Hi guys,

Im hoping someone can shed some light on this. One of my close mates who had worked in HK will come back to Australia this June. He has bought a 2000 Mercedez S350 (37,000 kms used) over there and wants to bring it to Sydney, Australia.

The only concern is how much of tax would be imposed. Can anyone with any importing experience tell me how much it would cost?

Any help appreciated.

Cheers,

LCT is payable at a rate of 25% for the value over $57,009. Read the customs guide to importing a motor vehicle. Explains the costs pretty well, and how to value the car: http://www.customs.gov.au/webdata/resource...dePrivOwnMV.pdf

Add to that all the other statutory costs associated with importing a vehicle, and assuming he satisfies requirements for a personal import.

    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
