Over the weekend, I finally purchased an Australian Delivered GTR (which I previously owned) as it was always my intention to buy it back (hence why I stayed in touch with the owner for 5.5years). Originally my mate owned it for 7 years (1996 – 2002) then I owned it for 3 years (2003 – 2006) & I bought back after it was meticulously cared for 5.5 years :).

It has only traveled 5000km over the past 5.5years.

Colour: Jet Silver Metallic KJ1G

Delivered: Aug 1991

Sold: Aug 1994

Number: 60 of 100 (16942)

KMS: 102000 (with full service history, log books & original spare keys)

Dealership: Nissan Hobart TAS

Owners: 3

Purchased: Apr 11

Locale: Sydney NSW

Currently the car has a few bolt on mods, however, the stock bits which have been swapped out are retained.

That's great news, congratulations.

Maybe a few of us "Aussie owners" should get together for a luncheon or something. I'm happy to coordinate things if that's of any interest to others?

Post some pics if you can. If not email them to me and I can resize them and post them for you if you want.

Congrats again and let me know if a meet and great is of interest.

Bob.

A quick discussion with Marko made me recheck the supplemental for my chassis number and it is number 53.

Attached is the supplemental, there a few typos in the chassis number listing (i assume this as they are way out of whack).

bob & ken - im up for an 'aussie' meet. where do u guys live though as im based in syd?

here are some pics - the plates will replaced soon with my custom plates 'GO21LA'.

my plates are currently red with silver lettering which would be an eyesore, should i get silver plates with black lettering OR black plates with silver lettering?

Im up for it but am geographically challenged.

Maybe we can work with you? What area are you in?

I'm thinking of Tuesday April 26 as this has been declared as a public holiday due to Easter Monday conflicting with Anzac Day.

Let's get some feedback and see if this day is any good.

Bob. :thanks: :thanks: :thanks:

Looks stunning! :cheers:

I'm in Castle Hill but don't mind travelling within reason.

Black Plates with silver lettering would be my preference but it's up to you.

I'm getting pretty excited about meeting a few of you so if we only end up with 4-5 that's fine too. BUT.........if we get 10 or more I'd be ecstaticc. :worship: :worship:

Bob.

Guys I am located on the Sunshine Coast in QLD and I have guests from the 20th - 30th of April.

OK, that makes it a bit harder than I thought........:huh:

Bugger. Anyway well see what other responses we get over the next week or so.

Bob.

well if we did this cruise in syd, it would be:

1. gtr fan - black gr

2. myself -silver gtr

3. bob - red gtr

...that would be all 3 colours available! imagine we pics we could round up on the day :)

I wish :( I haven't rego'd my car since my daughter was born 2.5 years ago. I last went for a drive to a Dyno Day where I met Terry_GT-R34 and his son. Also needs new timing belt /waterpump etc and to fix some leaking manifold gaskets. All of which I intend to do by end of winter.

So after that love to come out and see some other ADM GTR's!!

I'm in Rouse Hill so not that far.

Sounds good............ I may be able to get my mate who recently bought the red one to come.

If we get 4 cars that's not too bad.

:cheers:

so that would make it 2 red gtr's & 1 silver gtr

gtr fan cant make it

so that would make it 2 red gtr's & 1 silver gtr

gtr fan cant make it

Bummer...... I re-read the post after I posted my reply. Shame, it would have been great to have all 3 colours.

Anyway..... is there anyone out there that has a 100% STOCK JDM?

If so, it would be a great opportunity to take some side by side photos of the Aussie vs. Japanese models showing off the differences.

Bob.

    • Add to this... What blew the fuse too? If a circuit feeding power to the coils was blown, how were the coils even functioning to let the car start?   There is some seriously wrong wiring in that car for certain, and I'm betting there is some melted cables somewhere, but I can't explain the 30v either, unless there is something back feeding on that power line that has a dodgy power system and the electronics are giving it hell.
    • This is typically the case with such threads. What I cannot quite get my head around is where a reading above 12V (or 13.8 or 14.x or whatever the maximum achievable voltage might actually be in that specific car) comes from. 25V or 30V should be completely impossible. There's no way to create it. Hard to answer that question. It will literally depend on whether the current tune relies on the values as set. I'd guess it probably does. ie, the real base pressure being 49 means that the flowrate through the injectors will be higher than if it was 43.5. The Haltech's modelling should be handling that, but because it thinks the pressure is only 43.5, then..... I dunno. It should be thinking that it will be injecting less fuel with each pulse duration than is actually happening. So, something is definitely not-as-it-should-be, but specifically what that is is beyond my abilities to imagine. Someone like Dose who spends more time with Haltechs might have a better thought.
    • Bit of a late reply here as me and my wife have been really busy with new born twins. I finally got these issues fixed and it was something really stupid that caused all of this 🤦‍♂️... After alot of mucking around with trying to figure out what is causing these issues, I back probed one of the R35 coils on the power 12v supply, with the engine running it got 25v! And I thought, hang on..., this isn't normal. Measured my battery with the engine running to check for over charge from the alternator and it wasn't that. So then I dissconnected the R35 PRP coil harness and backprobed the power supply on the engine loom where the ignition coil harness connects, with the key on ignition (engine off) it measured 30v! So then I had to trace where that high voltage was coming from and it lead me to the brown relay "ECM & IGN coil relay" inside the cabin next to the ECU on the passanger wall. This relay feeds power to the ECM and ignition coils. Tried swapping it with another same relay. nah still 30v.. coming from the 2 green/white wires in the brown relay. So then I set my multi meter to the beep continuity mode and probed every fuse on the fuse box inside the cabin to try and find this high voltage power source. Wasn't any of the fuses inside the cabin. Then probed all the fuses in the engine bay and BAM, got my power source that was a 10AMP fuse called "ENG CONT". Pulled the fuse out, and what do you know... it was blown. 🤦‍♂️  So then I quickly replaced it with a new 10AMP fuse, started the car and yeah haha [insert extreme face palm]... The RPM blimping thing went away, car idles smoothly now like what it was before. I swear! I checked all my fuses with my test light twice before I created this forum thread. I think, maybe because one side of that faulty 10A fuse lit up on my test light, I must have thought it was still ok and not blown. But now I know to have both sides light up on the test light when checking fuses... I hate diagnosing electricals.... I'd take mechanical problems over electrical problems any day🤣. Drove the car around my suburb with the engine up to operating temp and it runs fine like before. However, I notice that my fuel pressure is still at 49psi. So I'm thinking this must be normal for my system as I've upgraded the stock fuel pump to a Walbro 255L/h with a constant 12v mod.  But anyway, I'm just glad to have my daily back on the road! Thanks everyone for the replies on this thread, all sorted now! One thing I want to ask you tuner guys, my base fuel pressure on the haltech main settings are set to 43.5psi from default (my tuner must have not checked the fuel pressure maybe when tuning my car?). Do I set it to what it actually is idling on at 49psi? Or just leave it ("if it aint broke, don't fix it/leave it")?  
    • The max they would go for me is 50.
    • That cannot have been a fun set of drilling. The stock "baffle" looks identical to rb26, I just cut fuel cell foam to fit the full length under the baffle.
