Need Help Please... Anybody from Japan
 
Hello! Wow long time no post for me. Hope all is well for everybody. Anyways, I need some info. I'm going to japan in the end of the month. I wan't to pick up 2 Skyline R33's from 1996-1998. I know there was somebody here posting a lot of cars from dealers in Japan. I need good links, phone numbers or even junkyards. where i can start shopping around and getting ball parks of what I can buy these suckers for. I've seen as low as $4,500 u.s. with over 90K KM. Please help. Thank you so much.

your ------ retarded if you think you are finding a GTR for around 5g's. I would also set up all port ---- and shipping prior to leaving the USA. plan on about 5 grand per car to get them to the US. that doesnt include anything going through customs and all of that. If you dont take my advice, kiss the car good bye. Also, did you read on motorex. (the only people allowed to legalize the 33 and 34's in the states) yeah, hes in jail. good luck. :6

if you want a GTR come with 10g's per car for the car.

search yahoo auctions.





and yes, I'm in Japan. Okinawa to be exact.

I have all my shipping set up. I have a container already for shipping I know the fee's to be paid. Your wrong about 4000 dollars. And it's a lot easier to register then you think. R33 96-98 is the only car that can be registered with only changing to obd2, cats, o2 sensor, and ecu. To register a r34 for a first timer you need to buy two. You have to crash one. You're gonna spend around 2800 to get it down and add what you need to do to register. And I know about motorex ( he's my idle) I'll probably pick up where he left off. I know the ropes, I know how it all works. He just made too much money and got cought the stupid dumb greedy bitch. He should of just sold 18-20 a year and still made over 5-8 k for each.

Re: Need Help Please... Anybody from Japan
 
I've been following this skyline bs for about 3 years now, and the only reason I've stayed away from buying one is it will be way too much of a pain to deal with. Currently, there is no working OBD2 system for a skyline, almost all the R33's were done a 1995 models. The NHTSA basically shafted the skyline community by making it so only 1996-1998 R33's with dual SRS can be eligible for importation, with full knowledge that you can modify a 1995 R33 to have the passenger side airbag, there was even a short petition to allow the 1995 to be added to the eligibility list, which was declined. Basically, NHTSA knows there is no working obd 2 system, which keeps all obd2 skylines from being federalized due to EPA, and they won't even let you bring in an OBD1 car anymore. The only way, at this point in time to get a Skyline into the country is to send it over as parts; which can be done if you buy the car in Japan, take it apart there and send it in as a Chassis. Kind of like how the nobles are imported.
