fantastic!

explain me this; how did they road register what are both imports?

[Nicko]

Imports have always been able to be registered...

As long as they are imported as per the correct rules & met the ADRs

I think you're confusing "grey import" with "track only import".

[timbo]

I though that cars could only be imported if they met specific year requirements? Also would those rally 86's be private or Toyota imported?

[mack 10]

These are rally cars. They fall under a completely different set of rules.

[timbo]

so how do they have standard rego plates? any info would be good, just find it interesting that we raced 4age ae86's but could never buy them!

[AJPS]

there was 80 with 4age sold here to comply with rules

mostly given to toyota execs wives etc

[timbo]

really? i did always wonder how they were homologated. i guess they would be the rarest 86's around if there are any left.

[timbo]

Well its not a rally car, it looks like someone strolled onto Lakeside by accident!

FF to 1:00.
