Check out that thread from supraforums.

Basically the same stuff you look out for when you go shopping for the car. And ask to see ALL the papers that came with it from Japan.

ohh thanks man, thats really helpful!

Lol This kid is hopeless.

go down, look at the car then decide, pictures can always be shopped...

It looks in pretty good nick though

[Mr Eps]

supra looks decent if u can afford it - interior need a detail from what i can see in the pics though!

ie indicator stalks etc...

but

looks like a neat car... i reckon you would be capable of getting a decent NA 5mt supra from uss JP for your budget for sizzle.

also

what about an AE111 sprinter???

im trying to get my mate to buy one but he's a c*nt ... he used to have a ae110 sprinter and loved it but now drives a 250xxxkm 01 build corolla that's falling to bits...

n doesn't wanna risk importing =P

anyway... seeing as you swear you're not a fgt..

what about ae111 sprinter bz-R??? i (personally) would have this before i went non turbo supra..

20v 4age mated to 6speed gearbox

can def be had for your budget

cute little two door ...recaro driver and passenger seat.. neat little interior, punchy engine, dual airbags, sunroof... would be a more "spirited" drive than a supra (no offence alvin)

it'd be like driving a honda i imagine...

[xALmoN]

Well, the supra is a tad heavy, but it no doubt handles perfectly.

I bought the supra for its looks + 2JZ reliability/power and of course, i've always wanted either a skyline or a supra since i was what, 16 i think.

So when it was finally time to take the plunge, i just got the supra.

[Lucaas]

mate. Skylines are the way to go. but if ur looking for something cheap then on ur little japaneseusedcars website go for something under 3 if u get it cheap then do what most people on this forum do. and rebuilt it using their own blood sweat and tears. After all its always better to look at a car and go I built this . instead of looking at a car and saying I bought this . good luck mate. nd stay within the law

[.:: GimpS-R34 ::.]

You are either a troll, or the gov't hasnt imposed the law regarding to retards breading yet..

1. you are looking for cheap versions of good cars.. hint. they are f**ked up!!! that's why they are cheap

2. you're uncle is a mechanic.. is he qualified.. or backyard mechanic? cause he doesn't even know what to do with a vin to search for the cars history..

3. you can't just assume the bmw has thick oil to hide knocks.. its new oil and tires cause he's trying to spruce up the car and also for RWC issues..

4. Once you buy a import you don't suddenly have the knowledge to drift..

5. Neons is where its at.. You stick some neons under the car.. in the boot, under the footwells.. and man.. those bitches just get on their backs and wet up..

You can't just sit in a car and expect some street cred.. the cars you are looking at are common.. Plus most are commy and ford drivers.. No cred with them.. And the girls wet up over a commy/ford with a bodykit and fully sick rims..

replace hopeless with hektik.

You're hektic? Love kebabs? Live around sydney? Then the VL is the car for you..

oh and *subscribed*

[mad082]

Just a daily. Like an overall balanced street car. I'd prefer RWD so I can learn how to drive properly (currently using a front wheel drive car). and yeah i wouldn't mind learning how to drift but can't afford too with the price of tires.

the post made me LOL hard. what a fkn nugget

also lol at noob digging up thread

[Isola]

...oh....my....god....

Can this please be renamed to "OP is a fucktard" ?

[soturi]

This thread is like buying imported cars.....every now and then a gem just pops up...beeeauuutiful

[La Bomba]

Does a nugget mean its like ..worth heaps? eg a gold nugget. Anyway my car is absolutely immaculate. Nice engine, Blitz Ecu, cheap on fuel.

I drive like a grandma to get maximum fuel economy so like I can do heaps of laps in George St yelling out to chiks.

Oh yeah i bought a car, didn't import, found an immaculate example locally

[La Bomba]

...oh....my....god....

Exactly. Mods are the ones able to change the topic title.

I see you're getting your money's worth out of University...

[syfon]

me? daft? hahaha i think an 87.05 uai/atar prooves im not daft.

No the main reason I want an import is so I can impress everyone. Not by going fast but simply sitting in the car. If i pay for something I'm not going to abuse it because I take good care of everything I own. If a P.O.S was given to me, to be honest, I would treat it with less respect than a car I've bought with my own money. I only exceed the speed limit by around 5-10 km's when I drive and only in 90km/h sections...so getting an import is mainly for street cred. However I'd become a better driver learning in a RWD car than a FWD which doesnt mean i'd be thrashing it by any means. And f.y.i im not a hoon. bogans in their p.o.s commydores try drag me at the lights in my e90 corolla, which is pretty sad considering my corolla has 67KW and they feel big by blowing smoke towards my corolla. And CAMS licences probably costs thousands of dollars. too expensive. And i honestly don't see any difference between completely thrashing the shit out of a car on the track and thrashing one on the street, both do the same damage to the engine and chassis. Street obviously is more risky because of other cars etc, but flogging a car on the street and track is essentially the same thing. I'd rather buy a nice import car that has been owned by a old grandma, than a car enthusiast, cause most car enthusiasts have their cams licence and have their weekend track days flogging the car. As for your commodore statement, i'd rather not get a commy cause holden still hasn't learned to make a good engine. My parents could help me buy a car, but I'd rather use my OWN money because that way i'd feel i've earnt the right to drive a nice import. So calling me a hoon is unjustified. Just because i like watching japanese touge drift runs doesnt mean I'm going to go out on the street and try to drift...for one because I don't know how, and for two because I can't afford all the new tires and for three because it is my car that i would have paid for. Buying an import based on seeing how these cars can be driven is a legitimate reason in my opinion

Smokey nagata, the legendary tuner, going 300km/h through wangan tunnel does not impress you? Mr.Eps he musst not be a car enthusiast because according to you he would be a "Hoon". Man that's bullshit. He's part of the reason why lots of people want a skyline, him going this fast on the street is example of pure skill, much more skill than someone going 300 on an airport strip

These cars can be driven so hard with such precision is a good reason to simply own one, purely because of the respect ud gain for having one "Mr.Eps". Those silvia s13 "street hoons" as youd say, are better drivers than you'll ever be, and it seems you're jealouse you cant execute that sort of skill legally, let alone illegally. Those guys drifting on the street is far more impressive than organised drift events. Because that was the starting ground for so many guys, e.g Orido, now why don't you hate on him? cause technically you should call him a "Hoon who should drive a commodore". You're picking on me cause I'm 18 and looking for an import, which immediately madee you jump to assumptions. Now I'd hate to be you but you've just been outsmarted by an 18 yr.old, who is supposedly a "Hoon". Just because i'm a newbie doesnt mean im gonna take shit from some Hot headed enthusiast.

LOL i havn't even read this whole thread, and frankly, I'm not going to.

You seem like a complete and utter moron who wants to buy and import for all the wrong reasons.

Firstly, if you want to buy an import so you look cool and awesome and fully sick infront of your friends and the chicks, then you must have your head stuck so far up your ass.

Secondly, us Japanese Car Enthusiasts do not buy these cars so we can go drifiting on the street. Sure, it's fun to watch those videos and all, but we buy these cars to enjoy driving them. I brought my R34 GTT because I like the look of them, I appreciate the car it is, and sure, I occassionally put my foot down, but I never do anything which would or could be considered hoon behaviour or anything that may cause danger to other road users/myself.

You need to re-evaluate your situation, because if you want a Japanese Import so you can look fully-hektik-uleh, then, excuse my language, but you're a f**king idiot.

[Mr Eps]

guys lay off yeah?

he's new... as much as this thread is a bit of a larf this isn't the wasteland so please lay off the full blown nasty comments...

la bomba is being ironic when he says he yells out at chicks and wants to look hektik. he's only having a joke...

he wants an import for the same reasons you guys do... he came to SAU with the wrong mindset but has since learned a lot and changed his mindstate... so please - give the guy a chance, we were all noobs once!

la bomba - what car did you end up getting? have pics?

[Mr Eps]

But you're the fool..

1. Can't spell for shit

He's Ukranian. English is a second language to this guy, not to mention the cultural barriers he faces when entering the "import" culture at a younger age.

that's HIS excuse.

what's your excuse for saying "breading" and not "breeding" a few posts up?
