Well I finally got my 97 gts-t on the road, I waited about 4 months for the import process, man the waiting sucked ass. The car is almost spotless inside and out, very good condition. I am one hundred percent happy with my purchase.

one annoying this is that I got pulled over and breathalysed (I was in my datsun sunny not the skyline) and blew .049 that was re calculated to .042 which would be fine If I wasn’t on my P plates (I am 23 have only recently got my licence and have been driving for 9 months) I am waiting for my court summons and will no doubt lose my licence for three months. soooooo gay :D do you have to redo your full licence like redo your L's and log books and all that? I bloody well hope not, it better just be the actual driving test. Another 2 years on P's is a total pain, they really go hard on this sort of thing.

On a good note my insurance is only $1600 which is like half of what some friends pay for a car worth less and with fewer cylinders. But who knows what it will go up to when i report my DD after I’ve been to court.

I havnt taken any pics of it here in WA yet but here is the pic of it in jap.

Well the point of the thread is to inform people that may be interested in importing that you can get good clean cars and you can get a good price on insurance.

And perhaps also to say don’t drink and drive. You will loose your freaken licence.

I dont actually lose my licence until i go to court so I get to drive around for a while.. :D

Is it bad for your car if you hit your rev limiter in first gear a few times?

that's pretty bloody good fane!

stix, congrats on your car. hope you enjoy it for three months......

You've gotta feel for the guy. He would have only had one or two drinks to have blown that. It's under 0.05 ffs.

when I'm old and on P's again, I'll remember to only have one lemonade wih a dash of gold.

i know the feeling, i was pulled over one night (on my p's) after i had been drinking earlier on in the night and had been on water for quite a while, i was very very sober!!! but the cops followed me down the road, turn their lights on and pulled me over. it was my first ever breathalyser and i kept stufing it up, the cop got really agro with me, i was doing exactly what he told me to do but i didn't work... then i decided i would do it my own way and it worked... i was like .003 under the p plater limit.... soooooo lucky!!!

    • I love the undertray, especially the flappy bit for easier access for serving I'm thinking of fabing up one at work for the MX5 while I still have access to the metal shop at work with a guillotine and press brake Whilst removing the plastic undertray on the MX5 isn't to hard, I love the idea of a 2 bolt flap as opposed to removing the whole thing 
    • Great thank you for that. Yeah that is the bumper and spoiler it still has i just hadn't heard of it being referred to as a aero form bumper before. Really appreciate your help.
    • A little progress; I took the opportunity of an oil change to take a sample for oil analysis, will be interesting to see how it was treated for its first 125,000klm (I know how it has been treated since :rofl:) I went with 5w40 and will see what that does for oil pressure at higher revs. Also fitted the Z1 front undertray....a little more sturdy than the plastic factory one (although I suspect it won't stop a tree stump ) Nicest thing about it really is the 2 bolt "service panel"....a gift to the oil changer compared to removing 14 bolts holding the factory tray.
    • I think a scissor lift is better/faster in most cases, but I guess it does obstruct access to the centre of the car? BTW I weighed the quick jack. 3.5 tonne model is 50kg for each side. So yes, portable, but not with one finger
    • Not a huge update because still waiting for some fittings for the intake. But I did corner weigh the car, its enough to make a GTR driver cry at 1163kg (race ready except no fuel)  Sorry about the terrible pics but I think they are readable With 70kg driver
