Got any good pics of the new ride height @Proto Z ?
Only really this one at the moment.
I'll get some more - it's just in at Nissan ATM for the 1000km check (and hopefully artificial engine noise delete)



Speaking of which, I'm talking with Rob Bliss Exhausts at the moment about a 3" active valve exhaust. They've got an infinity with a VR30 in sometime in the 1st week of December, and will have a listen to it raw to see what it needs.

Quarantine, customs and all other types of government requirements.
They are just cars in a queue.
I would say 2 weeks is pretty quick.

Just be happy if you are one that does …the rest of us are still waiting. Most likely be two years since I put my money down before I get it

Hi Folks, long time no post. My manual Proto is on the G97G Grand Legacy, which just docked at Port Kembla. Due for delivery into the Canberra dealer on 2 Dec, and me on 9 Dec. Drove a yellow manual coupe in Melb a couple of weeks back. Car has lots of personality, but gearbox/engine/suspension combo not as refined as expected. Maybe just that car…but suspect not. Looks awesome though, and overtaking power in 3rd is super strong.

Surely by now some performance models should start turning up or at least those that ordered very early should start to get some notificatons, if they are shipping manual Protos then are the gearbox issues resolved ?
