Just give Todd over at Japlink Motors a call to help you out. I recently dealt with him for a personal import and the service was excellent. They know their stuff, their eesponsive and will help you get things right.

Highly suspect for your first ever post on the forum to be plugging one particular company Todd... Uh.....I mean Hipogtr. Tell us a little more about this 'personal import' of yours or is the make and model confidential? It was probably a mail order bride.

Suspend your cynicism, Alkatraz - Hipogtr (presuming it's the same person I think it is) just brought in an R35 with an entire Greddy catalogue on it, and yes Todd (and me too, by association...)helped him with it.

Thanks for the post, Kristian. Also appreciate all the work that you did to help with the import - great job and highly recommended for anyone wanting some support importing!

Alkatraz, I'll be happy to post photos in due course. Its a Stage 0 R35 at this point - the way I would have like it to arrive from Nissan. :)

I see a few members do not know me well.

Yes I help a lot of members when I can and a few are into me for engine builds, major repairs (pay as you go jobs - things you do for friends)

I will help anyone until they burn me.

The R35 refered to in this thread is the best I have ever had the privilege to see let alone work on and yes I have been to AutoSalon Japan.

If you get a chance to see his car you will probably agree, as the owner is like the rest of us - he loves his skylines.

If he every sold the car I would be at the head of the line to buy her.

      @Ozdavroz Not going to get a better deal than that. Cash up front and ongoing payments. 🤑

      I wouldn't even move it like gTSBoy is saying. I'd seriously do what Duncan is saying. Unplug the injectors, and unplug the fuel pump.  Pull the spark plugs out. Have a look in quickly with a bore scope if you want. At most, you can't spray a bit of oil into the bores so there is lubricant in there while you crank it. (Don't fill it, as it's only going to enter the exhaust, or spit at you out the spark plugs holes. Before cranking the engine on the starter, after a 5 year sit I'd probably prime the oil system manually. Easiest way to do so is to look at buying an oil filter relocation block, fit it to the engine. The pressure line going into the engine on this block you can then shove into some sort of oil pump, or put it into a bottle, with that hose going to the bottom. Fill bottle up with oil. Now seal the bottle and add a compressed air line to the top of the bottle. Feed compressed air in, about 20psi will be PLENTY. This will pump oil through the motor. Be aware, it also means it will drain back to the sump, so make sure you don't end up over filling the motor Now bolt the old oil setup back on (or fully install the remote filter system).   This way you've at least pushed fresh oil everywhere, then you're letting the motor crank to then do its own oiling. Then I'd tap the key to make sure it can start to crank, if the motor free bumps, then I'd just hit the key and let it crank. After letting it crank and seeing you can get real engine oil pressure, put new spark plugs in, reconnect the fuel system electrics, and send it.   Additionally, you can look to remove the fuel feed line to the rail, and divert it to a tank so you can get the bottom of the tank shit out, and just incase there's some crud sitting anywhere that gets passed the fuel filter (or is already ahead of it).   If fuel injection at the injectors ends up appearing to be a problem, you can dump the injectors into an ultrasonic cleaner for a quick flush clean out. Note this isn't as good as new injectors, or getting them pro cleaned and flowed

      All I can say is, that's still bloody awesome! No plans on caging it I'm guessing?

      It seems you'd like your Skyline to go to a great home, that can keep it as a beautiful museum piece.  I feel I can provide the perfect place for it, however, I'm not sure I can justify so much money for a Skyline that has only been crashed 3 times. Due to this and market prices, would you be against me buying it for $100.00, with $60 to be paid upfront, and the remaining $40 to be paid annually in equal payments?

      I did say no low balling (Insert copy and paste article from Motor mag with complete history of R32 GTR development and racing history here)
