Look at www.prestigemotorsport.com.au as he list the cars as well that come from www.japanautodirect.com who send it out to a lot of Brokers.

Accident damaged cars are not allowed to come in under RAWS, no matter how you read it a replaced rear qtr is structial damage as only 25 mil is allowed.

Make sure you know who is complying the car and if they will comply a car that has panel damage as a lot are knocking them back.

One guy just went through this on a 32 GTR and RAWS couldnt verify it would pass till the incoming vehicle report was done before complying it.

In the end he just sold the car in Japan after owning it since April.

They complied my last car under the old scheme too. No dramas and none of the BS of 'extra this' and 'extra that', that I was expecting after speaking to others who had stuff complied around the place. I'd give them a go, its' a shame I couldn't have bought mine through them but they didn't buy back then, as all the headaches I had were with buying and transporting.

      My BMW 335i

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
