At auction in japan they can be as cheap as 500,000yen average price for the one you want would be 800,000yen - 1,000,000yen

You mentioned a particular car dealer in your thread.
The overheads for a dealer include rent, electricity, water, salesman wage, detailer wage, web designer wage, admin wage, signwriter, posters, advertising flags, their super, mobile phone bill, landline bill, insurance on damage, public liability insurance etc and that's before the dealer's take home pay.
The buyers of all his cars will be paying for all that!
Now, what you're asking is, "Is there a way that I can buy an import and escape most of the costs of above?"
Well of course you can; but talk to a reputable importer on SAU and cross reference with those you see in Performance Imports Mag etc

Theres charging more for their cars.. and then theres plain ripping people off, winding back kilometres and bringing over previous wreck cars and selling them as mint low kilometer cars is just plain wrong.. sad that most import dealerships have succumb to this.. not naming any places or accusing anyone.. just saying

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      Yeah, I get that. I try to be as cost-efficient as possible with cars, and typically prefer to buy them at the bottom of their depreciation curve. I was looking at those Bilsteins too as they're roughly in the same price bracket as the BC's - lack of adjustability and being soft put me off, not that I want anything too hard. That's my issue with the Skyline, it's too expensive and it's reflected in my driving. I don't mind going full pelt as long as there's a gravel trap to catch me. Really, proper safety equipment is needed for total confidence. Well this just turned up for the BMW. I'll try and get the front together tomorrow and take some pics of the absolutely horrid rear end; perhaps I'll have a crack at the rear on Wednesday. I need to make the car drivable before the weekend as I'll be driving it over to London.

      While going through data logs late last week, I spotted a small issue with my WMI. My WMI starts to progressively inject at 11psi of boost. I'm using a 25psi cut in pressure switch on my WMI as an added safety and if the curve is linear, I should hit that 25psi on my WMI system around 13-14psi of boost.  As per my data logs, my WMI pressure switch only activates around 19psi of boost. This is causing my non WMI 4D map to trim for WMI. I'm presuming this is caused by the mechanical switch response time, injection curve not being linear or both.  I ordered a 2-10psi adjustable cut in pressure switch which should correct this. If this doesn't resolve it before my dyno appointment on Friday, I'll just remove the pressure switch temporarily and more than likely replace it with a pressure transmitter afterwards.    BTW Speedtek has yet to refund me.
