If Nissan want to lure people away from buying grey market imports. Charge ~$85,000 - 95,000 for the car, that way they make their profit and the consumer gets an Australian delivered car. The consumer then gets the benefits of warranty and none of the grey market insurance/compliance troubles.

i havent heard anything....so i thought id rattle his chains a bit more

Good day to you sir….I have received some more information that I think you may be interested in…..an alien airship has been spotted with sir Harold holt himself at the helm(it seems the KGB and the Chinese were calling a “bluff”….cheeky buggers). And he was waving what appeared to be a Dot”ARSE” import approval for a 35 GTR.So it appears the great man of conspiracy himself is getting in on it…..a “grey”import….although my source’s tell me he has a black GTR(not sure why they call them “Grey” import…..must be because it’s a “grey” area….hmmmm it figures I guess).Any way the old hot rodder himself has fitted it out with sharkfin exhaust’s,“extractors” and a set of “speedy” jelly bean alloy wheels(I think someone should tell the old fooker about nismo or Autobacs or something).I hope you get your “eyes and ears” to look out for this vehicle at the warf’s as I sure feel for the future of Nissan Australia.Other things I have spotted with my eyes, 1x dog taking a dump on the nextdoor neighbors nature strip and ears,the sound of the postmans Honda CT110 mowing square over that bad boy…..and the smell….its and awfull lot like……Hey I know….when I go down to my local Nissan dealer!!!!!

That is clearly bullshit.

Harold Holt was never knighted.

on another note, should we tell Colin this....appears Nissan are showing off some grey import, damn fringe dwellers!

:laughing-smiley-014:

lol, the jig is up. it's actually midnight purple 16. from some angles it looks grey, from other angles it looks red and from yet more angles it makes nissan look childish...

:laugh:

God there is some funny shit in this thread!!

Driving a De-tuned GTR would be like going on a date with Jessica Alba, and finding out she's a man. True your friends wouldn't know, but deep inside, you'd know the truth and want to strangle yourself with you own intestines.

I think that was the icing on the cake :laugh:

The thing is at the end of the day nissan will still sell every single R35 GTR they can get there money-hungry paws on. So who cares if a few are grey imported, theres only so many made a month anyway, and the aussie allotment of thoes is going to be pathetically small.

    • I can't agree. If we hadn't all been brought up with the noise caused by the inefficiency of an ICE, no-one would actually ask for all that. An EV is like any other car, it just goes better. 
    • 2 more things I have to work out Easy one first...can anyone describe how to pull the fuel pump and sender from a 33? I can feel there is some sort of mount and clips but don't have a manual and don't know the trick......if not I'll spend some quality time in the boot witha lighter tomorrow. Second question is harder.  He had changed the upper plenum to a plazmaman but clearly got to a point with the vacuum hoses where he said "f**k it, I'm going inside for a beer" and never came back to that job because it was a mess. Am I right to think that I need: 1. Pre throttle (16mm nipple on inlet) to AAC's main 20mm fitting as the main pre throttle feed 2. ACC has a second 13m outlet joined to that 20mm fitting which I think is the pre throttle air supply for the cold start valve? 3. Cold start valve's outlet fitting then goes to Plenum (to bypass throttle?) There is some adapter on the back of the ACC with 2 fittings (13mm and 10mm), do I run the 10mm through a 1 way valve to the Brake Booster (4) and the 13mm back to a 13mm nipple on the Plenum as the Idle control (5)? 6. Run a 6mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart BOV to the Plenum? 7. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Fuel Pressure Reg to the Plenum? 8. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart Boost controller to the Plenum? (Wastegate already has a pre turbo pressure source running to the solenoid then the wastegate on the other side of the bay)  Any help appreciated, the GTR is quite different setup and while the Stagea also has FFP it is different again. (And no Dose, I'm not pissing it all off and putting a ethrottle on it....)
    • OK, onto some questions to try and speed up the process a little. Does anyone know what core this Garret is? I know it is a high flowed standard turbo but nothing else about it. Tag says OK 0169J - 446179-5032 Same question for the injectors, I don't know what they flow and ideally can work it out before it hits the dyno, they are a mustard yellow side feed
    • Quick side trip into the engine externals, alternator and PS were in place including tensioned belts, but the PS was dry (my guess is he had the steering rack reco-ed). Filled it up with Transmax Z but it will need more bleeding once the engine is running no doubt. BTW I've said before, I don't know what kind of soft animals you have in the city, but out here they breed the rats tough. I bet they were disappointed when they tasted synthetic ATF.... Coilpacks are Splitfires with a factory loom in reasonable condition. I didn't pull one put I bet the spark plugs are new as its a new engine
    • Onto intake pressure test. I have a Raceworks (damn brand thieves!) pressure test adapter that lets you apply pressure through a standard tyre valve and comes with a pressure gauge.....I just blocked off the other end immediately before the throttle body. Applied 30psi....and the turbo intake immediately popped off with a bang. Sorted that but it was still leaking, turns out there is a pinhole leak at the BOV adapter that I'll have to find a local place to TIG up. I'm sure it makes SFA difference with such a small leak but I want it to be right. Everything else up to the throttle body was good. Also cleaned and oiled the KNX cone filter, and this is the AFM if anyone can identify it (car runs a PowerFC)
