Just wondering if anyone who has or is importing an R32 GTR could shed some light on the process for me, and give me some tips for things to look for as far as condition and costs Iam going to be up for with fixing the car up.. I've heard prestigemotorsport is one of the best to go with.. Did any of you get bank loans for these cars if you did I do need some advice in that area as well... Any help would be greatly appreciated.

There are heaps of threads in the importation forum that have all the info you need, or just do a search.

:werd:

but for god sake don't buy and import a 15yo GTR if you need a loan to pay for it.

Insurance is a killer, and you need it if you have a loan.

The quality of the car that arrives is a lucky dip...will you have $6000 if you need to rebuild the engine when it gets here?

Last thing you want is a great car like a GTR sitting broken in the garage for 6 months while you pay off a loan on it

If you go to any of these Brokers you may as well go to www.japanautodirect.com as the links show the same cars at various brokers as stock and you dont have to pay the $1,100.

Links at various sites coming from the Aussie Brokers showing same stock.

    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
