Hi Everyone,

Im looking at importing a r32 GTR (struggling to find what I want available privately).

Currently I have 3 importers Im considering going through and was just wanting peoples opinion or info if they have dealt with them.

1. Top Secret - Pretty much heard great info about them, but they are out in Blacktown and im near Menai (not that it is a real issue)

2. Xtreme Motorsports (along Parra Rd) - Spoke to one of the guys there on Sunday and got a pretty good vibe.

3. Just Jap - Spoke to the guys at Pulse Racing, who worked on my gtst, they recommended them (10min from home) for their imports.

Top Secret I keep reading good reviews, Xtreme Motorsports I could find a little bit about them, and Just Jap I could not find any opinions when it came to their imports.

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers

one of my mates said that Nagoya Motors (along Princes Highway) is pretty good too!!! they specialise in Skylines and are happy to import for you... not too pricey either!!! Xtreme Motorsports are pretty good too... they usually have pretty sweet cars in there.... the owner, Joe, LOVES his GTRs too!!!!!!

Iron chef imports +10

Got us our 'family' car and we're in QLD.

He can be a bit slow with emails but it happens when you have 10million dipsh*ts a day wanting to buy but don't have the cash in hand.

Get your money ready and suit up for the ride!

All of the above can do a good job exporting your car to Oz.

1 Top Secret are very good in their communications through Jack and Garry. They run track days for their clients + they have a backup service dept.

2 Xtreme will attempt for sure that your car gets a trouble free ride through Joe

3 Just Jap may not turn over as many cars as above, since Steve imports lots of half cuts for spares, but there's no complaint from Kim who got a R34 GTR N1 through them. And Paul at Pulse Racing will only make that recommendation with you in mind. Afterwards, JJ will also give you a good discount on spares.

4 Nagoya through Alex will certainly look after your needs with good communication.

5 Iron Chef has good efficient spotters in Japan who'll only give a tick on a good car. The freight contact is cheaper than some others but does take great care. And Kristian ensures that your car gets smooth compliancing here in Sydney through Todd at JapLink Haberfield. There's a backup service dept there too with RB specialist Kazu. My last two GTRs have come this way.

steer clear of 'brad bottchers used cars' in Maryborough Brisbane. Had a god -aweful experiance with buying my first GTR off him. Save yourself the hassle and go elsewhere.

Whoa!!!

Long way from Sydney too!!!

Thanks everyone, you have all helped a little by telling me they are all good + iron chef... Although didnt really narrow my selection.

Now its time to bite the bullet and make some calls I think

I've taken on a kitchen hand to handle all those kinds of emails now lol - and yes, 70-80 emails a day (not including a similar number of spam emails...). And of course, when you do the right thing and answer emails, THEY ASK MORE QUESTIONS!! Haha

I bought my car through Just Jap, great to deal with and will always remember you and ask how the car is going

Like Terry said Paul at Pulse Racing (also my tuner) will only recommend someone he would use and can do the job

Great, thanks guys.

Just Jap seemed good when I was there, the guy I spoke to pretty sure was Steve, definitely a huge fan of his GTRs ... except he was suggesting I consider an evo as a daily as oppose to a GTR (Although I still want a GTR).

Justin. Yeah itd be good to know how it all goes for you.

      The interesting part of tests like IM240 is they measure the exhaust output. But they never measure the gases going into the engine... Imagine doing the test in a densely populated city with higher CO2 levels around... Instant disadvantage...

      I have two German Shepherds that like to bite things that are in places they shouldn't be. Plus the cars/batteries on chargers are inside a locked garage, inside that fully fenced and locked yard. If you can get the car out, you can have it, as I'll be having one hell of a laugh at your expense.

      Looks like they changed the wording in the manual for the new model. I have a different model. Mine is CC1206. Not CC1206-XLI. Mine doesn't support lithium at all. I can't find the manual for my model online and they don't list the model on the Century website anymore either. In my manual it says what I quoted and that they recommend to not leave it on 🤷‍♂️ Sounds like you'd be fine with this one now.

      Thanks for actually answering every single point! I noticed the date only after posting. And yes, looks like things have changed a little bit since then. FWIW, looks like Government Gazette No 253 has the current emissions test procedure. Sounds pretty reasonable altogether. One thing I learned from this is that it's possible to check whether a catalyst does any work by measuring the temperature. Catalyst outlet temp is at least 40°C higher than inlet temps if there is a reaction happening. I'd be curious to check this on mine but don't have a thermometer. Because purely going by smell it can't be doing much. Personally I'd be okay to pay for the test as long as it's within reason. My main concern would be to lose my rego because it definitely wouldn't pass the test in its current state. I'll see if I can do a bit more digging and see what's involved in doing this nowadays.   To be fair I don't think it's stopping many people from doing the modifications anyway. It just puts a barrier up to doing things right
