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.

    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
    • thanks GTSboy. My confusion at the moment is i am trying to locate the ignition, ECU battery power and the ECU negative The closest thing i can find is the for the S15 on Page 8 of the Wiring Specialties web page https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9F33_M_GgENQnZ6STMxVmVNd1E/view?resourcekey=0-eZ4nNRwRoqa1qvKlWWHm8A I cannot find the same diagram for the R33 RB25DET Series 2 dash plug pin out.... Do you know what the Pins? or know where i can find the same pinout diagram for the RB dash plug? Thanks for the advice on the box... i like a 6 speed so might be on the lookout or the box now.. a topic of discussion for another post...
    • Will have a look at that. I cant see any leaks 
    • Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.
    • Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
