There are a couple over east but you are looking at 2K plus the work plus tyres.

You have left it too late unless you are going to wait for the 15 year old rule and would have to buy b4 about May cos after that, you will be paying more for a 89 than what a 92 is worth now , along with the extra mileage etc that comes with it.

Interesting to see how many 60,000 km 89's magically appear next year:lol:

Enlightem me please 15 yr rule? Dumb question i know but hey you got to ask to find out

Govt allows cars to come in that are over 15 yrs old without having to got thru the compliance process.

Still have to make it roadworty but nowhere near as expensive and any car , and some trucks etc can come in.

ie. currently any 1988 built or earlier car is allowed in ( even LHD )

For example you can bring in NOW 1988 GQ patrols out of Japan as long as the dereg and chassis no. concurs that it was built in 1988.

Which is why the price of 1988 safaris has jumped to about 20% more than a 1989 /1990 of equivalent spec.

The 89 GTR will do the same shortly.

Not quite true Kym , some people just aren't as greedy as others.

I do actually have a very nice stock gunmetal grey one that is complied, is getting a new clutch friday and as far as I can see , is undamaged . Will be for sale under 30K or $32K with some special plates to go with it.

I half stand corrected then. Most people are greedy and moreso are the dealers.

And $2k for some "special" SKYLINE plates???.... quite the package eh?

Nah, if you don't have to compliy the cars there is $2000 saved already, plus no warranties, another $1000, so I expect that these cars will be a fair bit cheaper, but they will be 15years old, so don't believe the 60K on the clock.

See'ya:burnout:

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
