Look at www.prestigemotorsport.com.au as he list the cars as well that come from www.japanautodirect.com who send it out to a lot of Brokers.

Accident damaged cars are not allowed to come in under RAWS, no matter how you read it a replaced rear qtr is structial damage as only 25 mil is allowed.

Make sure you know who is complying the car and if they will comply a car that has panel damage as a lot are knocking them back.

One guy just went through this on a 32 GTR and RAWS couldnt verify it would pass till the incoming vehicle report was done before complying it.

In the end he just sold the car in Japan after owning it since April.

They complied my last car under the old scheme too. No dramas and none of the BS of 'extra this' and 'extra that', that I was expecting after speaking to others who had stuff complied around the place. I'd give them a go, its' a shame I couldn't have bought mine through them but they didn't buy back then, as all the headaches I had were with buying and transporting.

      Sounds like it is rotational in the driveline. CV? Tailshaft CB? Also.....didn't you just pay to have that bit painted and put on the car?

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yeah, when I dialled my idle down, given how much time I spent idling at the lights in traffic on my daily commute, the effect on overall fuel consumption was absolutely noticeable.

      Emissions, fuel consumption, heat, noise, etc. most likely.

      For me at least the reason why it bothers me is because it's indicative of a deeper problem. And that will nag at me forever. Especially because I have tailpipe emissions testing + evap leak testing every 2 years.

      WELP. I went to the track, and I suppose it went okay because any time you can drive home is okay. You may notice the car is not on the circuit in this picture. It was about 35C day out in Benalla which means the track was approximately the surface of the sun, probably. Good things, car did not overheat but it _was_ warmer than when I had done track days in similar heat before, I think, I'm not sure - I can't quite remember. Coolant got to ~105 via the ECU after 20-30 minutes of belting it in said heat. Oil got up to 145C in one instance which is pretty crazy due to oil cooler. Pressures were fine. I seem to remember this not getting quite so high before the vents. More HMMMM'ing to be done. On the subject of HMMM'ing, can anyone identify the sounds in the video below, you will know which ones I mean: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uj3BkI2cbTc I included some 'normal' sound as a reference for the first minute or so. The microphone in this instance was where the license plate is. It stopped working later in the day which is why my "best example of a lap video (not produced)" had internal audio - Isn't hearable from inside the car. I don't mean the chirping of the un-bedded/badly bedded track brakes which you can only hear while braking... Thoughts, brains trust?
