How Long To Get Approval?

[GTR_coupe]

Howdy,

I have bought a R32 GTR in japan and have

applied to Canberra for import approval as

a race / rally car.

They say it can take upto 17 days to get approval.

What I would like to know from some one who has

done the same is how long does it really take?

Cheers,

Geoff

ps. there will be a full interia for sale as soon

as the car arrives in Adelaide.

Ask your broker Geoff!

Give them a call on that 1800 number and give them a rev up, it has been plenty long enough now.

Howdy Kristian,

I thought I would leave my broker alone until I had my approval.

Will call the 1800 number Monday if no news this week.

And then my Broker with:

Just interested, when the car is still in Japan. Where is it being stored while you wait for the approval?

Howdy,

Sorry for the delay in answering,

a lot has happened in the last week.

I bought the car from a company who deal

with exporting cars from Japan all the time.

Part of the deal is FOB. My understanding is this means

Freight On Board (or something like that) which means

they will hold the car until you are ready to have it

placed on a boat.

Last week my import approval arrived in the mail

and the car arrived in Brisbane. Just waiting on

Australian customs to release it and will then get

it trucked to Adelaide.

Cheers,

Geoff
