hey dude, i just bought my r34 gtr from sydney a week ago and its pretty easy to get everything done.

basically i would get an inspection done unless you are gonna go down and inspect it yourself, a professional inspection cost about 300bux from companies like VIP automotive whom can also arrange transport.

shipping from syney to melbourne usinf CEVA logistics (formally TNT) cost about 500bux for an open truck but generally will incur some stone damage on the way so make sure you get the insurance with it as my car got its winshield and front bar damaged which im getting fixed soon.

otherwise pay the extra for a closed truck container which is made for luxury and race cars but is more pricey.

fill out a transfer of ownership form and get the seller to do the same and go to vicroads here (you will require a RWC) pay the stamp duty and other fees and your done!!

      V36 2008 Coupe Wiring Differences with Android Screen

      By sausagepianist · Posted

      Hey all, I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.  I have a 2008 Japanese import V36 coupe with nav but without Bose. I bought one of those AliExpress android screens, which for the most part works really well.  The only thing that doesn't work is the air con controls (well sort of) and the factory reverse camera.  The AC can be controlled fine but it doesn't report the change in temp and mode to the screen, and the volume knob/other audio controls from the panel don't register on the learning app.  I am pretty certain that the problem is the difference in the head unit between base model (Nav but no Bose) 2007-2009 coupes and anything after 2009.  Mine is the one with the blue connector all the way to the right as seen in this forum post:  The reason I think this is there is one wire left over that doesn't fit anywhere on this head unit, or in the factory screen which also uses different connectors to more recent versions.  I've seen the upgrade from OWC, and have sent the guy a message on eBay but no response yet.  I also don't particularly need the whole kit, just *maybe* an adapter for this one cable.  Did anyone else here have the same problem, or have any insight about what I can do to get this working?  I have been in contact with the seller but all they seem to be able to do is ask for more pictures and videos. Minor edit to add:  I have been researching and found a screen on Aliexpress that actually specifies my head unit in the listing, so these things do exist.  I will contact the seller to see if the wiring adapters are interchangeable with other screens.   Thanks in advance!
