From the information gathered through the negative experiences of two (and hopefully not more) buyers, they found out that 2004 and onwards models did not, for some strange reason, meet the emissions standards set by the ADRs or whatever, even though the same engines were still being used as those in the pre-2004 models that ARE eligible for import here.

So, basically, due to some ridiculous red tape -and unless it's changed since then - you can't legally bring in and have complied any models built after November 2003...

There are a few threads on this, and a quick search will reveal more in detail...

not to sound smart but put your original post in the "Importing Vehicles" section of SAU. You will get pretty much a definative response as some of the importers (J-Spec, Carzima, Iron Chef etc.) who are apart of SAU and they do check and post and give adivce when needed.

this will put your mind at ease

The reason behind this, is because ADR's concerning emission's were changed after this date. Japan didn't change anything and ergo cars built after this have have yet to be proved to be able to pass the later emission standards.

While technically it COULD be done, you would need to find a damn near perfect car, and then bring it over and TRY to get it tested and passed before the 12 month limitation on compliance kicks in. It would be a very long, tiresome and extremely expensive process.

You would receive maximum kudos for your efforts from everyone to import one AFTER you, but :P

I live for opportunities to bust this one out!

But seriously, a quick search will save a lot of time - for example: try the M35 info thread, which has links to pics anf info on the cars you are looking at.

axis autech , ideally !!!!

Where in Vic are you?

Do you need to have the later model?

I can show you my Stagea if you want to get some idea of what they are about (if you have only seen them online). :(

My question was directed at Ryan because I was to extend the same offer to him... :)

im located near bachus marsh , but travel all around with work , i would like a later model as possable , so i dont feel im going to far backwards so to speak , i have a 2002 model ford , so a 2003 model stag would kind of defeat the purpose of buying a new vehicle , if you can understand where im coming from. regards alan

      Weird compression after rebuild

      By EndZee · Posted

      But if I smoke test 5th cylinder it’s all ok, no leaks  when I try with 2nd it’s leaking exhaust and intake, it doesn’t come from oil dip stick.    so maybe when car was running poorly, rich or sth. Spark plugs were black and covered in charcoal or sth lookalike. could potential contamination make valves not seal properly? is there also a possibility that rb’s don’t have equal performing cooling passages  meaning back of the engine will be hotter than front. Can this cause improper wear if engine was running under load for short time? Or carbon build up could just burnt from 4-6 and is still on 1-3?   I out of my head like really. Timing is as manual crank-exhaust 47, exhaust-intake 38 at this point I thinking about give it a try and make another 500-1000km and check if anything change, if not I will most likely disassemble engine head /or whole engine and send it back to rebuild. It’s killing me

      Yeah. air pressure leakdown test is where I would be headed next here, using one's ears to determine whether it's the valves or bores/rings leaking...

      More likely you didn't bed the rings in correctly and have glazed the bores. Running with misfires on a fresh build is somewhat of a no-no. Surely no-one "smoke tests" the combustion chamber? That's what a leakdown test is for. Smoke testing is, um, a bit of a wank at best, and only really useful for external pipework.

      Attesa pump mount options / ideas? R32 gtr style.

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Well, obviously that kit is not a relocation kit or anything other than just the original isolators and the like. I would suggest that it should be a matter of just bending up some flat bar to build a mount over the top of some other diff, with the flat bar held to the back of the diff by the rear hat bolts. A little welding, a little thinking about how to secure the front of this structure, maybe some different hoses in case you can't get it in just the right place.
