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

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
