  1. Nope not that one i nearly inspected that too, but got to the - too good to be true catagory also the seller used too much "YES BRO and NO BRO" when asking about options and stuff on the car
  2. in the same seat i am importing as i want a Black / Blue GTR V-Spec, going through J-SPEC imports at the moment there are some SILVER V-SPEC (inspected one in SYD) and the seller is willing to go down as much as 37K!!!, but Silver one just dont look as mean as Black, Blue (Yes i know Z-TUNE silver is mean !!!) they look too similer to GTT in my PERSONAL opinion Whites one are cheap too and sellers willing to reduced considerably than advertised "if your serious" White V-Spec can be had for around "41- 44" bloody good one with MOds I decided to import as i could not find Black / Blue V-Spec for my budget that is good "there is WA plated one in QLD, which is SH*T" and they still hold there value reasonable well in Australia and even in Jap Land No point buying Non V-Spec stock one as you need to spend a bit to 1. Lower it (stock one ride way to high) 2. Put in the Front Lip and back diffuser (gives GTR LOOK) + nice wheels 3. Power FC, Cams, etc.. etc (stock one are not very fast IMO, just drive and you will see what i mean) And you will get caught out when it comes to selling as it not a V-SPEC V-Spec II and NUr, just way too over my budget so never considered them Keep in mind WHITE R34 GTR's, when done well actually looks bloody nice "some nice one in SAU WA section i think" with Carbon Side skirts and Pod and Tommy diffuser, which are not too expensive for a good COPY version - Carbon on Fiber glass also need money for Full flued flush and 100K service "regardless of actually KM on the Dash" as most have Nismo 320 dash fitted and you have no clue how much actual KM My 2C
  3. I remember a Guy NSW SAU got a quote from reputable Sydney workshop for HKS Super charger KIT, Drive in Drive Out job for something like 7K [i think was the figure] apparently the 350Z twin turbo kit can overheat the 350GT for some reason and needs extensive modification to fit was the reason he went super charge
  4. it not being in Qld for that long and still got the WA Plates with the car so wanted to know if the previous owner was SAU'r by any chance
  5. going to look at this car, it currently in QLD for Sale Any one know this car... any information you can tell me about the history will be good
  6. Thanks mate i got a PM saying GT AUto Garage does tune it in Brissy so Mods, can delete this tread i did search, but could not get the info i needed lot of talk about locked passwords, Maps, USB cabled and so on, but right now that not what i was looking for
  7. My importer is bidding on a R34 GTR today and MIGHT "win" i have seen couple of treads as to how hard it is tune it as you need to be HKS dealer to have tuning software and i know you need to remove it for compliance . i am not buying for F-con mind you, i am buying it for everything else My questions are.. 1. is it really that hard to live with it and really is there anyone in Brisbane that can Tune it 2. how hard could it be to remove it and let say replace it with a Standard ECU I am only after around 230 -240KW at wheels, which i am guess you don't really need F-CON to archive or any after market ECU for that matter
  8. +1 For Evo 8 MR i looked at a few and they can now be had for around 31-32 Mark, although advertised for 35-36 Mark There bloody nice to drive... it was a night mare to pick which to Buy/ import (in my case R34 GTR vs Evo 8 MR) No clue on the Monaro, I will say a free flowing LS engine, is a very nice sounding engine... regardless, Test Drive before you make up you mind.... Big mistake otherwise

    My New R35

    dham.. your Lucky.. it not like this is 2007-9 one, it 2010 Model and lets face it 800Km is Brand New i am trying to import a R34 GTR at the moment, can not even imaging buying a R35...........hmmmmmmm ONE day
  10. Feel sorry for you Mate, but this is the current Used Car Market just hang in there, just trying to lower the price only mean's people will just ask you lower "and just for sake of asking" i sold my 350GT last week after around 1 month advertising, just have to find genuine buyer and then negotiate and make a sale, just lowering price to appease Tyre kickers does nothing.. Maybe New Tread with better picture's "not a link to pictures" might do the trick also
  11. can you tell me the size of the CE28N please "yes i know the tread is old" are they 18 or 19 looks awsome in a Black GTR
  12. Sold mine this week too, guess the V35 market is picking up
  13. Just want to add when i was importing my V35 Last year "there is a Huge premium on Black Car's at Auction for V35 / V36, in Jap Land", so you must be loosing a fare amount of $$$. Free bump too More Nice High resolution Photos always helps in selling a car mind you, you can look at my Ad if you want some tips
  14. Must be that Silver one with same mods in GTR.co.uk site... but So nice.... would probably end up copying inside Carbon idea, when i get mine... Everything else in this car is so out of the average Joe "Mine" budget, it's not funny. where those video's
  15. How do they order these items from Australia there are nice stuff for skylines - sorry to slightly go off topic
  16. Chris is definitely the man Ask Any V35 Owner We don't like when he meddles in R34 issues Fixed my speaker issues on the Boss system and setup Full ipod control.. works like a charm
  17. Subscribing to this i will be getting one hopefully soon and need to know also... the search function does throw very differing results in this category My roaming around the forum was that 1 Bar is SAFE and Reliable boost to run, but some people run much much higher and have no issues with stock ceramic jobs I think with Power FC, you can tune it so you get lot better Fuel economy, response and power delivery and just all around more refine feel to the mods as if they were done in factor also if you can PM me the Price you paid for V-Spec, will be great
  18. Would like to know the price of Rays CE28N 18*10 into 4 wheels Not sure about color, they normally come Bronze sort of color, I am after titanium silver
  19. my friend took his R33 GTST to Millennium Motorsports and he was very happy with the service "Fuel consumption issue" 2/27 Millenium Pl Tingalpa QLD 4173 (07) 3348 2755 give them a try
  20. Thanks for Help Guys.. really appreciate it but it look like he does NOT like to get it inspected so time to move on to another one, unless that changes from the Buyer No way in Hell i am buy a GTR without proper check up
  21. Got an email from Ben today apparently j-spec is having server issues, hence the site/ email is down
  22. N1 Turbo's aye... Thanks Can you guys spell out some names of workshops "preferable club affiliated" where i can pay over the phone to get inspection done of the car I don't know any workshops in Sydney and don't really want RTA inspection normally these places are hopeless with imports, let alone modified ones Never believed KM on a car, but if the motor is good and N1 holding Up well as they should... might not be as bad as i thought
  23. This is just one I am keen on, so will have look at it and see With an open mind. But yes compression test by a good performance Workshop inspection will be done, if I do End up getting serious with it
  24. The seller tells me he has had this car for 3 months and is not SAU'r but i am guessing there pretty good chance the previous owner is a NSW SAU'r, hopefully someone knows the Car a bit can anyone help me please here is the Car Sales ad Any comments Good or Bad (Bad - PM me) is appreciated In NSW 1. REV check - Free from Web site, so that not an issue 2. any Workshops i can get Compression Test / Leak down test done for a good price 3. i got Nissan Fast installed on my Laptop, so will check, but it is run of the mill stanard GTR not V-spec / II or NUR , so not much check there Cheers Kushil in 2 minds about importing at the moment, has this one and V-spec lined up in VIC, but like this one more as i like silver
