I haven't been in contact with them at all. Thought they were just going to ring me instead.... Well my experience is that I haven't heard anything back from them whatsoever. Am I supposed to contact them to help finish the process?

Anyone got their cars yet. I forgot to sign my aircon exemption so It had to be signed and sent back to my customs officer on wednesday - not sure how much that is gonna delay the release of my car. Also I find it strange that some brokers can get away without lodging an a/c exemption and still not have to degas.

No I haven't got my car yet. I'm waiting very impaciently for my Bill of Lading to be sent through. Without it I am unable to complete the paperwork for customs and unable to book for a customs inspection. Very VERY frustrating...

Got my car today, didn’t go though the degas shit everyone seems to have issues with.

I just asked my import broker to see what he can do, to get the car released without it been degassed or sign that air con exemption. All Good.

Nothing stolen.

It idles great that’s all I’ve done.

Ill try to get some dealer plates so I can run it out to Maddington to get complianced. Should be a good run on Japanese fuels and a loud exhaust, while it last.

Oh and boy oh boy, the car is beyond my expectations. A picture here is located here

I will try and get better ones when my digital camera decides to work better, the colours it is giving are rather dull and not what is really seen in real life.

I am fuming!  I havent got my bill of lading yet either!  everytime i speak to geoff he insists it will be here tomorrow! 10 days later and i still dont have it.

I'm really upset with this matter. I'm with holding my payment of the storage costs of Japan ($371) until this matter is sorted out. Hopefully will get me some leverage in the matter.

I used a custom broker too not an agent. Only paid 150$ inc gst in service fees, every other cost was cost price from customs, even got the invoice from customs address to myself c/o 'Continental Freight Services". Great for a tax right off. [i hope]

The way to go.

I have been having the same problem with Geoff, Tyler.

I finally picked up my car today, a Black Cefiro. I was pissed off it took them so long to ****en get the B/L. alot of bullshit if you ask me.

Just another way to get more cash out of me as far as I see it. Now my cefiro is going to cost me at least 2k more than it should have.

      There are black hose clamps as well if you care. Plazmaman for example sells some: https://plazmaman.com/product/black-hose-clamps-premium-quality-stainless-breeze/

      After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive

      Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.

      I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
