Hey guys,

Been awhile since ive been on here. Seems forever since i owned the Purple R33 GTR.... But the bug of a GTR is biting again, mayb!

Im looking this time for a R34 GTR. But on carsales etc there doesnt seem to be to many coming up etc.

So with the Aussie dollar strong and what not, i was thinking of mayb importing one.

Who here has imported a car to adelaide?

Whos a decent REPUTABLE company to talk to and get some rough quotes on price?

Does anyone know roughly what a 34 GTR is worth landed and complied here?

Anything i should watch out for or any advice would be appreciated

Thanks

Adam

Haha thanks guys so ill read between the lines and say ummmm Iron Chef??

Cheers will shoot off an email to him

just bought one for a friend,

dont expect them to be any cheaper over there than they are here.

they are still holding their value quite well... that is unless you want a clapped out one

Just out of interest - how much are you hoping you would get one for landed and complied? I thought about importing too, but the cars I liked on the auction sites I saw weren't exactly cheap, with most (grade 4 and above with lowish km's) working out around $55k landed and complied. As above give Christian a call - I'm sure he'd give you a good idea about cost etc....

J-Spec

Currently getting my R34 GTR through them and this is my second car via J-Spec

being very good to deal with and very patient

I got my GTR just 2 weeks ago "still in transit" after bidding and loosing at auctions for a while as i need V-Spec for Non V-Spec money :)

Got a Black V-Spec around 61,000Km, non accident, Rust for 45K landed and complied, which i though was nice.

They give you plenty of photos and report as well

few nice goodies on it as well

There are Few Nice Silver R34 GTR in Australia and some White ones, but no other colors unless you want to pay a lot of money

by the way Aussie $ against the Yen has not changed much

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
