Does anyone have any info on the total number of road registered R35 GT-R's kicking around Oz so far - JDM and the Nissan Aust delivered ones.

Nissan Aust website says they pre-sold 150 for delivery in 2009 - just wondering if this sounds about right.

I was told that Australia will be allocated 600 GTR's for the first 5 years, and of that 500, 200 allocated for 2009..

600 is a lot. Not quite sure we will have 600 buyers - but hopefully they all sell ASAP.

That's what i was told too, before the "production cut" ie. GFC effects.

I think the numbers might be lower than that

.........and the way DOTARS is setup we can forget about topping those numbers with grey imports - since Nissan Aust already imported the car...............damn.

I don't see the numbers exceeding 300-odd for the life of the model.

Is it 600 or 500? or was it going to be:

"600 GTR's for the first 5 years, and of that 500, 200 allocated for 2009.

Of the remaining 200, 50 will be delivered a year to bring the 300GTR's to Australia.

Nissan expects that the happy 200 GTR owners will all be not voiding their warranties, and as such have made provisions for enough mechanics to work on 150GTR's.

The extra jobs from servicing the 100 gtr's will bring much wealth to the economy"?

(yes, i just made that up)

Kind of relevant:Europe is currently in the process of delivering the first GT-Rs to more than 2,200 pre-order customers. The model R35 GT-R was first launched in Japan in December 2007, selling 5,900 units until March 2009. It went on sale in the US in July 2008, where 2,100 have been sold so far.

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By silviaz · Posted

      Ah yep. I asked a auto electrician about getting a cheap rebuilt alternator vs a new one. He also said he used to it back in the day but it ended up costing similar to what a new one would and recommended getting a new one,.

      Will I Need A Retune After Cahanging My Catalytic Converter ?

      By silviaz · Posted

      Ah, to clarify if the car has already been tuned and has been modified and you want to go from a oem cat to a 100 cell or decat or vice versa.Are you saying that the car doesn't need to be tuned after a cat change if it's already been tuned?

      High temp brake fluid?

      By Komdotkom · Posted

      This has been covered a bazillion times but google wet boiling point vs dry. Motul is only good when it's fresh, once it absorbs moisture it gets pretty average very quickly. So as above, make sure you change it if you're going racing. I run the Endless brake fluid in mind, but only because a mate is a distributor and it's cheap. It's not quite as good as SRF but I'm running 380mm rotors on a Skyline so it's not like they get hot.

      Does 98ron contain ethanol?

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      That's the thing, they still add it and it makes fuel cheaper, implying adding 10% of it drops the cost of 91 by what, 5c a liter? I remember when it was barely half the price of 98. Because you know, 85% of what is in the fuel is way cheaper than 91 fuel is by volume.

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Auto electricians that do repairs on automotive AC systems can source service kits. I don't know where they actually source them. I do know that there is one available for the R34 comp that I would need it for. If you have to pay someone to dismantle, clean and do needed repairs and fit kit contents, then you'd probably end up spending a good fraction of the cost of a new one. I would not be paying for that, because I would be doing it myself. My mechanic (bro-in-law) will happily source what is needed. Back in the day (like in the 80s and 90s), rebuilding an AC compressor was the standard approach, same as for starter motors, alternators, etc, because new replacements were v. expensive. After the China manufacturing boom and the rise of the disposable approach to everything, people just started throwing broken/worn stuff away and not rebuilding things.
