willttqs Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Am interested. Does it have a cat 1 alarm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John tarantula Posted April 16, 2013 Author Share Posted April 16, 2013 Not sure, it has the standard Nissan Alarm and immobilisor if that's Cat 1? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidnightRacer Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Do you know where it was imported from? Headlight Washers and indicators on the left tell me its not a JDM import? along with UK clocks and UK spec rear bumper (although these could have been changed) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John tarantula Posted April 16, 2013 Author Share Posted April 16, 2013 guessing from Japan? Has main delaer handbook etc so looks like the changed absolutely everything to UK GT spec. Only way to tell it's an import is the VIN number and V5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidnightRacer Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Very odd. Even the interior switches are UK spec ones, my JDM is different again. absolutely nothing about this car looks like JDM! either way, good for the new owner, it looks 100% UK Spec.

I agree, It looks like a U.K car to me. It would have been a big job, and expensive too, to change everything to U.K spec. I mean changing the front bumper would have been expensive on its own but fitting the headlight washer system would have been a nightmare. Maybe it was imported from Ireland or Guernsey/Jersey.

MidnightRacer Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 And incase we are running the risk of getting way off topic it looks like a hugely respectable price for a car of this spec! Good luck with the sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John tarantula Posted April 16, 2013 Author Share Posted April 16, 2013 haha thanks guys, only info I have is that it was imported in 2006 and i think I'm the third owner since then (need to double check) The engine numebr is a JDM one (Z33...) and it comes up on insurance, V5 and hpi as an import so guessing it was brought over by a dealer for someone with very deep pockets when UK ones were hard to get? Either way is full UK spec and they're all designed the same anyway i know JDM ones are cheaper (I think because of lower spec, which this doesn't have) hence the lower price.

Ceejay29 Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 I agree, it doesn't look like a JDM import, which is probably a plus regarding the sale. You could check the sun visors, my import is plagued with Japanese code. Another dead give away. A lot of car for the money, GLWTS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarnie Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 :surrender: :surrender: The main/only giveaway is the fact it's on a 52 plate, UK cars started on 53 plates....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John tarantula Posted April 16, 2013 Author Share Posted April 16, 2013 thanks Liam. And on another note getting our house keys Friday!!! Need a big old V8 to fill my pimp drive reminds me to add feedback to your topic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetSet Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 :surrender: :surrender: The main/only giveaway is the fact it's on a 52 plate, UK cars started on 53 plates....... Well, there is that . Some research shows that the car was first registered in Feb 2003 and registration in The U.K took place in Dec 2005. Interesting that the vehicle duty is £225, not the normal £270, do JDM's have lower emissions? Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John tarantula Posted April 16, 2013 Author Share Posted April 16, 2013 Yeah you're right, just checked V5 and was 2005, not 2006. my memory is rubbish! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete No, they just registered as PLG vehicles instead so get cheaper tax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
