Did I interpret this article correctly?

Nissan Australia will be selling Nismo upgraded models here like HSV/FPV, AMG, Ralliart, etc?

And Nismo parts will be available for us to buy locally?

That should be make them cheaper yes?

we think the scope for Nismo to start engineering whole vehicles is right," says Sproule.

For the person in charge, he should really know more about history. Nismo only recently has turned into the soft image by selling exhaust tips and sticker sets for 4WD's etc into Usa IMO

Before he showed up, Nismo certainly engineered their own cars;

For R35s you mean... I mean what other cars other than a 370Z do they sell here that would actually make upgrades viable...

A "Nismo Edition" Pathfinder? :rolleyes:

This!

And the article makes it out like Nismo is a new thing, yet it is been out longer then HSV / FPV.

I wouldnt be surprised if there talking about the new altima/maxima that just got released in the US and will be released and racing in the tourers here next year with the 5.6ltr quad cam V8

$283 for a CAI is not bad, i was expection at least $400+ from NISMO.

Wait till the local dealers get their hands on this line of stuff. They'll surely meet your expectations with pricing, the fucking theives.

    • No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.     
    • I've got a Turbosmart wastegate, ATP catch can, many GK Tech parts and Haltech everything. Everything's been perfect, sorry to hear your experience wasn't the same
    • The only high-power RB I've personally seen go pop after running for all of an hour on a dyno was built by B2R, while being remotely tuned by B2R. The only wastegates I've ever had leak like a sieve, return, still leak, return and get shipped back the wrong ones were from Turbosmart. The only final drive that I've ever purchased that were unusable, twice... were from Speedtek. The only seat mounts that I've ever purchased that placed the seats in the door frame were from Crank Motorsport. The only poorly designed parts that I had the manufacturer confirm should have been designed as per what I mentioned were from GKTech. The only ECU I've had firmware updates consistently break things are Haltech. The only catch can I've purchased that didn't fit in its advertised spot was from ATP. So forth and so on... Moral of the story, doesn't matter where it's from. Do your research beforehand and stick with products and companies you've trusted in the past.    @joshuaho96 If you want it done right, do it yourself.
    • Something coarse-ish. 180 is good.
    • I was surprised to see all the quick Jack models at the same prices on there. But yeah, grabbing one at 20% off would be great.
