That Import 101 mob have been importing “race only” cars under their own level 3 cams license. Maybe import one for race use through them, then do a VIN swap with a local GSR or something

This is of course illegal, and I’m not suggesting nor condoning this behavior and or activity.

Take the above info how ever you like, just do your research before you do it, as you don’t want to be stuck with two cars, or a car that’s of no use.

we can, but they need to be SEVS complied, which usually means stock. (providing they are on the SEVS list.. pretty sure they are)

The hardcore ones are for race rally use only, so no compliance, no road rego, no nothing....

I *heard* (so who knows really) that someone how imports a race rally car (with CAMS 3) has to sell it to someone with CAMS 3 also, but who knows if thats true.

you can not import an evo III for road use at all , they are not on the sevs list . I assume they fail because they are to close to the CC GSR turbo 4wd lancer misti brought in to australia

there used to be a loophole in victory to let you bring one in and replace a written off domestic GSR lancer with it but that has been closed

you can bring in a race only one if you have or can find someone with a cams license and then you can transfer all the running gear to a CC gsr lancer , the car is virtually identical to the evo III when you are done .

its not that difficult but domestically delivered gsrs are getting rarer and expensive so the total cost would probably almost equal an evo VI which you can bring in anyway

I was under the impression that it could be sold on to someone without a cams licence, but that doesn't mean it could then be rego'd... still for track/race use only...

Bugger....is this true.....can anyone confirm this ?....

where have you been hiding... it was scrapped about this time last year (early Feb). Unless you had docs proving that you had purchased the car before that date... no more 15 year rule....

pre - frikkin - 89

and top quality cars that age are getting VERY hard to find

yes but that defeats the whole purpose of buy one for a steal of a price....plus by the time you do the conversion, the cost will spiral like hell......and will cost more than a evo 6 or 6.5 :yes: already in AUS.... :)

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      AFM looks to be a z32 The injectors maybe old Nismo 555cc The turbo tag when looked up seems to be a gt2871 , imagine it would have the bigger rear housing .82 all look like the mid 00's mods when he started building it up. Vac hose seems right but would need to see a diagram. Great work going up there and sorting it out, be a good club car for someone wanting a good reliable rig.  I know I would like to have it but no space and too many other race cars at the moment.

      R32 GTR EV? The leaf of the Godzilla's!

      I can't agree. If we hadn't all been brought up with the noise caused by the inefficiency of an ICE, no-one would actually ask for all that. An EV is like any other car, it just goes better.

      2 more things I have to work out Easy one first...can anyone describe how to pull the fuel pump and sender from a 33? I can feel there is some sort of mount and clips but don't have a manual and don't know the trick......if not I'll spend some quality time in the boot witha lighter tomorrow. Second question is harder.  He had changed the upper plenum to a plazmaman but clearly got to a point with the vacuum hoses where he said "f**k it, I'm going inside for a beer" and never came back to that job because it was a mess. Am I right to think that I need: 1. Pre throttle (16mm nipple on inlet) to AAC's main 20mm fitting as the main pre throttle feed 2. ACC has a second 13m outlet joined to that 20mm fitting which I think is the pre throttle air supply for the cold start valve? 3. Cold start valve's outlet fitting then goes to Plenum (to bypass throttle?) There is some adapter on the back of the ACC with 2 fittings (13mm and 10mm), do I run the 10mm through a 1 way valve to the Brake Booster (4) and the 13mm back to a 13mm nipple on the Plenum as the Idle control (5)? 6. Run a 6mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart BOV to the Plenum? 7. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Fuel Pressure Reg to the Plenum? 8. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart Boost controller to the Plenum? (Wastegate already has a pre turbo pressure source running to the solenoid then the wastegate on the other side of the bay)  Any help appreciated, the GTR is quite different setup and while the Stagea also has FFP it is different again. (And no Dose, I'm not pissing it all off and putting a ethrottle on it....)

      OK, onto some questions to try and speed up the process a little. Does anyone know what core this Garret is? I know it is a high flowed standard turbo but nothing else about it. Tag says OK 0169J - 446179-5032 Same question for the injectors, I don't know what they flow and ideally can work it out before it hits the dyno, they are a mustard yellow side feed
