Importing R32 4 Doors

[SamBo]

Towards the end of the year, I am hoping to import a 4-door turbo r32. I have been told by a dude at J-Spec Imports:

...all of this basically means that you will either have to wait until May

2003, or apply for SEVS approval for the R32 sedan and then find a

compliance holder that can already do R32 coupes that might be able to add

the sedan as a variant.

Anyone know who I could turn to for such a task?

At the moment I can't afford a new car, but I would like to do all the research etc now so that when I can afford it I can get straight into it.

Thanks

Hey man,

Moving your post to General Discussion so you'll get more replies

[SamBo]

ok thanks... but it doesn't seem to be working

[Shell]

SamBo, I can answer the q in your sig!

NO!!!!! :D

hehe

about the compliance thing, I didn't realise there was any issues with compliancing R32 sedans...sorry not much help

[funkymonkey]

not really of any help, but isn't there a r32 4 door turbo goin for sae in the for sale threads? Why don't you buy that?

There are already some R32 sedans running around, but these were imported before the laws changed in May this year.

If you look at the current list of approved vehicles, you will clearly see that the R32 is allowed only as a coupe:

SEVS ruling - Nissan Skyline R32

...compared to the R33 Skyline ruling:

SEVS ruling - Nissan Skyline R33

This means that if you really want to import an R32 sedan you would NEED to get it approved under the SEVS scheme (which shouldn't be too hard) and then get a workshop to comply it for you ... for a workshop to be able to do this they must either put in an application to import a test vehicle for this model under the new RAWS scheme which will start in May 2003, or already have R32 coupe compliance and apply to extend their CPA number to inlclude sedans.

i was able to bring my one in. but this is a personal import from nz.

its kinda cool driving a unique car around...

[SamBo]

i saw the thread about the one for sale

I am interested in it, however i dont have the money for it yet. I wanted to do some research on r32 4 doors now so that when i have my cash i can get the best deal.

I also hear that insurance is a major bitch on skylines for people under 25, so if it's too high then I wont get one for a more years

Spoke to my mate,

Looks like you are looking at QLD if your lucky. I also informed Craig, he has the contact details of someone in QLD that may be able to help.

[SamBo]

QLD is cool

My G/F has a place up at the Goldcoast so I have a temporary place of residence up there should I find that there are suitable cars up there for sale
