Yeh as Howie said.........and then a S1 is pretty cheap these days also. Just remember when buying a car to check the service history and to get a check done on the car to make sure it's mech A1!

Yeah ruffly the price i was thinking for a dealer one for the s2.

Was going to come down to boostworks the other week and have a watch of peoples cars on the dyno, work nights though :P so never got up in time.

Was gonna get inpecta car to do a check when i find a car i like, does boostworx do that sort of stuff as well ?

Yeh you should have come down for a look, we were still there after lunch also!

You might wanna give Shaun a call about that, I'm sure he could, but he is quite busy these days and i don't know what he would charge for that sorta thing!

Boostworx do it, its ~$95 but theres usually a 2 week waiting list as hes a busy guy. I got mine checked at tillbrooks for $100 with a days notice. Wasn't the most thorough check but they did a compression test which was the main thing I wanted.

Had a look around the car yards today was interesting lol , couple of nice ones in redline and sinergy. Weird that redline seems to paint the back part and wheel arches of nearly all the cars they have there, worries me a bit :) Is this a major prob or in the end if mechs look at it and its ok, dont stress about it ?

Sinergy had a nice white s2, had a clear plastic skyline badge on the boot thought they were all ment to be colour coded on the s2's ?

i wouldnt worry about the painted wheel arches and stuff mine came like that from a dealer... also 2 secconds arround the corner from tilbrooks is a little import yard hes got a couple of nice lines go say hello to him hes a very nice chap too

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
