hey dude, i just bought my r34 gtr from sydney a week ago and its pretty easy to get everything done.

basically i would get an inspection done unless you are gonna go down and inspect it yourself, a professional inspection cost about 300bux from companies like VIP automotive whom can also arrange transport.

shipping from syney to melbourne usinf CEVA logistics (formally TNT) cost about 500bux for an open truck but generally will incur some stone damage on the way so make sure you get the insurance with it as my car got its winshield and front bar damaged which im getting fixed soon.

otherwise pay the extra for a closed truck container which is made for luxury and race cars but is more pricey.

fill out a transfer of ownership form and get the seller to do the same and go to vicroads here (you will require a RWC) pay the stamp duty and other fees and your done!!

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
