Congratulations to...

Aussie_Delivered_R32_GTR for its selection as the R32 GTR ADM representative at the GTR FESTIVAL in May.

Thanks Terry,

I'm really looking forward to this event.

Ironically the car hasn't been out since the 25th Anniversary in August 2014!

Fresh petrol won't hurt.

Bob.

That's great information - Thank You. I was a little suspicions as I also identified that the NSW registration history did not match their advertised story of the vehicle history. They may have an explanation for this though. But I am now better informed of the facts.

How did you know the exact month and colour? Is there a VIN code table that has a break down of the VIN layout and relevant codes so that they can be fully interpreted? I have tried to search to find it and haven't had much luck as there are too many references to VIN. :)

Thanks again

You need to find out more about how the car was imported; because nissan Oz was selling GTRs in 91/92 you can't import them yourself. About the only valid way for that car to be registered is if it was a Personal Import. Check the VIN with DOTARS to find out how it was complied.

I imported a 91 but it is only for race/rally use and can't be fully registered

Under the new rules you can't import them, but there are plenty of imports built around that time that are completely legal

link to proof? the rules have always been that low volume import is not possible when the manufacturer imports them. they can only come in:

Full homologation. Only nissan oz ever had this and only for 91/92 models.

1989 rule - was 15 year old until it was changed to stop all the post 1989 jap goodies coming in. Will become a 30 year old rule in 2019.

Personal import - if you can prove you owned it for 2 years (used to be 1) overseas

SEVS/RAWS etc if the manufacturer didn't import it at that time. So 89, 90, 93, 94 models are OK. 4 cars came in before 91 through scuderia veloce, the rest came in post 93.

Race/Rally - can't be registered except restricted/rally rego

Parts - has to be cut in half at a minimum.

Haha... And I think it'll be good to have "SAU" stickers on don't you (for MotiveDVD)?

we are talking about information that is now over 10 years old, but under the old system (green metal compliance plates) the rule stated the r32 skyline was eligible, which meant all variants and year models were eligible, just like the 300zx all turbo models were eligible

Under the new system that is not the case, you can only bring in year models that Australia did not sell new

Not exactly...........

The restricted R32's are only if manufactured between July 1 1991 and June 30 1992.

Consequently you could/can import them outside of these dates.

Cheers......... Bob.

under the new rule that is correct, under the old rule it was open slather

Would anyone be interested?

yuppp

Yes please

As soon as I firm up the prices and arrangements, ill let you guys know what is going on :)

The originals are made out of a thick rubbery kind of material, but the reproductions will be made from fiberglass, however carbon may be an option too.

    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new  
    • Nissan needs to forget about building SUVs in every size possible and bring back the damn Silvia/200sx duo to compete with the 86/brz. Maybe with the Honda type r motor pointing the right way
    • Good to see you followed your heart, got your dream car and have it pretty well sorted out now. I think anyone can get caught out with a seller not being 100% honest about a cars problems. Can relate to all the electrical issues, had similar issues with my first car (mk2 escort) ages ago
    • I just bought the Nexus S3 for my gtt, haven’t installed it yet as I’m collecting parts to do everything at once…so far spent $14,000 The Nexus is nearly future proof
