On the 2 of November I picked up my freshly imported r32 gts-t skyline.

After previously owning a n/a r32 track car i can't believe I stuffed around with a non turbo for that long!!

I imported the car through motor man imports just off the pacific highway in Logan. Paul was so helpful there keeping me updated on every little thing, would recommend them any day of the week.

The car is amazing to drive arriving with a full roll cage and lots of other goodies.

The engine is a baby with only 77000km on it. Really the car is as stock as a rock but that's the way I wanted it, all up only coasting me 13k with full mod plate for the cage rego everything! Cudos to Paul again at motorman.

When the car first arrived :)

I have so many plans for this car I don't know where to begin.

First I got myself a pair of 18 inch wolf high performance wheels from a good friend of mine Carlo at csr performance parts.

These wheels stuck well out passed the guard roughly about 35mm so that of course led me to buying a full wide body kit from jase down t adrenaline auto styling. This guy has built some amazing drift cars and couldn't wait to begin work with him

Before the wide body

After all this love and attention the car was getting it still managed to find one terrible driver in the wet and yes some stupid learner decided to run into me !!!post-102647-13630421949239_thumb.jpg

Soooooo my pride and joy was sitting in my garage for a week in pain, luckily because the little amazing japs welded a floor brace and numerous struts the car only needed a new door and with the widebody job about to begin it really didn't matter!

So now I pick up the car on Friday the 15th with its banging new paint job and a new wide body kit, new coils are in the car and a dyno is booked in at mercury motorsports on the 21 of march.

Ill keep everyone updated!

Sorry about the shit post to new the sau!!!

Yeah heard only bad things bout mercury mste had his 34 serviced there. They scratched the side of it from front to back, didn't put the sump plug in probably so drained all the oil out over night. On another note welcome.

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
