SA Wasteland?

[Fishpaste~]

that looks killer man. Who'd you go through for the importing?

I've imported it myself, was introduced to an Adelaide bloke, who works for a dealer over there, while he was back here for Christmas and went from there. Hes actually part owner of Kansai Automotive, and his family is heavily involved with the car scene here in Adealide. Not sure if i should give out his contact details as hes basically in direct competition to SAU sponsors, but if anyone wants help importing a car by themselfs let me know and i should be able to guide you along nicely =D

and thanks everyone else, hopefuly i'll be able to go for my first cruise and meet lots more of you on the 28th/29 of this month =)

Thats HAWT!!! Fishpaste

How long did it take to come over??

I might be looking at importing one myself, as cant really find anything I like here already

[Madaz]

does importing a rally/race only car cost less or does it only cost less because you dont have to comply it

like im thinking a full drift spec ceffy

doh, always thought it was safer to tune on a low-30deg day.

Not sure if Shaun shares the same view. Its only an observation I've made through my own multiple tunes, friends cars and how mine reacted on the stock ecu when pushing 1bar. Consistently the same. Cold Tune FTW, hot day tune FTL.

BF2.. I haven't been on much as the computer as crapped it.

Spending too much on the car as of late so the computer can hold off.

It was purchased late in January (but had already been passed in at auction once), so from when the car was first found to when it arrived was less than 3 months, and it'll be just over 3 months when its on the road =)

if your looking for someone to help you find one, let me know and i'll get you his contact details.. in the middle of writing up a big "how to import guide" ATM so that may also help you out =)

yeah madaz, if you take a look at the import101.com import calculator (you have to sign up to get access to it) you can see that all the SEVS and rego and other related costs to the whole getting it on the road bit are $0. so that is where you get the savings from, but from memory you do have to have a CAMS licence of some paticular type to import under race and rally.

what was even more amazing was that i was having tea with the dealer here in adelaide on a tuesday (as hes originally from here and was back in adealide for christmas) and that friday he was ringing me to get the go ahead for the car!!!

so its almost literaly 3 months from the decision to buy the skyline to getting it =)

[Madaz]

getting my coilovers installed very soon about to go pick my mate up and go get some hoist time

[Cubes]

Madaz... Do the coil overs with a trusty hydraulic jack and get a mate to step/put weight on the stub axle while you bolt it all up. Easy peazy

[Madaz]

well couldnt do anything cause the rears are different in my cat to GTR but rang Ryan and getting it all sorted next week will let you know how it goes next weekend

[Cubes]

Bugger... So it runs the GTST rear end?

[Madaz]

not sure cubes he said he would swap it with gtst but gtst have hicas too so im not sure whats different about mine

but he was willing me me to come and see him tomorrow to sort it out

can highly reccomend ISC on after sales service and i wasnt the orriginal purchaser very good buisness ethics

I know you might all call me a geek for this but I don't care! Just came back from dinner with Avery Brooks (Captain Sisko) and Barry Jenner (Admiral Ross) from Star Trek: DS9. Both awesome fellas, had a great night, just had to share... and yes, I'm a trekkie!!!
