darrinspencer, my point is that the condition of the cars will be very poor, and im pretty sure it isn't worth wasting you money on, as you would need to fix so many things

I agree there are some poor quaility 15 yr old GTR in japan.

Prestige have high prices

A mate of mine bought his 95 33 gtst from them it owed him $22,000 plus rego.

i admit it had a nice aftermarket body kit.

I payed $12,500 plus rego and tyres

Put the cars side by side and the only difference is the body kit.

You need to shop around.

Buying any car thru a Australian dealer you will have pay a price

That's why they are in bussiness.

we all would like to drive a 34 GTR done 10,000km, but who has $65,000 plus to buy one

I know i don't.

Plus, i drive my GTS-t to the shop and back so if i where to replace it with a GTR YES i would drive that to the shop and back to.... i don't get your point... there are flogged out cars everywhere... there are also good cars everywhere...

this one looks ok... http://www.cineaction.co.jp/japanese_used_...gi?did=10013876

also, i'd never want a car that's only been driven to the shops and back because once you give it a bootfull the piston rings etc are gonna go "oh my god, i've never been worked this hard in my life, bye bye!!!"

ok DJ984 im not going to post in this topic anymore, becuase you don't understand the point i am tring to make, you are acting like a little child, i am right and you are wrong 13_devil.

"we ARE realistic..." -yeap sure you are, you should all make an importing company im sure you would make a heap

so go ahead buy your 89gtr, i was just tring to help cya

DJ984, what i was tring to say was that the dream gtr

female driver - driven only to the shops and back low km , top condition for 15k is just a mthy i have never seen such a car

You will in 2004 because you no longer have to comply them at a cost of $6600

plus they are a bit cheaper in japan now and the exchange rate

12 months ago you would have payed about $24,000 for the same car that you can now buy for $15,000 in 2004.

Would paying $24,000 for the same car be any better.

Think about it.

Guest darrinspencer
like i said go ahead buy a 89gtr, and import 100 of them for everyone else and make 200% profit like someone already said

13_devil

I will gladly sell you a car in 2004 for $25,000 if you think you will be getting a good buy because you payed top dollar.

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
