Possibly having an option to live and work in Japan for 18mths and off course would like to bring a car back as a personal import.

Racking my brains on what would be a good car to bring back, off course things like BNR34 are an option but would like to see if anyone has any better ideas.

Budget of under/around 5,000,000 yen.

The private treaty cars that haven't been graded need to be checked out thoroughly for rust as well as other essentials.

Love the list Terry but most would be well above 5mil, especially something like NSX Type R.

Desmosedici is a good one, I could get that and wifee could get a car to get around while there.

Love the rotors - been actually looking at a RX-7 Spirit R Type A......because I'm predictable.

Actually, something out of left field, a new Civic Type R.

    • Yeah, hard to find and a pain in the ass to change with the transverse engine. I’ve worked on a GTiR before and it’s not a job I’d ever want to do again. theres a company in South Africa that makes RS3 gearbox adaptors for the AWD SR20 including gearbox mounts, so I could modernise it and go a dual clutch with paddles. For now tho, it ticks all the boxes. Super cheap, can throw the kids and their junk in the back, and SR20 that I can turbo cheaply, a CVT that’s not a dog’s breakfast like the V35, and has 80% interchangeable parts with stuff I can source from the wreckers cheaply…. But it’s still unique. I love the wagon back of the Autech version. It’s cheap enough that I can buy another stock manual FWD Primera with SR20VE, swap the gearbox to the N15 pulsar short gear ratio box, swap out the brakes to the R32 ones I pulled off my 32, register it on club plates and take it racing. $1300 shipping from NZ. Heaps of parts and aftermarket builders for transverse SR20’s in NZ.
    • Hard to say, just pop the rocker covers off and have a look if you think it's cammed. You probably need to replace the valve cover gasket/half moons anyways.
    • From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 😢
