Importin A R34 Gtr

[R34GTTSKY]

hey guys

need peoples opinion. i'm looking at importing a R34 GTR later on and wanna know is it better to import it privately from japan myself or wether i should go thru a company?

i've heard both good n bad things that could happen to both sides of import it privately or thru company.

also is it hard to fish around for a bayside blue coloured gtr?

if you import it privately are you intending to go to japan yourself to check it out first?

no, it'll only be pics . i know it's a risk not looking at the car first =S

[sidewayssam]

i think that you should go through a company if you arent viewing it first, companies like imports101 have people in japan who inspect the veichles before you purchase them, importing privatly you might receive a car that has had the odometer wound back excessively and been in previous accident. plus if you go through and import place you should get warranty, do you know if there is much price difference from privatly importing or through a company?

[SLIPPERY]

can they even rewind an electronic odometer like on the 34?

[sidewayssam]

mmmmmm good point i didnt think of that haha i dont think they can, unless its new dash gauges n stuff

there are some bayside blue ones over east at good prices and a 300$ ticket there to check them out is lot cheaper and would be quicker to comply to WA i think as well.

You cant wind back digital displayed km unless you swap the dash I think and there arent may GTR 34's around so I think you'll find most later GTR's have genuine km...perhaps. Personally I dont think I could buy a car thats worth $50k plus and not even look at it

id go with autoworx...

Got my car through www.j-spec.com.au and Ben Lippa sorts out everything for ya! Just sit back and relax and wait for your phone to ring ALOT!!

But for 1k, he does alot of work for you.... all paperwork, inspection reports etc... pretty much everything to get you through the whole process... negative side.. took 3months to arrive at docks from payment date!!

No regrets though!!!

x2 for Imports101. Very happy with there service.

I wouldn't even buy a car from eastern states without it having been looked over, let alone from overseas.

For the record digital dashes can be altered. It was notorious in the Toyota Soarers. Apparently you can connect to them via a laptop and reset the display! These were hard to detect for auctioneers, only bad reinserting of dash and console left behind evidence of tampering. As for the R34, not sure?

+1 on Imports 101. My r34 was imported by them but I only bought it through them when it landed and was looking for it's first Oz owner.
