r34 GTR Vspec, Import vs buy local

[wrxhoon]

dont u also have to pay luxuary car tax aswell ?

Yes you do depending on cost , it comes in at above $56 k but you only pay on the sum above that not on the whole cost .

Hey Guys,

I know a little japanese, so does anyone know of any japanese performance car yard sites?? It might be easier to find a good yard (or 5) and travel over there and do it that way..

Or do they have big f-off auctions??

cheers,

Ben.

Try this, http://www.rabbit.ne.jp/ or this http://www.gtnet.co.jp/home/menu.html

But they are not cheap , the auctions are much cheaper .

How is the gtr  going Kris ? Mine is still locked up in the garage in Osaka , waiting for a ship and colecting dust .

It's doing great. It's still almost stock though just haven't had the time lately to put into researching and getting bits for it.

Cant wait to see yours

Go to GARY @ Exotic Car's in Ballarat, he has a white 2000 Vspec with 15,000klms for $75,000 - Has Exhaust .

Ive driven that car and its all genuine.

Cheers

We bought a bayside blue one out of Qld late last year with 290awkw rebuilt engine by Gavin Wood, lots of mods in the way of suspension etc and it owes my client under $85K parked at his door.

It is a beautiful car and was the one featured on the front cover of HPI 9.

So it shows there are bargains( or we think it is) that can be had locally.

Cheers

Again, not cheap. Auctions will be far cheaper but more of a gamble (then again, its not like its a 15 year old car though ).

Don't discount the chances of getting a bargain locally, but if I were you, I would focus my energies on the auction scene in Japan. Most of the reputable agents offer the majority of their fee back if you don't buy anyway, so you might loose a couple of hundred at most.

I saw an add for an R34 GTR V Spec in Black with some minor mods for $99k. Otherwise, I havent really seen any R34 GTR's for sale around Australia. You should go to Japan because there you'll have a greater selection. Find the best example and export it back to Australia.

i know that www.j-spec.com.au have some R34 plates still, if you wanted to secure a plate and import at the same time. I got my R34 (GT-T) through them.

R34 GTR, 15,000km's and $75k? not a chance... i've heard dodge things about some ballarat import yard...

Yes, I looked at an R34 in Ballarat, airbags hanging out of the dash and steering wheel... not good.
