I just thought it was interesting: I was under the impression that they didn't meet the power to weight criteria, but J-spec is advertising as landed and complied.

edit by me: Just double check with DOTARS on any car before purchase, like we do a REVS check over here for finance/theft, check with dotars that it is elligible, importers seem to be busy people. :ermm:

Below is the list of variants that are "eligible" and to my knowledge only 2.5 turbo has had emission tests done, I have a M35 test car here at the moment and I was looking at importing a 3.5 for an emissions test so I would love to know who can import them as I wont need to.

Vehicle variants fitted with VQ25DD engines are not eligible.

SEVS Ruling

Variants:

2WD: 350RX,350RX AXIS, 350RX AXIS S, 300RX, 250RS, 250RSV.

4WD: 350RX FOUR, AR-X FOUR, 350RX FOUR AXIS, 350RX FOUR AXIX S, 250T RX FOUR, 250RS FOUR, 250t RS FOUR V, 250t RS FOUR V HICAS.

I think you'll find the persons in question who have importe 2004 model M35's are engaging in a lengthy legal procedure with the importer who said compliance is available for their cars. It's a bit of a sore point with them as they're likely to be out of pocket a substantial amount.

i know this, and i know who they imported it through aswell, and that is exactly what im talking about. Didnt think that the 04 models were compliant yet due to theemission laws having ben changed.

The guys that are having issues are running VQ25's aren't they?

On can only assume the VQ35 would easily pass emmissions: There are a heap of late model V35s complied, as far as I am aware, and it obviously passed fine to allow the maxima and 350z to be sold here.

The VQ25 was JDM only, which is why it's having trouble passing our emmissions testing, if I have understood correctly...

I have a feeling the Stagea runs the VQ35DE, but the V35 and Aus delivered VQ35 cars run the VQ35DD? I might be making that up, but that could be a factor?

Yes you are wrong there. My 350Z is definitely VQ35DE from 2003 to 2006 (the latter model being slightly different), and in 2007, a new revised engine which is 80% new, called VQ35HR

    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
    • Stock O2 sensors are narrowband. They're useless once you're away from stoich. IE, useless for what you're trying to do. 10:1 will read the same as 14:1 from the stock O2 sensors. That is, they'll read rich. The same level of rich.
    • I agree once misfires happen it's basically worthless, but the hope is you can see what's happening in the run up to that. 
    • You should totally get a Brumby, and then come pick up the Subaru Liberty GTB I have here. EJ25 Turbo, 6 speed manual from the sti (just no dccd), and the good rear diff. Drop all that into a Brumby and go have fun!
