And yes, it's in Japan (Ehime), and CANT be imported to Australia under RAWS, so I advertised it here in the Japan forum.

It's not a Nissan, but it's a damn fine, and rapaciously, quick machine.

Shaken til 9/2012, service history etc.

Please, let me sell it to another loving gaijin, and not to some snaky Japanese automotive caryard dealer who snorts at me and pays me 50,000 yen recycling for it as its "too old"...

personal import?

[13Beast]

Sure, if you want to own it for 12 months first to qualify as a personal import...

price? might be worth bringing it in for parts

[13Beast]

No point bringing it in as a personal import. I won't have any change out of 8-10k. Same with parts.

Its a weapon though - if any people live in Nihon and love their horsepower, this is the car for you

yeah shame it can't be imported but for anyone in japan it would be a cool car for some fun around japanese roads and tracks. having driven a MR2 with TD06 set-up I can say it makes for a mighty fun package. and it's something different from the usual skyline/silvia/chaser etc. 3SGE is a sweet engine. nice long shaken too great for a gaijin who is not looking forward to his first shaken raping....

If I was spending decent time in japan right now I'd sure consider it for a J-side car.

Ahh i love this car. Wish we could import any cars we wanted! Good luck with the sale mate!
