their cars while waiting for them to reach their 15th birthday. I was told it was a high security area and only customs officials could enter. bolocks. Try a rice field with chooks running around

Bad news - we got another answer from the yard holding the car and they will not let anyone in there, not even the owner - it is a customs controlled area and security is tight.

The only thing we could do is move the car elsewhere for inspection and then back to the holding yard again, this might cost around 25,000 yen so it might not be worthwhile?

We will ask again later on when it's closer to the time but I don't fancy our chances now that we have been told this.

MRK25T: no offence mate, but a picture of a bunch of cars in a field proves nothing in terms of your claims. I've seen many similar pics on various sites and all it proves is that there are a lot of secondhand cars in fields in Japan (if it is in fact a picture of cars in Japan).

Disclaimer: I don't work for and am not associated with J-Spec. I've met Craig Moor and believe him to be honest and genuine.

      Nah its a server spammer thing  Although, now that I manually approve all the accounts I can probably loosen up some of the restrictions.

      Thread bump, again! Although, no bad news this time. Posting for the sake of possible root cause. Basically, I rebuilt it (mostly stock), installed Haltech + sensors, had it running fine on new ECU.  Still not really understanding why it cracked pistons last time. Got to tuners, and while checking timing, noticed +-10deg of timing scatter while revving. Changed CAS, and it was rock solid. While not definitive, can't imagine seeing 20+ psi with that amount of scatter would be a good thing. Also glad I found something.   Bit more of a run down; Carried out a stock rebuild, a set of stock pistons, out of a spare bottom end. Everything stock apart from head studs and oil restrictors. (so I can pretend I didn't let the Nissan out, ha.) Armed with the measuring gear and FSM, set about doing overhaul. Oil restrictors as per oil control thread for a RB25, stock oil pump, drifting. Head drain/vent from rear of head, to passenger side of sump above oil level. Two dash 10 vent lines from drivers side of sump (unused atm) Hi octane style cam cover breather kit Splash covers over last 2 cam caps. Both breather lines from cam covers to vented to atmosphere catch can, not plumbed back into sump (wanted to see what it was actually breathing). Got it run in (did about a 1000km) no to low boost scenario, As I had questions over old ECU setup. Installed haltech +sensors for flex Retune on E85 (finding CAS Issue along the way), made 300rwkw at 20psi, out of wastegate. Did a drift day the next day (yes, it was a big weekend!) and was checking catch can throughout the day, ZERO blowby. I mean nothing. Lines from cam covers are not even wet. Done a bunch of street driving, spirited and catch can is still dry. Early days I guess, but pretty happy so far. Also now run 10w60, up from the 10w40 that I used to run. Oil pressure is significantly better, especially when hot (as you would expect)
