Thanks fellas. I will talk to the guy. He used to import a lot of cars a year or so ago, but has moved onto other things. SO I may have to see if he's going to put it through my name or his (if his then might not be able to get out of degassing by the sounds of things)

Cheers

Best off asking the person that is importing the car for you, as it depends on what name is submitted when the import approval application is put in.  If you want to be absolutely sure then call or email them to find out for sure. ;)

One off vehicle for personal use dosent require de-gassing you customs broker will be able to help you.

If you mean doesn't require de-gassing before import then that appears to be the case for one off's. But DEH docs in my possession show that for at least one recent import case, a formal commitment was required to be provided to the DEH that the car would be converted to R134a (or similar) within 21 days of import.....see my post above for greater detail. The bottom line is that it does appear that conversion is required, just not prior to import....

Do you (or anyone else for that matter) have some sort of formal advice that conversion is not required....at all ??

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
