got my car today (also arrived at brisbane on the same boat as the car above ;) Neil, I didn't realise it was you who bought that car... such a nice car... tuff tuff tuff). Nothing stolen, nothing broken. The JDM tyte cup holder in my car had unfortunately wrenched my centre vent out, but you get that.

I received my 15 year import on Wednesday. It isn't a Nissan, however, it is quite rare. It has low k's and is 99.9% stock down to the OEM muffler. Some pics of it straight off the docks and onto a hoist:

I got my GTR last week. Very keen to take it for a drive but the brakes need a bleed first.

WEHEY! IT'S THE CARBON BEAST!!

I wondered if this thing was going to end up in Australia. So close to buying it but for the hassle of getting it complied with carbon doors. Hope you can find the "right" engineer.

Those doors must be worth a mint. Do the latches, hinges and windows operate ok?

You must be doing side flips being unable to go for a fang in it, but it's the weekend now so get under there and get crappy brake fluid everywhere.

If there's a weighbridge anywhere nearby I'd love to know how much bulk it saves.

lol neil my brakes don't work either... I'm gonna start bleeding the brakes in a few hours. Did your car come plastered with big signs that said "warning footbrake not working" etc?

I know it is not fresh FROM japan but it will be soon, and i will post the pics up then.

Oh and yes if anyone has spotted there is one modification, there is a sticker on the right side rear bumper!

WElcome to the 4dr club mate, I love the white sedans! good price you paid too :(

I know it's not a nissan, I would have LOVED a GTR but couldn't afford decent 34 :wave: So evo it is.

Here's my pictures I recently got... gets shipped on the 13th and hopefully arrives on the 27th :P

Any idea how long it takes from arrival on the docks to being ready to pick up? (steam cleaning etc)

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • 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.
