LouLou Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 While we are on the topic, how much money would you actually save if you actually went over to Japan and imported the car over yourself?

SR32 Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 (edited) My votes go to www.prestigemotorsport.com.au and www.j-spec.com.au Both have been around for years, the 32 was imported with prestige and i haven't had any major problems with her since (near 3 yrs so far)! I'm also looking at importing an R34 atm. Is autoworx cheaper when they import specifically for you compared to the available stock on their website?

R32 Driver Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 but autoworx gives money back gaurentee if the cars not as described if you do a search theres been quiet a few horror stories about cars that had accident damage and cant get compliance then you left with a very expensive track car?

32vspecII Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 (edited) we are importing a 34gtr for a customer now and if your ok with reasonable km you can get a 99/00 with 80-90000km for as low as 45k landed and complied . you may even get a vspec for not much more 80000km may frighten some people but remember these cars are now almost 10 years old so thats reasonably average km and a great price to get into a 34 gtr and we are seeing beautiful grade 4 cars come up at that price even with those km so we are still talking excellent quality all our cars are of coarse hand picked and inspected in japan and our guys know skylines inside and out for the record we have never had a car we supplied that couldn't be complied or even come close , were just not in that game and you will save significantly from importing over stock cars as the stock ones come with warranty and are lot prepared etc Edited January 24, 2008 by 32vspecII Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/201711-importin-a-r34-gtr/page/2/#findComment-3601917 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh@un Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 It's always nice to drive a car before you buy it, but as long as the kays are genuine, the grade/accident history is accurate, and the import company can pretty much guarantee the safety of the car- then i guess you'd be okay.

choyda Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 I've been told, regardless of the importer, if you can get one of the stocker cars from here, you'll do well: http://www.global-auto.ne.jp/stock/public_...php?model=BNR34 You will see a few of their cars referred to from the other importer's sites.

Guest Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 He did negotiate the supply of the Duke Racing Skyline 1/4 mile European record holder R33 GTR among other 10 second GTR's in the country that were either raced as is or stripped then transplanted into other GTR's.

Kelvin Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 i see somebody's finally looking to get that GTR ey?? anyway i bought mine blind from the east..was a little scary when i think back about it..paid full amount upfront without even seeing or driving the car..but thankfully everything turned out fine ..anyway i think it would be best to pay the premium and go thru a proper company to have your car imported..saves you the worries and headaches if anything turns out wrong Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/201711-importin-a-r34-gtr/page/2/#findComment-3884739 Share on other sites More sharing options...
