First Time Import Cars, Please Help Me!

[Obelisk]

Hello every,

This is my first time decide to import a R34 GTT, and I find out that there are two dealers in SA I can ask for assistance, which are 'Skyline city imports' & 'Iron Chef Imports'. Can u guys give me some suggestions which one is better and if they are reliable or not!

Your suggestions may be very helpful to me because I'm only an international student here and dont know much about this kind of things......

Thanks for helping me

PS: this is the car I found out in stork in Jap now, and I want to know: it is good in ur opinion?

(1998, R34 GT-T, 48,000 km, MT)

yeah Iron Chef is trust worth

i don't know SCI he has signed up here

[craig R33]

sci is my mate rocco, very good man and will never muck you around, even if his website isnt very preofessional lol

but yeah, he will look after you.

nice 34 there to!

[Madaz]

there ya go 2 votes for both aforementioned businesses

[Luke_ENR34]

+1 for the chef, found me my car with no troubles. Will deal with him again one day.

[ted180]

yeah ill +1 to iron chef imports.

[Hotwire]

Definately +1 for Iron Chef, just imported my legnum through him. 100% recommended

[craig R33]

ha ha, SCI is just starting up, needs more voters lol, iron chef, i have heard good things from them to, see who gives you the better deal mate.

+ 1 Iron Chef

He scored me an awesome car, no probs at all so I definately recommend.

[D_Stirls]

+1 Iron Chef.

Christians a top bloke and definitely knows his shit. He lived in Japan for a number of years while he was teaching over there and that's how he got his contacts. I'm pretty sure he's over there now so if you have a car that you are interested in it a perfect time to get him to have a look.

another vote for iron chef he's a good man!

also that 34 is good but front bar bonnet swap plus no airbag could me a possible front hit, if not you will still ned to get hold of a airbag bonnet for compliance

Yea with no airbay i dont even think compliance will allow it until it has a stock steering wheel and airbag, just to get that you'll be paying big cash on top just for the steering wheel and airbag. good luck!

air bag 10k?

[Obelisk]

air bag 10k?

10K!!!!!!!!!! Just because an air bag???

Are u guys seriously?

Can I ask the agency to change that before I import it? Usually how much does it cost to change the steering wheel?

[Moodles2]

I don't know if you know about regency where just about everyone takes their cars when defected or want to register a car in SA, to get a car to pass it needs to be dead stock, no height adjustable suspension, stock turbos, no visible aftermarket engine mods (of course you can put that stuff back on once its passed, until you need those stock parts again if you get defected and need to go back to regency).. theres probably more that I'm not thinking of that applies to a skyline.

[Madaz]

10k pffft

>>Import Monster<< << you should be able to find one here

>>R34??>>

[Damo_R34]

Ohh looks like an east bear front bar. Sell it to me

[AFTDRK]

Hey Obelisk,

Ive seen the listing for that car, nice car by the looks of it

I am currently in the process of importing an R33 at the moment with Kristian from Iron Chef Imports, hes a good guy and his reputation reflects the high quality of his service.
