Cheap because it's only the starting bid and the reserve price. Auction's quiet simple reserve price up > Highest bidder wins like any other auction. Your agent will be doing all this on your behalf, Solid deals can perhaps made through a private seller or dealership.

Correct me if i am wrong to the pros out there :yucky:

i imported 2 cars from J-Spec (V35 and a R34 GTR V-Spec) both were under budget and top notch.

the whole process from winning to You in the car took me about 2.5 months for the V35, 4 months for R34 due to being Christmas and heap of modifications on the car from Jap.

Ben is always nice to deal with and prompt.

with the Yen as it is, nice time to import, i have to say...

What Is

1 Fob compared to 1 AUD?

Note: Dumb Question; If I was to take the turbs out of a GTR R34 6SPD Manual would the car run like an N/A or would it loose compression and be a total shitbox?

Hahahahahahaahhahah.

Post has teh Lolz.

Wouldn't be a p plater would you buddy? Or on your Ls?

1FOB is roughly 0.56 AUD. close enough.

Gtr will run like poo and you will lose to VN commodores.

For te lulz.

re-read the post and it made me think.... Who in their sane mind would pay 40-50K for an R34GTR and remove the turbos!

Oh and OP, you were on the Jspec site... Did you bother reading the Jspec Infobase, which provides you answers to all of your questions? Just a thought.....

Better off buying a VN Commodore and driving that until you have full license.

FOB= Free On Board. It is the cost of the car plus your agent costs of getting the car onto the boat in Japan.

So, the car may cost you 5000 yen, plus FOB charge of 1000 yen = 6000 yen FOB

actually i think the F means Freight... but then again... why cant they just say inland shipping or something thats easier to understand :/

that would be sacrilegious ..... dont do it!!!!!!!

a turbo car has lower compression because of the turbos compressing air into the engine so if u take out the turbos it would run rich with not enough air pressure in each cylinder to give the power thats supposed to come from a RB26

      My hold point for future mods is that I want a OEM detachable hard top first, but, finding one is a pain, MX5 Mania are looking for one for me, but, as hens teeth are more common, finding one in Australia is proving problematic  I can get a OEM one from overseas, hell, you can still get new ones in 'Merica, but, shipping is a absolute killer and I cannot justify the cost, or the risk of it being damaged during transport As for the aftermarket hardtops, whilst they do the job of being a hard top, and are fine for a track car, they don't seal well (read: leak like a sieve in the rain), and you need a plastic/poly rear window, plus they are a bolt in option only and not made to be easily removed I liked how the hard top on my NB could be fitted, and removed, by myself, in less than 5 minutes I know it sounds bad, but I'm waiting for someone to write off a car with one so I can swoop in on their pain, it will go to a good home though, so my guilt of this is tempered

      No, you don't want to plug the vacuum line, as that will turn that side of the booster into an air spring and probably make it feel worse. I'm not saying that the GTR master itself doesn't need a booster. I haven't paid attention to the GTR one to know what size it is cf the non-GTR ones. But when you think about it - they have to do the same job, which is to move a little slave piston a few mm to do what it is supposed to do, and that final action is the same on all the cars. So, it is very unlikely that the GTR MC is any different than the others, because it has the same pedal stroke and the same output requirement. The booster just makes it feel easier. I'd suggest you probably have an actual hydraulic problem. It's totally common on these old shitboxes.
