12 month personal imports are still around and will let you bring anything sold here locally, into the country. So yes, you could bring in a GTR if you want. Proof or ownership in whatever country for 12 months is required, rego papers, etc

But if you did this in Japan, which i've thought about, and not live there, storing the bloody thing would be so expensive.

Almost tempting to live, work there for a year, get paid in Yen, and buy a car... yeah you have to store it, but i'd imagine you'd come out in front at the end, Baron?

thats my plan when i finish uni :)

How much are they going for in japan?

Well I've got it got it now! And damn it's awesome to drive.

A couple of little things Oz people might not be aware of. There's no SD card slot for the HD and no iPod adapter. There's also no auto head-lights or wipers (same as US guys).

But the series 2 premium wheels in the day-light look AMAZING and I'm totally blown away with the quality of the paint finish on the whole car. It has a truely amazing pearl flake in it.

And finally for anyone that is in Vic and is keen to look at a car - Nissan Ferntree Gully actually have a demo car down there now to have a play with. It's a Red Premium and looks hot!

Congrats on getting your R35 man, they are truely amazing to drive.

So ADM only has the Harddrive cd ripper? No other way to get your music on it?

Does it have a DVD drive or CD?

Also - at this stage there wasn't an option for ANYTHING - that included extended warranty and even something as simple as a tint.

Well make sure to get a really really dark tint as you become a instant celebrity driving these cars LOL

FBI Tint, pearl white GTR, gun metal rims = teh ultimate hotness.... add to that the black A pillars.... totally drool worthy...

If you want to give it some proper paint protection Andrew, take it to Damian @ Final Inspection... he'll make sure the paint gets the best care possible :P

So you can organise test drives at FTG Nissan???

Yep - only has the CD ripper. And even at that it won't rip MP3 cd's (it will play MP3 cd's but won't rip them onto the HD).

And a normal CD takes around 15mins to rip. It's definitely not the cars greatest point.

But go out and put your right foot down a few mm and all is forgiven :P

      For the record, I hate the colour. Even if I'll never see it again, I know its in there.

      This is another issue I'm fixing. This little valve stops all the oil from draining to the sump when the engine is turned off. What happens eventually is that the engine is a little noisy and has the oil pressure light on for a few seconds after turning it on. Basically it takes a few seconds to build the pressure when all the oil has drained. This valve is a non serviceable part and is attached to the oil filter housing, BMW suggests to replace the entire housing if this valve fails.  As it turns out this valve can be removed and that means you can get an aftermarket replacement, which I did. The failure, for me at least is that the valve doesn't seat properly after a while, which I've demonstrated. The new one is a ball end and always seats properly.

      Using Trickle Chargers

      Welp don't know if this is good but I can hear a sizzling sound in my battery Hope I didn't fry it. Turns out a bad battery in the multi meter will give a false reading (likely what happened when I said I had 15x volts), swapped the battery and monitoring now. I'm hoping that sizzling sound is just the equlisation charging

      Yeah I'm happy to talk to whoever, I don't want to take ownership or even manage it if they don't want but I can probably help with hosting on the sau setup. It's a great resource and should be protected.

      So, got some bits..   New oil filter housing gasket (main problem I'm trying to fix -see leak above)  While you're in there's: New belts, pulley and tensioners.  Vanos oil line New oil drain valve New water pump and pulley  New fumoto valve (all my cars have these). Some of this stuff seems ok now that I've pulled it out but I still have no idea how old it all is.  The belts looked fine and then I noticed this. Like somebody has hooked it with a pick.
