Hey guys, got a but of a problem just ran my vin number through the nissan fast program which came back showing it was manufactured on the 3rd month of 1998.

I then went to my car and had a look at the compliance sticker and its stated on that the cars date of manufacture is the first month of 1998...

I am a bit lost on why this could be..

Can anyone shed some light on my little problem??

Thanks :P

G'day Ross,

It could be mistake on paperwork when it was imported?

Who imported the 33? (Importer details might be on the Compliance plate)

If in doubt, contact DOTARS (number in import/compliancing section of this forum).

Hope it helps.

Cheers

Grant

p.s. - you sure have put up heaps of topics lately!

haha yer im new leave me alone :P

well there are no details on the compliance sticker about the importer so im not sure

Did you bought it from a dealer (Awesome Autos in Seaford by any chance?)?

If you're worried about build plate and compliance plate not matching you could contact Dept of Transport and ask

http://www.infrastructure.gov.au/roads/veh...cles/index.aspx there's phone number floating somewhere in this site.

Hope it helps.

yes lol got it from that place!

:P how did you know?

I went to this place to talk about trading in my 32 GTST and saw this, I'd be driving around in this if it was manual. I ended up buying manual one from private seller.

It looked super clean, how has it been treating you so far?

Cheers

haha yer it is very clean, cant get over that coincidence or what small world.

Yer the auto was a bit of a downside but i went looking at a few others although i couldnt find one as clean mine now so i just got it, thinking manual conversion in the future but who knows.

Hows your car going?

Hey,

My 33 is good but requires bit of work, bought it without roadworthy but for price and mods i got it for I couldn't pass it up. So far, still waiting on few parts before visiting mechanic for roadworthy inspection, should be fun.

Have bought fair amount of parts for it and slowly filling the garage.

Feel free to add me on msn to chat more if you'd like ([email protected]) providing if you have and use msn :P

Cheers

Grant

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
