Yes they will c AUS roads i think.

They are still a young car, just as we have seen

increased demand for R34's I think we will c the same

for V35 gradually, maybe compliance next year? But

I wouldn't bet on it.

They don't seem to be as sort after as R32-34 in the import

market yet. Until that happens I don't expect RAWS to comply

them. Many people (not me) don't like there Euro style shape.

I could see myself possibly getting a 3.5 sedan in the future.

Thier shape has grown on me slowly.

The V35 is a completely new lineage for Nissan, I haven't seen very many parts that swap over. That's the big bonus for R32/R33/R34, there is soooo much available, from the exotic/expensive to the generic/good value. All tastes are catered for.

The big killer is that there is no HERO car, no GTR, no GODZILLA, nothing to pass on the charisma.

:( cheers :(

so there is a workshop currently in the process to gain approval for them?

i reckon the coupe, lowered with rims and the little rear spoiler look the goods :( Saw them on the road when i was in canada/usa last... changed my perception of them once i saw them in the flesh..

i think i'd still get someone to fabricate up a tailight surround so that it leaves 2 afterburners... only see the stove-tops when braking :(

Its kind of a dead model in a way.. considering the V36 is meant to be a totally different beast and I think different shape to boot.. at least it will have the GTR at the top, which might inject some life into it as a desireable car again.

I'm really wondering if any of you actually KNOW the status.

There are about 5 workshops all over Australia claiming that they will have it soon. Some say a week, others a month.

I guess they are all dealing with a government dept. so they probably do not know themselves.....

Next Week, Next Month, in a few days....

Do you sense my frustration

Does anyone know why it is taking soooooo loooong....

WON'T BE LONG NOW GTS

ONE OF MY MATES IS HOPING TO BE APPROVED BY CHRISTMAS...

The hold up is the seatbelts as they havent got VW written on them so the belts had to be sent to Melbourne for testing, I have 2 copys of it coming to sort out for a couple of workshops.

The sooner the better for everybody, got a 2004 EVO 8 MR sitting in the show room and it will be through in about 6 to 8 weeks, I have about ten people who came in and have asked to be put on the expressions of interest list after one week.

I think compliancing is now avaliable thro Nizmo Pty Ltd, Eagle Farm in QLD. I found it on the DOTARS site. http://raws.dotars.gov.au/rawswebpublic/RAWPubSearch.asp

if ya wanna search models and workshops for compliancing

G'day Fellow,

I'm a Noob with Skyline. However, having seen the V35 on the internet. It is slowly growing on me and would be interested to know what will the market going rate be when it is release into the Australian market?

Also on the side note, what would the service be like? Could you be serviced by Nissan Australia?

If fellow SAUers could assist me with the above mentioned queries, I would greatly appreciate it! ;)

I have a Question in regards to import. As we all know the V35 compliance is not yet available. Are we allow to import a 2 door V35 into Australia and leave it in our garage until the compliance plate is ready? Is the car allow to enter Australia's shore and allow you to collect it from the port? What will the custom require ?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks.

u can but with the risk of it being stolen, burnt etc ? no thnx

well... a RAW has to submit an import approval yes???

so i guess you have to get the workshop you will eventually get ur compliance done at, to submit for an import approval. Could be a problem if they don't want to do V35's.... maybe you can switch to another workshop? i dunno exactly how it works but was under the impression u def need a RAW to do the import approval bit.

    • The previous switchover point was 501mv. The stock value is like ~360. They now were idling at about ~880. The thing is, most people get a false lean condition. I am getting false rich conditions. This isn't a quirk of terminology, most cam upgraders get awful fuel economy because the O2's read false lean and add fuel - Mine are attempting to aggressively subtract fuel.
    • So... the whole idea was to upgrade the power of the motor from stock. The motor I bought with the gearbox had 'some' stuff done to it in the past, but it wasn't as well thought out/what I had wanted to do. The stock heads typically are a big restriction on LS's and need porting to unlock quite a lot of power. You can then go a bit silly with aftermarket castings to get more, aftermarket intake manifolds for a little more, and then porting those for more. <- We are here. Nobody in Australia really goes down this path (for some reason). It might* make 3kw or something more than doing things the tried and true path for 10X the cost. So that's probably why - I wouldn't even recommend it to people, the money was and is likely better spent on just CNC'ing the stock heads and putting a 6.3L stroker kit in. I didn't want to go down the 'normal' path and then think: But if I'd just done a bit more - I could have had a slightly better result. I assumed the heads were running out of flow and it always annoyed me - Turns out the previous installer advanced the cam 6 degrees so this is likely why it was coming on earlier and running out of puff earlier than advertised. The body panels were just lack of planning/no information on this anywhere on the internet and the fact they came out different was annoying. From test fitting the guard it appears I could have gotten away with GTR guards only, but I got the bonnet and raisers and everything else as well for a pretty decent package deal.
    • So you had a car that by all accounts drove well and survived track days, and that was looking great after months of being stuck at a paint shop. Some might call that a finished project. But you decided this is not quite right. So now the car does not run anymore. And the engine doesn't fit anymore. And the body parts don't match anymore. But, this is progress somehow. Greg, I think your subconscious does not like you and does not want you to drive this car. (I know I know, this whole escalation was not intended, but man, what a rollercoaster)
    • Yeah, but the narrowband is truly narrowband. So you take it out of the linear zone and it is effectively nonsense. And that linear zone is so literally narrow, that nonsense is not very far away. Unless they are flicking back and forth across the stoich point, for real, under actual control, they can't be trusted for anything except entertainment value.
