I prefer the customized edition

that is a fair call how hard is it getting one out of japan?

I don't know yet, depends how much of a hard time I get from customs. Will take about at least a month.

I will be posting a lot of pictures when it arrives

Go figure finally saw a rz34 in the wild today.

Only took going to Japan!
Less than 30 min after arriving spottoed a yellow one out of train window.

Hopefully bodes well for rest of trip.

So a week in Japan but mostly work.

Did hit up Nissan crossing and Nismo factory in some down time so grabbed a few goodies.

Anybody in the Melbourne area recommend a tuner?

I've been trying to reach Chequered Tuning for a couple of weeks to get my Z tuned, since they're the only ones i know of that have ecutek, and got no reply or response from them.

Same boat here, emailed them about 3 weeks back and haven't heard anything which is strange as they used to be quite prompt with their emails.

Well, their loss I guess. Just got booked in with Cosmic Performance, they have Ecutek, bit more pricy, but I need the tune done.

EDIT

I redact my statement, i got a booking with chequered tuning!

Yeah that's fair. Is there a reason for the sudden surge in places being booked out?
TruTrack Suspension was fully booked out too last month when I called them and only managed to squeeze in a slot

Curious to know how many Orange Z’s were imported and sold in Australia as well as Rosewood.

Rosewood will no longer be available from 2025.

I don't have Aus wide numbers, but I've been tracking QLD cars where I can.

Known-
0 Orange cars in QLD
2 Rosewood cars in QLD


I think I saw somewhere 2x Orange in Victoria.

On another note, any Australian owners getting a rattling noise from the B pillar back, on the LHD on abrasive highway type roads? The roads are newly paved but a lot of noise and vibration comes from the tarmac and now I’m getting a rattling noise. About 75kph to 100kph and over… even slowing down it happens until you hit smooth tar at an intersection for example on a highway…

I've got a rattling noise from the center console. Happened after I hit a pothole (before coilovers). I blame it on the endless amounts of potholes all over Victoria state

Bloody bird pooed on car when I was grabbing stuff out of garage on weekend.

Well good excuse for a rinse.

But did pick up a stone in the brakes on way home so need to find that bastard now.
