Hi Guy's

I have a R33 GTS-25t that I imported into NZ that can't be complied even though it has Dual airbags and is a 1996 Series 2. (We have different rules to you guys)

My cousin lives in Sydney and is interested in buying it but Im not sure on the exact process for sending a car into Aus, I realise there is 10% duty and 10% GSt but what other costs are involved?

Who in sydney can comply R33's and any idea on approx costs?

Basically don't want to send him a car and then him not be able to do anything with it, so need to try and sort out as much as I can before it goes.

Cheers

James

Go here and search for who can comply R33s, there are plenty of workshops who can do so.

Costs

- cost of car

- freight

- customs duty = 10% x (cost of car plus cost of freight)

- gst = 10% x (cost of car plus cost of freight+customs duty)

- customs and quarantine clearance fees

(approx $500 if you go through a customs agent)

- cost of compliance through a RAWS (was $4000 when I got my car, I think it's a lot cheaper now)

Just remember that under the SEVS scheme, the car cannot be accident damaged (there are very small tolerances for accident damage, best to be safer than sorry), and the car must be returned to stock at compliance.

You need to speak to one of those workshops, see if they will work with the car to comply it. They would probably want to know about any mods / damage to the car before they make an undertaking to comply it.

Thanks guys will get in touch with them, The car was auction grade 4 so is pretty tidy, when you say no accident damage, your meaning siginifcant damage i.e chassis/rust etc.

Im fairly confident on that front it shouldbe fine.

Will let you know how I get on.

Email Zoran it [email protected] sending him the auction report and your cousins details and he will be able to comply it.

If it is a good car it is simple as, tell him you got the contact info off the Skyline Forum as well.

    • @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)
