usually they destroy them when they take em off

So that means that if i import a car with gt2530, intercooler, coilovers, etc. there is a chance i could end up with a car missing a whole heap of parts and have to purchase stock items?

people talk bout taking parts off and hiding it in the car or just leave it in the car and install it back on later

That's what i meant to do.

Thanks,

Wow after driving a VL commodore 3L auto this skyline is amazing - handling, power, looks kills it in every way. Just be careful in the wet this thing will spin the rear wheels in any gear - it can be a bit scarry.

Great tourqe though u can change through the gears at 2000rpm and its fine, once you go over 2500 u can start to feel that turbo kick in and its wooshka from there on!

I'm on a high - hehe!!!

@ Richelieu... I get the impression that compliancers will take off all aftermarket gear excluding stereos and fit with standard items but will refit your mods after registration for a fee (increased compliance cost up to $2k more I've heard - which I guess could be worth it depending on mods).

zymotic,

Can you tell me how long compliance took for you? My Skyline just landed in AU on October 5, and is currently getting clearance from customs...My Skyline will be getting complied at the same place as yours, and i want to know how long it'll take, approximately...cant freakin' wait!!!

Congrats on the new line zymotic!

"I know it won't be quiet as fast as a WRX but it will certainly look better in my eyes" - maybe not yet, but a WRX is worth double what you paid for your line! A couple of mods and the only WRX you'll see, will be one in your rear vision mirror :)

Good luck!

    • Update Issues 5 (plus #4) - 10 After making a claim about issue #4's missing part, DeAgostini Japan sent a whole new issue #4 and it arrived about 2 weeks after that. That was back in early March. It took another 4 weeks to receive issues 5 - 13 though. This update is for issues 5 - 10. Ove the 5 issues the front left suspension and most of the engine have been completed. The quality of the castings and fit of the parts is quite good, it seems better than DeAgostini's BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the Fast & Furious 2 movie, which (to me anyway) doesn't seem to have as tight tolerances or quite as accurate castings.  Each issue has a lot of info about the 1989 - 1993 Skyline range and other Nissan models from that era, but the focus is on the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo and the various racing it did in Japan, Europe (Spa 24hrs) and of course Australia. I've included some text translated with Google Lens in some photos and will add to them if there's anything worth including. 
    • If it's for a SR20, make sure it's not the American Poncams, might as well call them Poocams. Had a set in a friend's car, all scuffed up after a few track days. Like the metallurgy Tomei USA used is junk. Went back to JDM OG Tomei Poncams, no issues till now.   Tomei USA is not the real OG Tomei.   Random rant over, fk the US of A, bunch of c u n t s. 
    • Most of the industry in North America either runs on Siemens or Allen Bradley. I have two redundant S7-1500's on my desk right next to me for simulation. Siemens has been losing ground though since Stuxnet, as cybersecurity is a big thing. In my line of work that is federally regulated, you must by law have a cybersecurity management program in place and its audited and inspected every so often.  I work with Emerson PLC's daily (RX3i's) and have done large biogas/refinery projects with their DCS's. Their PLC's are somewhat OK minus the way they do PLC redundancy (You have to download on both PLC's separately every time you make a change )  As for their DCS's... you'll be limited financially first before anything else stops you. Costs are exorbiant at roughly 10x what it would cost you to do with any other system (e.g AB PAC).  1990's, those suckers are brand new haha! Kraft-Heinz (An old client when I use to work for an ESP) still runs Siemens TI505 PLC's from the mid 80's. Ohh how I don't miss working with those... you could only do a certain number of online downloads until it's "Change" buffer would be full and you would then need to go offline to do a full download. There was no warning of when this was coming up and it generally would happen when you would go in at 2am to make changes before production -_-.     
    • Unfortunately, not only is that not the case, one of the main "Selling points" of safety over comms is they clearly state in writing that there's no need to segregate safety networks from non-safety networks. It always gets intermingled with everything else on an ICS/OT network.
