At $175,000 plus on road costs as stated if bought from a dealer locally (most expensive in country for stamp duty) it will end up around $221,738.10 but $4,000 to $5,000 less in other states, if bought for $160,000 it would be $201,263.10.

Vehicle $175,000.00

LCT is $35363.10

Stamp Duty is $11375.00

Total price is $221,738.10

US basic coverage warranty is 36 month and 36,000 miles so hopefully Nissan Australia will offer the same deal.

Just to clarify, I think the $175K + onroads they quoted includes LCT, registration and stamp duty if in NSW. If not in NSW, you will have to allow for the other onroads such as registration + stamp duty + plates + roadworthy etc as applicable in your state. Basically means for the $175K price, you can drive the car back home to your state with NSW plates etc.

Normally if they stated $175,000 plus on road costs that would mean car only nothing else because on road costs are LCT, Rego, Stamp Duty and so on, if it does included these tax's what other costs would their be.

It would be advertised Drive Away if everything was included as I don't know of a dealer who would advertise a high end car with all tax included as the total price puts people off.

You may be right there...I was summarising what I could remember from the long conversation I had with them. I'm sure if people were wanting to order one, then a written quote would be provided to confirm exactly what is included or excluded.

In any case it is certainly seems to be getting up there in price to get one via these guys, compared to USA prices. Only time will tell what Nissan Australia will be doing with pricing/availability.

You guys are funneh.

You all forget when talking about this price crap is that some muppet out there WILL fork over 200k just to tel his mates hes got a GTR before everyone else.

Bloody oath mang...if you got the dough, why not?

now all the shit talkers sit down and stop dribbling

its been done just like i said

lol

for a car that doesnt have warranty here in Aus

for a 50k+ premium

for something thats all in jap

Oh, and it was not officially possible until after your post, so there were no shit talkers apart from yourself as it wasn't officially released by the gov't

so i am guessing that nissan Australia is bringing the GTR to Australia for over $200k soon????? or are people just talking crap????

I can tell you guys that Nissan Australia have the first Australia Delivered GTR (RED COLOUR) in Melbourne which they are currently evaluating.......

I think my RED R35 arrived in early July, way before Nissan

So that makes my car the first in Melbourne.

Also it's the first to be registered in Victoria

    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
    • Maybe SAUNSW could see howany members would do a motorkhana day if Schofield's is still available for a reasonable price...
    • Skip the concrete, we just need to smooth a field. Mark knows how to drive a grader Duncan   I reckon 100x100 flat area for skid pan style, and then some sort tracks for rally... Duncan's already got a rally car on the premises to...
    • Well, yeah, the RB26 is definitely that far off the mark. From a pure technology point of view it is closer to the engines of the 60s than it is to the engines of the last 10 years. There is absolutely nothing special about an RB26 that wasn't present in engines going all the way back to the 60s, except probably the four valve head. The bottom end is just bog standard Japanese stuff. The head is nothing special. Celicas in the 70s were the same thing, in 4cyl 2 valve form. The ITBs are nothing special when you consider that the same Celicas had twin Solexes on them, and so had throttle plates in the exact same place. There's no variable valve timing, no variable inlet manifold, which even other RBs had either before the 26 came out or shortly afterward. The ECU is pretty rude and crude. The only things it has going for it are that the physical structure was pretty bloody tough for a mass produced engine, the twin-turbos and ITBs made for a bit of uniqueness against the competition (and even Toyota were ahead on the twin turbs thing, weren't they?) and the electronic controls and measuring devices (ie, AFMs, CAS, etc) were good enough to make it run well. Oh, and it sounds better than almost anything else, ever. The VR38 is absolutely halfway between the RB generation and the current generation, so it definitely has a massive increase in the sophistication of the electronics, allowing for a lot more dynamic optimisation of mapping. Then there's things like metal treatments and other coatings on things, adoption of variable cam stuff, and a bunch of other little improvements that mean it has to be a better thing than the RB26. But I otherwise agree with you that it is approximately the same thing as a 26. But, skip forward another 10 years from that engine and then the things that I mentioned in previous post come out to play. High compression, massively sophisticated computers, direct injection, clever measuring sensors, etc etc. They are the real difference between trying to make big power with a 26 and trying to make big power with a S/B50/54 (or whatever the preferred BMW engine of the week is).
