Was driving down Compton Rd at Springwood side when I swear a Black R35 came round the corner!

Now I was still driving so my head turning capabilities were limited but the back lights were there.. now unless I was daydreaming someone is getting around with one on the road..

Any other sightings?

i think u can buy them under the import laws for compliance here, a company in NSW is selling them for $160K or so. i know that a guy in the US has got one legal over there but had to pull the transmission and the engine out of the car, ship it over, then reassemble it as a built car. sounds like a lot of hassle if they are doing it for these ones sold here.

nvm i think they are driving it on dealership plates.. i saw photos in the r35 discussion.. yeah i know you can bring em over.. but not ready for compliancing.. thats why nissan have to wait.. my brother in law was thinking bout buying one but cant wait till compliance.. you can get 2007 - 08 models for 99 - 120 from some i've seen..

actually there is one near my area Wishart a black R35 GTR with standard QLD plates on it HJOxxx , i spoke to the owner a 48 yr old bloke he said he bought it from Yamanto Imports down south and they complied and arranged everything for it .. i'll try and get some pics when the owner isnt around ..

But i do know there is a few comming in on as Race only imports if you have a cams L2-4 licence you can own one and drive it .. the compay that complied this R35 was I-SHE Imports never heard of em before must be new?

    • I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.
    • I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.
    • It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...
    • I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate
    • Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
