I know a few shops looking at it int eh brissy area. that said the market will have to pick up again before anyone even thinks about doing one. the figure you have is for emmissions only. there's more again to get it ready.

Just a thought, can I import a Fuga 350GT without going through the emission tests and whatever else, since the engine is the same and the chassis basically the same as the V35?

Surely the government won't require emissions tests on the same exact engine just because its in a different body? Or do they, haha.

If not, how about this, I import a Fuga 350GT, then buy the VK V8 plus looms, computers etc. and import those, then just put it in. I'm sure there is something wrong with my master plan, can anyone set the record straight on this?

bro just relex wait for someone to crashone up lol VK45 DE or VK56VD from the new 08 cima is around 12K without looms computer or box just bare engine.. i already did some work on it as im thinking either TT the 6 or a 8 from the bigger cima .. umm.. the rumble of a big V8

P.S the older style VH45DE off the Q45 is cheap as chips .. power wise not sure how they go.. its older..

I've been thinking about bringing a Fuga into the UK for a while for the same reason, that V8 rumble. Main problem is exchange rate. Bought my v35 at 210 yen to sterling. It's 142 today :P

    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
    • Modern oils are amazing. Add tyres to that as well.
