Theres no way anyone here will be able to tell you this. The costs for importing a car into your own country will vary wildly from Australia. You might not be able to do it at all.

Id take a stab in the dark and say 50k - 60k USD or thereabouts.

I have seen 4 R33 gtr's advertised in Prestige Motorsports web site in there sold vehicls section. They ranged from $33,000 to $41,000 Aus dollars. These prices included compliancing and all import cost.

This is what they said about one of there import R33 GTR 's -

"The following vehicle has just come into stock with a supplier in Japan for 1,885,000 yen FOB. The cost in Australia is estimated to be $39,600.

We have included the cost of shipping, import duties, GST, compliance and our service fee in this estimate. Not included is the cost of tyres, Govt. stamp duty and registration (normal licensing costs for any vehicle). "

1,885,000 yen = $ 17,078.14 US dollars

so you could give them a call and see if they can help you search for the car you need. But i hear import cost to the US are huge.

You can convert yen to US dollars here ----> http://www.xe.com/

And heres Prestige's web site ----> http://www.prestigemotorsport.com.au/

like sewid said firstup.. totally pointless asking this question .. ask somebody locally, as the costs to import a car into the country would be totally different over here.

Best you could look at would be the average FOB prices in Japan (what it costs to buy over there)

There's a company in USA called MotoRex who specalising in importing GTR. I think their website is www.motorex.net

Since you are in Canada, maybe it will be easier to import a car thru these guys, or maybe just cross over the border, buy one in USA and drive it back, but I dunno how the registration system works there.

That wouldn't be much different i'm afraid. to convert RHD car to LHD plus any sort of compliance and tax issues, it may cost at least US$15000 on top of the car price and all fees in Japan and shipping cost.

Yes, dont be surprised... at the end of the day, a R33 GTR skyline in the USA would still be around US$40k

Its says his location is Canada, not the US. Assuming that's correct, Canada doesn't have a car industry to protect (unlike the US) so it might have OK import laws.

Best bet is to contact your local automotive authority and ask for advice about importing a car.

    • Man, different parts but the same numbers is terrible @dbm7! And it doesn't help that most online shops don't list the part numbers at all. They just give a list of compatible models...
    • Slow when hot could also be because its getting more dynamic compression, OR things are getting a bit tighter once it is all expanded. If it were an earthing issue, typically I'd expect you to have it have issues all the time. Unless it's really a combination of both things. Where the higher compression, and things being a bit tighter, is giving that bit of extra load and you do need a slight clean up on the cables/connections.
    • Yeah, this is one of the most annoying things about nissan part numbers... I've got an unrelated example... Image is of the AT output shaft ~ they have the same part#, but clearly the shaft on the left is beefier design to that on the right ...the difference (essentially) is the 'lighter' shaft on the right, is for engines up to RB25DE (this includes RB20 variants) : the shaft on the left is for RB25/26DET(T)....are they interchangeable? Yes...but obviously one shaft is going to be stronger than the other...and, the lighter shaft is around USD115, but the heavier shaft closer to USD150...same part#... ...epc-data usually tells a tale ~ the amayama listing for 39100-23U60 has a note "Longest side is between 60 and 105 cm" ; no such info is there for 39100-23U70 ...and given the great disparity in price between the 2 parts, it makes me at least curious (to the point of caution) where the 'extra money' went? ...ie; these 2 parts have a cost difference that (to myself at least) isn't explained by 'plastic boot'...ie; with amayama there's AUD700 price difference ...plastic versus rubber?...I'm not seeing it like that...and 60cm ~ 105cm...??...that's a huge disparity....something hinky going on here... I'd try searching by VIN, not model... /2cents
    • I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.
