Saw this as well n was wondering what was the dilly-o. I'd suspect a RAW has let everyone know that plates will be available shortly.

It's also not cheaper than Nissan will be selling them for.

Didn't Nissan quote $140k - $160K ?

I always knew Edward lee's was full of shit. They ripped off our house mate when he put a deposit on a Silvia that he never got.

actually it's the third repost... who deleted the second one?

I did.. mwahaha..

No I didn't..

I just told them to get rid of it because it didn't belong in the NSW section..

well for future reference, if you repost something that someone else has posted (albeit in the incorrect section) then either the threads should be merged, or the first thread moved to the correct section and the reposted thread deleted. :nyaanyaa:

I posted the thread before I saw the other one in the NSW section..

Try not to get your nickers in a knot Baron :nyaanyaa:

I closed and moved it... when someone with 7 posts makes a thread which contains nothing but an advertisement for a import dealership i'm fairly sure the rules about advertising apply so it went.

As for this thread, Corinne can you at least remove the URL's and contact details, you don't want to give Edward Lee's free advertising do you?

As for what's going on, it is possible to do what Edward Lee's is saying they can do in fact it is already being done by others and I would more than likely give my money to those guys over Edward Lee's. Other workshops already have import approval for R35 GT-R's under low volume new so why would you go with Lee's who will probably bend you over that much more.

yeah no prob. sorry I meant the second thread (in nsw). but anway, no problems was just trying to figure out what was happening! :nyaanyaa:

Good point Kris, Just removed.

Surely you wouldn't be so stupid to buy from Edward Lee's. Even if the car was brand new and if they were the first to get out here.

lol yeah, until Corinne posted this thread I was thinking WTF how is this information spreading so quick - I didn't realise he had spammed half of the country with his "announcement".

I laughed when I read it... he's about 3 months too late to start taking delivery of cars and about 6 months too late to be organising deposits and logistics... As you know, if you didn't get your shit together last year then good luck getting anything now.

The next dealership deliveries aren't till August so he's going to be buying at auction and throwing away his customer's money because he didn't plan ahead.

That's why I wouldn't trust the company as far as I could throw them.

    • looking forward to your t56 swap man its a game changer if it works! 
    • So, when are you trying the new GR86 or BRZ?
    • Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC IAT is measured under the blower hat I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c
    • Hey Mark...sorry to interrupt your career change to hair dressing... but...did you ever fit the interchiller to the commodore, and if so how was it? And, who made it?
    • I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......
