Where abouts in India are you moving to? I have been working in Hyderabad for a little over a year and an R34 would be rather strange amongst all the Tatas tuk-tuks, goats and buffalo on the roads. But to export your car will be easy on the OZ end of things. Proof of ownership and de-registration is about all i think you would need

It would be out of the world to own a R34 in inidia.. As of now there are no R34's in inidia.. And yea i got a garage with a security.. will have to tighten security if i take the car there...

And im from Bangalore... Hyderabad is a nice place.. i like the roads there :)

The tough part is the customs in india.. it will cost me a bomb to import a skyline there.. its like 170% Duty charges :D

Hmmm.... 170%... Duty based on what?

Does this mean that if you have a bill of sale saying that you've bought your car for $20K, duty on top would be $34K?

Thus, if it's $10K, duty would be $17K?

Or if it were $5K, duty would be an extra $8.5K? Can you legally sell this car to your alter ego for say $3K?

In other words, what is market value of a grey import in India?

yeah, just pay someone off lol. Sounds like your family might be able to find the rigght person to pay off, or atleast have the money to do so lol.

lol terry, whats with the heat comment, r34's come with standard AC and Australia is pretty hot even on a world scale of things lol.

I'd only be worried about finding decent fuel to run the car lol.

seriously though, Zaver you have to do the research yourself, It doesnt look asif anyone has exported a car from Australia to India. On our side, it is easy to send the car over, basically ring rta (vic roads) and they will tell you what to do on our end. Then find a customs shipping broker that deals with india and ask them. They'll set you up with a 20 foot shipping container, insurance for shipping, they may even know the appropriate duty that needs to be paid.... once the car is in the country i'm sure it cant be that hard to get it registered there, ive never been to india but from my limmit4d knowledge about indian cars, i dont think their registration rules are very strict at all lol.

good luck

I knew some guys that used to bring superbikes into India for their own use. Bribing was the only way to go for them, their families were loaded, so a few grand here or there didn't matter.

India already has R35 GTRs.. 5 of the guys i know through a forum have them.. They drag their cars in Hyderabad.

Guy who lives in my area in India has Lamborghini Murciélago LP640//Bentley Flying Spur //BMW 750Li//RR Phantom//BMW M3//Audi R8 and he is only 20 years old..

here is his thread

http://www.team-bhp.com/forum/super-cars-i...-my-garage.html

I did see R34GTR 2 years back so i'll find more information.. i am planning to buy R35 next year and take it with me to India when i move there.

+1 seen plenty of them over there.

Anyways would be keen to see how this plans out for you and if you get the car over there safely.

Good thing is that its so easy to bribe over there :P

But see if you can do all this properly without costing you an arm and leg.

Looking forward to the updates in the future.

My suggestion would be dnt bribe because they will confiscate it later.. lot of bollywood stars got their cars confiscated who didn't follow the correct procedure. They are getting smart.

Ask the guy below who drove this R34 in India

well im sure its gonna cost me a bomb, but the only thing thart worries me is that they have a rule of bringing in cars which are less than 10yrs old. And my skyline will be 11 yrs old... But im sure there is way to get around that...

And seeing the Team BHP thread i just came to know that there is a R34 GTR in India.. Not many people know that there... So when i go there for holidays this time i will find out all the possible info on importing it..

Will keep u guyz Updated!!

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
