Have a look at these guys. I'll be using them to take a car to NZ in late May. They also service Australia.

oh sorry mate, I didn't realise there was more than one Rezz.

I was asking you for help mate, your the super moderator in Japan right? :rofl:

Btw, I found a cheaper hr31 gts-x for only 10,000 yen which finishes tomorrow night. I have the cash, and what i'm looking to do is get the person who ships it a bonus for picking up the car and delivering the cash, then shipping it or.... arrange for the seller to drop it off, one of the two. But i'm so serious about this, I really want it

So if you can help it would be greatly appreciated, if you want money that's fine

Regards

Andrew

I think you'll find it easier to go with an Importer ...

I was thinking doing the same but its not just buying the car there's more to it than just buying a car.

You have paperwork to deal with then you need a contact or reliable person to organise the car to be delivered and then get sent to shipping port, then more paperwork plus and organise it when the car lands on OZ land, then compliance which should be easy as it will be under the 15yr rule and you can do it yourself...

But if you have experience importing a car before then go for it I might even ask you to do mine LOL

Good luck anyway

Yeah, I know there is a lot of paperwork. But I didn't want to have to spend $1k on an importer to do all the paper work

I know there will be import duties, GST (10% of purchased item is 10,000yen is about $13aus.) and government stamp duty on top of the shipping prices. Do you know a rough cost to get from Jap to Bris/aus?

Is there anything more i need to know about importing?

Here's the main 3 carriers we use at J-Spec, I've included the telephone numbers in japan, they have english speaking reps who you can talk to. They might deal direct with public, or they might refer you to a local agent who can do the shipping booking and customs, deregistration etc for you.

I spoke to the guys here if they could do it for you for a lower rate or something because they're not actively searching for a car for you or getting a mechanic check or anything, they said they'll have to see what would be involved before they can give any quotes, so I'll let you know.

      Torana Lx Gtr Hatch, Lots Of Pictures

      Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I just stack 2 pieces of 200x50 timber on top of each other. Total length about 900mm, with the top one being a little shorter and both having a 45° angle cut on them to make the front edge a bit of a ramp. Put these in front of each front wheel, drive up on them, throw the trolley jack under. Takes 1 minute. Scissor jacks can eat a bowl of dicks. I never use on under my car unless desperate.

      Well, yeah. But I just expect everything other than my car to feel like a bucket of shit anyway. I still miss my Alfa 116 so much though. You could run over a 20c piece and tell whether it was heads or tails.
