No, if the car has already been imported and an import approval issued for this chassis number, it remains the same even if you export it to NZ and then bring it back. Say you bring this in as a race/rally import then suddenly there's a compliance plate for it so you send it over to NZ or Japan even then bring it back...no that doesn't work. Call DoTaRS to verify my little piece of info

Heya Kristian, if you can get the car here in one piece for that amount I'm very interested. I don;t have a cams level 3 license to be able to import the car as a race car myself, but if you can arrange it, I can arrange the cash :rofl:

Kristian,

Not having a shot at you or your business by any stretch but were you seriously intending to import this car and perhaps take a deposit/full payment from someone without even checking to see if compliance plates are available for 99 TT RZ's?

Isn't that the first thing you'd check / already know being in the business?

Adrian

Compliance plates are available for 1999 Supras in Melbourne.

I only just found out that THIS car was not able to be complied when I went to purchase the compliance plates.

You might also like to know that I took paymentof $26,000 for this car last week, and when we found out it could not be complied, we gave back a FULL refund.

Japanese Import Parts provides 100% refunds when the customer does not get what they pay for.

You might like to consider a PM next time to check all the facts before you assume and post up in the thread.

Didn't assume a single thing. Thought that was obvious by the questions I asked and the fact that I started the post with, "Not having a shot at you or your business by any stretch." I am very pleased to see that an SAU advertising business such as Japanese Import Parts is a responsible, law-abiding company. It is a pleasure to know that a company associated with SAU refunded the $26k as you were obliged to.

Have a great day :spank:

Adrian

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
