Most Ferraris in Japan are left hand drive , very few are right hand drive .

The car must be older than 1988 to able to comply here .

P.M if you like na di'll put you on to someone in japan that will do everything for you .

i already spoke to the guys at jspec imports, the guy i spoke to said the 1989-1995 model ferrari f348 models were eligible for import,and i have the number for the workshop in sydney that complies them. so i think i will stick with them as they look like they know what theytalking about

This is the link to who does what and Modena are doing RHD only Ferraris which are usually out of Singapore or other RHD only countrys.

A few have been brought in as Personal Imports out the Gulf and they were not the best.

PM me your email address and I can get the dealers/workshops in Sydney to contact you as it isnt as simple as buying a Skyline, they have the contacts as they have been doing it for years.

Just don't buy one from the Gulf area as they are they are not the best to say the least, one Viper that came in had 7 different colours of paint as a new colour each year made the neighbours think it was a new one,

There was an importer's website that specialized in many exotics from Singapore, Hong Kong and other RHD countries. I've been trying to find it again but nobody seems to remember.

I guess my post is pointless, but such an importer/exporter agent does exist! :(

      There's probably an underlying issue with the A/C system too. I recently fixed mine, now it's fully control by the Haltech and car's factory HVAC controller  Have a squiz here:

      And by the way, I've also checked the ECU diagnostic numerous times and got a bad O2 sensor code and initially an Ignition Primary code, which is why I replaced the O2 sensor and all the ignition components (coil packa, plug and loom). No codes have been coming up lately despite the ongoing issue.

      Hey pber13, unfortunately still no luck. At this point the following has been done with little or no success: - Spark plugs replaced, gapped to 0.8mm - Splitfire coilpacks installed to replace originals - Replaced Ignition Coil/Coilpack harness with a new genuine nissan one - New fuel filter - Replaced AFM/MAF sensor - Injectors have been thoroughly cleaned with an online flush (without removing) - Upper engine and inlet decarbed - blew tons of black smoke out, cleared the carbon deposits from the top of the engine and exhaust.  - IACV removed and thoroughly cleaned with carburettor cleaner - O2 sensor replaced with new and genuine one -  Smoke test revealed no vacuum leaks - Healthy compression test of 160psi across all 6 cylinders Overall the car does run a lot smoother now, no backfires between gear shifts like it did originally... but the rough idle when warmed up is still there. It may not even be a misfire but simply a rough idle. Seems crazy to me that so many people have had this issue and seemingly no one has gotten to the bottom of it, or at least never bothered to post if they did! Hope you have more luck than I did pber13, I'm at a point now where I'm just going to try to ignore it unless it gets worse. Would love to fix it but I've genuinely run out of ideas of what it could be.

      I got the full frenchys kit too. Really awesome kit. Easy to install my only complaint was the hardlines I think could be routed differently (I modified mine) but I realise the kit needs to suit multiple applications. This was the hard lines before I modified them. They were touching the wastegate pipe. I ended up reducing the distance between firewall and first bend. The made it so they tucked along the frame rail.

      Deeve, I don't suppose that you've made any progress on this? My Stagea has the exact same problem, and just like you, I've read through as much as I can online, with no real progress. My car isn't throwing any codes at all, which is a little frustrating. I've changed plugs, checked the wiring and harness. A new MAF gets here next week, but I'm not hopeful it will solve the issue.
