Taken from the site,

"We have included the cost of shipping, import duties, GST, compliance and our service fee in this estimate. Not included is the cost of tyres, Govt. stamp duty and registration (normal licensing costs for any vehicle). Additional costs may be incurred if brake pads need to be replaced in compliance."

This means it could cost another 2-3k for tyres, stamp duty, rego...and alarm...plus some other additional cost?

Yes, and not to mention the time you will be wasting while waiting damm car to arrive and inspected and complienced. plus rego and tires.:jump:

That skyline is 6ix years old, and tip AUTO, scratches and pin dents.

apart from that its a R34 skyline.

Just like infamouse $15,000 R32 GTR's :D :bahaha:

In the process :(

yes true, my last skyline was 6 year old when I bought it, Never had problems with it :(.

If you thinking of getting one, Have you guys looked in to Mitsubish Prestige Motor section @ Albany Hwy, recently I've seen all kinds of Imports @ new shop.

its good Idea to check them out, but I bet price will be different. I mean HUGE difference. :)

i personally wouldnt buy an import car from a dealership.

in my eyes they are people with the capital and knowledge to patch up dodgy cars to sell for a good profit.

I would rather take my chances and import, or search locally for a private seller.

    • Thanks, plan is to drain all fluid tomorrow and do smoke test to find out the leak.   Appreciate your help and want to understand how the system work. So cooling is achieved by the long loop not any rad? The diagram seems to suggest it connects to somewhere inside the cabin and I thought that is a cooler inside firewall. If you look at the diagram it seems to show it connects to something inside firewall. I tried chasing it but not easy unless I take loads off   i am confident pump is good as fluid goes in and it gets soft( steering) but as soon as I turn engine off , loads of bubble come to surface and overflow. When engine is on , fluid level is below minimum but when off it shoots off and thinking it is sucking air in. I suspect aluminium pipe may have a crack line or whole   smoke test with no fluid should be a good start and if needed will remove the pump   In addition, the one going under the engine bay is high pressure line and one directly connecting from pump to resorvoir is return/ low pressure?   finally I searched and suggestion is to use dexron 2 but that is discontinued so bought dexron 3 as all research suggest it is compatible and shouldn’t cause any issues/ blow seals. I bought two liter of dexron 3 motul atf
    • Don't worry about. Just don't try to drive hard enough to make boost and you'll be fine.
    • Yes. This has already been said. It is a loop of hardline in front of the radiator. Because.... the pump is on the LHS and the steering rack hydraulic connections are where they always are on a RHD steering rack....on the RHS. The high pressure line goes down under the engine, along the crossmember, like it does on all Skylines. Don't just throw expensive braided hoses/other kits at it. Work out what is wrong and fix that.
    • Still got the afm on the intake, clamps are shut tight, only loose hose is the one that goes from the j pipe towards the IACV, since it's next to impossible to find a factory hose and the barbs are different sizes (I'm still using clamps on this hose to try and help it seal on the iacv side) I've ordered parts to make up the hotside of the intercooler pipes, I'll plumb it in and see what happens in a few days I suppose The turbo's internally gated, can I just unscrew the tension rod to let the gate open?
    • Did this ever go further ? Would love some updated info
