Any chance one of these will ever come to Australia? Has anyone even seen one b4?

This nice piece of machinery has been discussed here before, but I doubt that most here have a big enough bank account to buy one new

Isn't their only like 5 being built?

There are only 20 being built and they are going for 20 million Yen i think from memory.

I have heard that one is on it's way to Sydney, will have to wait and see i guess.

There is a good chance we will see one in Oz eventually although don't hold your breath it could take a while.

There is only 2 Z-tune's built at the moment (press car and one customer car). They are built to order and there is a significant wait (3-5 months after you pay) until it is finished. I'm sure there's more on the wait list to be built though.

I have seen one and I know SW20-GT has also as we saw it at the same place (different days). It looks and sounds better than I could have imagined by seeing the press photos...

heres hopin'

If 1 were to come to Australia it wouldn't be until at least March next year (and that's if one is ordered today).

I'll echo what Sewid said, it is truly an incredible and amazing car. The 2.8L engine is so smooth and responsive you'd think it was a 2.6L. Brakes are phenomenal as is the handling and ride quality.

You really do have to see one in the flesh to appreciate the craftsmanship that goes into this car.

I think I heard Powerplay were gonna bring one in for a customer if they can get there hands on one, which I doubt.

What makes you doubt that?

[Mandingo]

I dont see why they couldnt, if you have an R34 you can send the car back for the Z-tune treatment. Although said car must be PC and less then 20K's I heard. imagine the cost but.

[Tosh]

Less than 30,000km's and also must meet Nismo's standards (i.e. no chassis damage or rust, Gearbox condition etc...)

It's a big expense/head ache for anyone in Australia to send their car to Nismo in Japan only to have it rejected by them But unfortunately that's the way it goes being in Australia

It would be simple and very possible for Powerplay to get one here for a customer (for a price of course). You don't need to own a GTR to begin with as Nismo can source one for you. Nismo are very happy to work with international buyers and have done it before for R-Tunes etc. Not a problem.

Maybe Im just pessimistic.

[**JaR**]

maybe, i mean god... if i had that much money to throw around i'd do it to have one in my garage

[Mulkers]

Yeah, thats right... powerplay have got one coming in... check out their website, theres a fair bit about it on there

[Tosh]

To set the rumours straight we are NOT bringing a Z Tune into the country at this stage. However we do have exclusive sale rights in Australia hence why it is on our website as a car available for sale

Hope that clears up the rumours

would these vehicles only be able to be complied for race/rally as wouldnt they be way too modified for sevs

[Dush]
