Have a look at these guys. I'll be using them to take a car to NZ in late May. They also service Australia.

oh sorry mate, I didn't realise there was more than one Rezz.

I was asking you for help mate, your the super moderator in Japan right? :rofl:

Btw, I found a cheaper hr31 gts-x for only 10,000 yen which finishes tomorrow night. I have the cash, and what i'm looking to do is get the person who ships it a bonus for picking up the car and delivering the cash, then shipping it or.... arrange for the seller to drop it off, one of the two. But i'm so serious about this, I really want it

So if you can help it would be greatly appreciated, if you want money that's fine

Regards

Andrew

I think you'll find it easier to go with an Importer ...

I was thinking doing the same but its not just buying the car there's more to it than just buying a car.

You have paperwork to deal with then you need a contact or reliable person to organise the car to be delivered and then get sent to shipping port, then more paperwork plus and organise it when the car lands on OZ land, then compliance which should be easy as it will be under the 15yr rule and you can do it yourself...

But if you have experience importing a car before then go for it I might even ask you to do mine LOL

Good luck anyway

Yeah, I know there is a lot of paperwork. But I didn't want to have to spend $1k on an importer to do all the paper work

I know there will be import duties, GST (10% of purchased item is 10,000yen is about $13aus.) and government stamp duty on top of the shipping prices. Do you know a rough cost to get from Jap to Bris/aus?

Is there anything more i need to know about importing?

Here's the main 3 carriers we use at J-Spec, I've included the telephone numbers in japan, they have english speaking reps who you can talk to. They might deal direct with public, or they might refer you to a local agent who can do the shipping booking and customs, deregistration etc for you.

I spoke to the guys here if they could do it for you for a lower rate or something because they're not actively searching for a car for you or getting a mechanic check or anything, they said they'll have to see what would be involved before they can give any quotes, so I'll let you know.

thanks Funky, The auction finishes at 9pm qld time. I have to know before I bid as I don't want to be stuck.

Should I bid anyway and take the chance?

    • Yeah, unless you're doing it by the book, your data is probably not useful. Boiling point drops rapidly with only just a little water in it.
    • How hard are you tracking it? I have 378 in front and 355 in the back with decent pads and my brakes were spongy after a decent session with lots of braking. It was a short track though but got up to around 190-200 max. be keen to hear. Mind you, I havent flushed my fluid so thats probably part of reason.
    • Awesome thanks for the reply Man! I already plugged up the back just cause I can’t take a chance on it leaking on me again haha. But i will fab a catch can with 2x for the cam covers and a lower one for the sump vent.    Now as this will drain back as well , Is there any concern I should have of the oil being drained back. I don’t run e85 or anything .   2nd question is, from the picture does it seem that my sump fitting is above oil level? Silly question but I rather have someone’s experienced opinion lol 
    • How good is it though when you can run the AC without the engine running to cool the car off before you get in it during summer? God I'll miss a bunch of the EV features when it leaves on Monday
    • I hear you were headed for a track day yesterday... Thread clearly needs updates
