Strange thought getting em from jap, theres heaps more in america, not that hard to find in australia either, will set u back about 30k for a decent model 69 (top pic is a 69 S/SS i think) camaro or for around $15-20k u can get a crap condition one and restore it. And yeh, there are permits that let u drive left hand drive cars (cept u have to have a gay sticker on the bumper)

we've imported a few now... mainly for collectors. From the US and from japan. Although we do more corvettes than camaros.

They come in under the 1988 and prior rule. So compliance is minimal as far as mechanicals are concerned. If the car is over 30 years old you can keep it LHD and drive it on the road that way... but if its a younger car then it need to be converted to RHD, we have compliancers that can do that all for ya if need be.... albeit at a much higher price than the cost of compliance for a 30yo muscle car.

also do J-spec offer CIF or DDP terms?

or only free on board (FOB)??

Most cars are listed as FOB price because that's the more accepted industry standard however we will look after shipping and other parts of the process for you also - you can pay a CIF price if you want the car put on a ship and nothing else, but usually our clients pay FOB price up front and other costs as they are due throughout the process. If you wanted a rough quote for delivery to your door once the car lands in Australia then we can do that also.

Basically just let us know how much or how little of the process you want us to do for you and what you prefer to arrange yourself, we are very flexible.

Prices can vary a lot based on the car condition, obviously something that has been fully restored will cost a lot more than an average car that is showing it's age - you could spend anything from maybe $15,000 landed for a rough example through to $50,000 or more for something really quite stunning.

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
