kyteler Posted June 16, 2021 Posted June 16, 2021 Stoked for you brother. Hopefully it flies through compliance when it gets here! 1 Quote
oldrx7 Posted June 16, 2021 Posted June 16, 2021 Cheers mate! Feels like it's taken forever to get to this point, yet it's only been a few months since January. First time doing this, so will see how much of headache compliance is, but yeh, fingers crossed it's only a few things. 1 Quote
kyteler Posted June 16, 2021 Author Posted June 16, 2021 Can't be any worse than trying to buy a rotary from a Kiwi "rota" guy who is vague with details and reluctant to let anyone view... 2 1 Quote
xsspeed Posted June 16, 2021 Posted June 16, 2021 Happy for you man, fingers crossed for straight forward compliance 2 Quote
cletus Posted June 16, 2021 Posted June 16, 2021 Sweet! The best thing about an import is it is far less likely to have had any dickfingers touching it 7 Quote

Fresh rebuild g, no expense spared Only I lost the receipts and forgot who did it 3 Quote
oldrx7 Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 Yeh did see that - will be using sktchy pplates though, had them a long time now and being a fresh import there'll be no 'attachment' to a black plate. The car should be in my shed mid july so will update then with a few more pics 2 Quote
Dell'orto Posted June 19, 2021 Posted June 19, 2021 Ooosh, looks heaps like my old one from back in the day, though mine was 12AT and manual. Super plush car for a mid 80s sedan! 1 Quote

Dell'orto Posted June 21, 2021 Posted June 21, 2021 Nah owned it well before the days of cheap digital cameras, let alone cell phones, but honestly nearly identical exterior-wise. From super vague memory it had conventional door mounted mirrors though. 1 Quote
gibbon Posted July 13, 2021 Posted July 13, 2021 so what was the final dollar shipping amount to get it to your door? if you dont mind me asking. I often think about importing a car but it seems to be hidden cost hell Quote

I often think about importing a car but it seems to be hidden cost hell Don’t mind at all. Through auto hub shipping was $1550 - although as of July 1st there’s an increase they’ve said, I got in just before. But you also pay auto hub the GST bill too, so that’s 15% of the car purchase price. All things to factor in into buying something, just like the broker fee and paper work fees. This equaled roughly $1800 1 Quote
