Hands Up all the Aussies

[MattJ2020]

Have we got a list of VIN’s so see who has the earlier build in Australia?

What license plate holder using?

I'm using the flow rz34 mounts direct to plate.

Tho I would like it a bit higher so might get their plate bracket as well.

Tried the autobarn plate holder but way to flimsy think would snap at speed so never installed.

That's a really clean look. It seems like it might work for a US plate as well. Any idea if it does?

Maybe this one: https://flowbrackets.com.au/products/vic-nsw-qld-tas-usa-plate-number-plate-bracket

It's pretty adjustable so would fit many plate types.

Chatted with the fine folks at flowbrackets. This does not work well for US plates, which is a bummer.

One more reason not to move to USA. Got it.

Down to 2 reasons to move there.

Right turn on red. I really like this one.
No front plate states.

And, even in states where a front plate is required, enforcement may be lax, so if you're willing to take the risk...

The right turn on red thing can be fun. The Z is easily able to accelerate up to the speed of oncoming traffic.

C'mon over!

Yeah I know plenty of people in other states where it is "required" and never been pulled over. Figure it's only cops who haven't met their quota for tickets that week or really bored ones that would actually pull someone over for it.

As far as the right turns on red I am pretty sure I have made people *gasp* when I pull out in front of them then they sigh of relief when I GO!

I work for a US company so they have "suggested" it many a time, I have done all I can to avoid.

mainly as our offices are in Utah, nope it snows.
or San Francisco Bay area, everything is too expensive and screw that traffic.

if I could do it remote and be somewhere like Tuscan maybe, but if I'm remote anyhow they might as well leave me in AU and pay me less.

I've got a list of Zs in Qld. A couple are the press cars from the launch which are pretty low / early VINs

Another recall.. this time incorrect routing of wiring harness. 822 VINs in here from 2022-2023.

[MattJ2020]

So 822 cars have been sold here in Aus? Plus the ones after 2023 into this year.

5000 or so have been sold in Japan to date.

 

[Hernandooo]

I've seen 3 or so Nismos in the Ferntree Gully dealership. Not soo much of the performance models, unless they were hidden somewhere

Mines on the lsit so the 2024 cars are included in this.

the last VIN on the list has the same compliance date as mine March 24 so guessing the batch mine came over in was the last to have the issue.

doing some hand scanning on vicroads site:
JN1GBAZ34A0220245
Compliend in May 2024 is not on the list.


from what I can gather the ones:

JN1GBAZ34A0200XXX
are MY22/MY23

JN1GBAZ34A0220XXX
are the MY24 cars plus Nismo's
