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:

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
