well not really, a gtr in not so good condition can be had as cheap as
400,000yen or around 5,500CAD at the time i write this. but transporting
costs at least 1,000$ for RORO. if you bring a bunch of cars over in a
container it's cheaper but risks damage. then there is 14% tax thanks to
government, air conditioning fee of 100$, then legalization fees, etc. a
5,000$ car can end up at over 10K. nice cars get more tax. a super clean
gtr is worth 15-16k, nismo version is worth more.
I hope Obama can change that! hahahahahaha Though seriously, the standards
for cars here in the US suck! In fact, Japan is doing more than the US to
help stop global warming. While in America, we come up with ideas but never
actually do any of them. Yet we still drive big ass SUV's but it's illegal
to have skylines. Oh the irony!!!!! lol
they can pass smog with minimal mods. it depends more on the testing
conditions than the car itself. the readings are supposed to be taken
shortly after the engine is started, they will pass smog if done like that.
they do require some structural mods though to pass impact safety reqs.
well i hope we get more small cars from japan and europe: they give the
masses what they want good fuel eco and reliablity cuz their so simple.
then they can use that money theyll make on making for the 1% of us that
wants something thall make us smile everyday
He's right, i bought an r32 gtr for 13.5k, however, in saying that, i'd
take an r32 gtr over a 33 any day...i can't take the commdore factor lol,
no offence mate, but 33's are everywhere...and there's too many 33 gts-t's
with the gtr body kits/ spoilers, etc
@btemtd mate ur thinking of a 34 gtr a imported 32gtr with 80k on clock is
only 14K and a 33gtr is 17k and a 34gtr is 30-50k, no one is paying 25k for
a 32gtr no matter what spec it is. and i am talking about good condition
ones. owned a 32gtst, now 33gtr.
@driverdriver1 I would say I am about to go there and get 1 for that price
but that in canadian money is like 10k american I think I can find a r32
here for that price and save my gas money lol
the only good thing about my country guatemala is that is not ilegal to
have skylines and a GTR R32 cost in my country 16,000$ and if you want it
left handed the conversion cost 2,000$
@Leokun7 in 2014 you will be able to import 89 skyline gtr's because they
will be over 25 years old and will not be required to meet the
emission/safety standards
They are also that cheap in Japan, seems like they are up-charging in
Australia big time. The GT-R's that are more in the price range you speak
of are R34's.
good working order, as if someone can tell from a photo whether or not the
pistons are corroded or if the rotors are warped.... gimme a break.
