Yep thats right people,

As with Richard (mmmgtir) I have received my import approval in the post today (6/12) which I sent to DOTARS by express post on the 29/11.

And here was I thinking at least 3 weeks with the rush.

Nick will be a bit coy, but the truth is he wants to become a wagonist and has bought a kick-ass tarago with 8 foot long rear wing and disco style interior. I imagine the GTR will be for sale soon.

I've got pics of where J-Spec holds their cars while waiting for them to reach their 15th birthday. I was told it was a high security area and only customs officials could enter. bolocks. Try a rice field with chooks running around

don`t tell me someone from j-spec is not telling the truth!!!!! :D

Bad news - we got another answer from the yard holding the car and they will not let anyone in there, not even the owner - it is a customs controlled area and security is tight.

The only thing we could do is move the car elsewhere for inspection and then back to the holding yard again, this might cost around 25,000 yen so it might not be worthwhile?

We will ask again later on when it's closer to the time but I don't fancy our chances now that we have been told this.

MRK25T: no offence mate, but a picture of a bunch of cars in a field proves nothing in terms of your claims. I've seen many similar pics on various sites and all it proves is that there are a lot of secondhand cars in fields in Japan (if it is in fact a picture of cars in Japan).

Disclaimer: I don't work for and am not associated with J-Spec. I've met Craig Moor and believe him to be honest and genuine.

      But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?

      Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.

      Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
