I know compliance is the same.. but the new scheme is now in effect. THis means any car inported under the old scheme will not be able to be complianced under the new scheme. I know someone who didnt realise this last month and has no option but to destroy the car or wreck it.

Hippy,

PM Me and i can go through all the wonderfull steps to getting your car through Regency Park...

N/A - If a car was brought in under the old system and was not fitted with a plate, the owner has the option to take it to a RAW and get it complyed... but you only have a year....

chris,

this is an unbiased view so please dont take it personal but ive looked at the vehicles avaliable on your site and compared those to vehicles avalible to import from prestige motorsports and there seems to be quite alot of differences in the asking price. Now this may be b/c your does not need bidding etc ect but ultimately my question is why so expensive when i can buy private or through a dealer. curious. btw i am thinking of importing a vehicle but am keeping my options open thus my query.

Nozila, first things first - love the picture mate.

Second - no offence taken bro, understand the enquiry.

To answer that, I would have to start by saying that Matrix Motorsport is mainly a compliance company and at the moment all of our efforts are to make sure that I can provide compliance for all vehicles ASAP.

The cars that we sell are complied ready to register in Aus, and all come with a warranty from our workshop. I employ 3 Trade Auto electritions and a Trade Mechanic so you know that the correctly qualified persons are changing your timing belt etc..

I don’t want to compare prices to Geoff (Prestige) I think he is a great guy and is doing a sensational job with Prestige. I am on his mailing list too and some of his cars are almost unbelievable at some of the prices he can secure!!!

I guess the big thing here my man is that we are the actual workshop who will import the car, free it from customs, comply it under the new RAW system, and hand over the keys. Dealing with one person is a definite advantage I think, and especially in this industry!

I know that alot of people are going to look at the dollars and cents of it all, but when you are buying a 20k+ car, there is soo much more to it than that....

I can help ya with your import mate, but first you will need to know the new laws and what we can bring in, what year, month etc....

I hope i have answered your post mate, its not easy to answer a question like that without offending anyone, but mate i did my best.

Cheers

Matrix Motorsport

chris,

thats exactly the sort of reply that I would like to hear. As i dont want to be in the dark once the import does actually arrive here, if you know what i mean. In regards to rob's answer, i also agree that you get what you pay for and thus am concerned with the prices that some importers are able to offer - makes you wonder how come the prices are that low but neverless tempted to buy it. I compare because as a consumer/potential customer its in my nature. having said this price is a major factor but after sales service, technical support etc etc basically the same service you would expect to receive after purchase of a good/service must not be forgotten. btw where did faz toyz go, wouldnt want to be a customer of them if i was importing a car and they suddenly closed down like that.

regards,

dooky.

    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
    • LOL well, lucky mine doesn't have some R shit on it. Around town, it handles so much better than the R33, R33 in the wet is pretty dangerous to the untrained hoon, especially with 13kg/mm front springs.
