my new car

[pentae]

Nice

[Richelieu]

usually they destroy them when they take em off

So that means that if i import a car with gt2530, intercooler, coilovers, etc. there is a chance i could end up with a car missing a whole heap of parts and have to purchase stock items?

people talk bout taking parts off and hiding it in the car or just leave it in the car and install it back on later

That's what i meant to do.

wow congratulations zymotic after all the wait!! it has finally come heheheh

i have waited half a year to get my skyline...and im about to get it within a month or 2!! so im quite excited too

hope everything goes well dude and enjoy!!!

[zymotic]

Thanks,

Wow after driving a VL commodore 3L auto this skyline is amazing - handling, power, looks kills it in every way. Just be careful in the wet this thing will spin the rear wheels in any gear - it can be a bit scarry.

Great tourqe though u can change through the gears at 2000rpm and its fine, once you go over 2500 u can start to feel that turbo kick in and its wooshka from there on!

I'm on a high - hehe!!!

@ Richelieu... I get the impression that compliancers will take off all aftermarket gear excluding stereos and fit with standard items but will refit your mods after registration for a fee (increased compliance cost up to $2k more I've heard - which I guess could be worth it depending on mods).

Hey - Nice ride !! Congrats on that !

Nice car- very similar to mine.

Ahhh - I remember all the waiting too !

Enjoy it man !

$4,550 is a shocking amount for compliance. Someone is making a killing. You should have seen what it was this time last year.

last year was under the old scheme...

Actually, I think you'll find 4550 is cheap under the new system

Feelin like Big Kev.... IM EXCITED

zymotic,

Can you tell me how long compliance took for you? My Skyline just landed in AU on October 5, and is currently getting clearance from customs...My Skyline will be getting complied at the same place as yours, and i want to know how long it'll take, approximately...cant freakin' wait!!!

[PTR33]

Ahhhhhh, the waiting.

Think of it as automotive foreplay.:uh-huh:

[zymotic]

Customs clearance took 1 week and compliance took 2 weeks.

Yes the waiting is a killer but at the end of it i saved about $5000 compared to car yard prices and got a vehicle which looks and drives virtually as new.

Its joy :alien:

Congrats on the new line zymotic!

"I know it won't be quiet as fast as a WRX but it will certainly look better in my eyes" - maybe not yet, but a WRX is worth double what you paid for your line! A couple of mods and the only WRX you'll see, will be one in your rear vision mirror

Good luck!
