He had the export certificate

This can be easily fudged unfortunately, but you have a better chance it's genuine than most.

Maintenance as always is to drop all fluids on arrival, and change all filters.

100k seems more legit compared to some being offered for sale around the country.

I've been to see about 4 here in Syd, and even with export certificates you can tell the k's aren't legitimate.

I saw one with a certificate, 2008 model, exp cert had last 2 reg checks in japan, last one was 2 years ago and the car today had only 10000 more k's.

This car had less than 60ks on the clock, but the seatbelt wouldn't retract easily by itself.

Its not a big thing, but I've had Nissans with close to 200ks and no issue with the belts.

Its little things like this that give it away for me.

Giving myself another month or so to find one locally, otherwise will be importing.

As for price, depends on the overall condition. Have been following the auctions for a while, and an 08 manual can still go for anywhere between $23k to $33k landed and complied depending on the condition. Autos for a type S seem to be sitting around low $20k's for a decent one.

For what it's worth, it's not entirely impossible. Mine is a 2009 model, had 22,000km on the clock when I imported it beginning of 2012 and I'm only up to 37,846km after owning it for three years.

Just depends on the use it gets.

Decided not to go with the black one after seeing a review about the importer. It was horrible. Also talk to a mate who used to be import cars who had dealing with this importer who also do compliance. According to my mate this guy is the go to man if need to wind back the clock.

Put a deposit on a 09 S 7 speed auto. Fresh import with dereg papers and all other docs. 20 inch Rays and blitz coilvers with 82000km on it. I'm happy

Could you please explain, how can you fudge the Japanese dereg certificate?

Keeping in mind that the dereg papers are issued by Japanese authorities it would be too fiddly trying to forge them for sake of $20K car. Unless the Jap owner had been winding down the clock on the regular basis before every mileage check.

It's all about the freshly imported cars. Ones they've been in Ozz for a while you can't trust anyone.

I've read something like:

- Dereg the car first

- Do whatever dirty tricks

- Re-reg the car

- Dereg again, and use this "latest" cert as proof

Therefore it is always best to compare both the auction paper with dereg certificate and (if you can) back track the records for one year or two

Hope someone can verify this?

      RB20 in need of modest love injection

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      As you're looking at using a Link ECU, then large injectors are not a problem. But there's not really any need to go 1000s on an RB20 unless you're planning >>600HP on E85, which would seem unlikely. There are other options for injectors. The Xspurt ones are available from a number of places and you can get them in the mid 600s and 725cc, which is probably a sensible place to be. These are all EV14 based. If you are not using the stock AFM (at all, which would be the case with a Link) then a large turbo intake pipe to suit the ATR turbos is not an obstacle, so you should use one instead of a highflow. Results will be better.

      RB20 in need of modest love injection

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Hey guys,  I'm after some advice and this here is the best place to get it imo. I was a member a looong time ago under another account, with a lost email address. Its nice to jump back on and see some of the same names still giving good advice.  I mothballed my car when i moved to perth in 2013, and after getting towed across the nullabor a few times it has officially done more km's on a trailer than under its own power. Now that i have started the process of tidying up and modifying it, i see the fruit available (and the fruiterers selling the produce) is different than back in the day. hence my questions, as i used to 'know' what to get and now, i'm not so sure. Engine wise the car (92 gtst) has a walbro 255, k+n, fmic, cam gears and and turbo back 3"exhaust. Wish list is a Hypergear high flow or ATR43G1, Link G4x and some newer injectors before a tune up. My goals are modest, only low 200's power wise. i know i could achieve this with less, but i've been swapping out old for new where i can. Every cooling hose has been replaced, along with mani gaskets, WP, thermostat and radiator, fuel pump and timing belt, tensioner and idler, and i rebuilt the steering rack. Regarding the injectors, the fruiterers all seem to sell what used to be considered quite large injectors. There are a lot of options for bosch 1000cc EV14's, and i would like to know if that is a suitable choice for my build. Is modern injector design good enough to run these at the low duty cycles that i likely would be? is there a downside to running a too large injector these days? or, would there be an upside to running a smaller injector at higher duty cycle? I can see that there are smaller injectors still available, but the ones i have seen specifically marketed for RB's are pretty large (see: https://golebysparts.au/collections/fuel-rail-injector-kits/products/nissan-rb20-fuel-rail-bosch-980cc-1150cc-injectors-turbosmart-fpr800-regulator-kit), and i dont know enough about them to say one not marketed for RB's would fit or not. I have searched the forums, and amongst all the posts on older tech, I did see gtsboy recommend EV14's, but no size was mentioned... again, i'm not clear on if the smaller size bosch injectors are also EV14's as they do look similar.  also, if someone can recommend a tuner familiar with RB's in the Geelong or West Melbourne area i'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance guys. Cheers, Rowdy

      R33 GTR lift points for hoist

      FWIW the depth of the groove in the rubber pad is not super essential, the blocks are rubber and squish a bit. If you are worried an angle grinder will make a deeper groove quick smart

      I mean, if you were to move the jacking points away from the original location, that is, away from the wheels and closer to the centreline of the car, then it will be more likely to overbalance and tip off the supports. Same as we talked about before. I was talking about moving for-aft. If the sill is bent outward or inward, then the car would obviously look unstraight from the outside. Hopefully that hasn't happened either. Again, you can do comparative measurements from the chassis rails to see if there is much deflection.

      Can you elaborate what you mean with your first sentence? I meant move as in the bulge kinda seemed like it got pulled "outward" meaning it got pulled down and to the side with the jacking rail itself, so the load bearing bulge now sits lower than usual and is not level with the sill on the other side of the jack point. Either that or the jacking rail just got pushed in a good bit.
