wow, two threads on one car...........................
Bit of a blatant plug for Iron Chef, the guy whos importing my car for me.
He currently has a minter trueno up for import.
What do you guys think? relatively good price!!!
Great TOFU delivery car!!
wow, two threads on one car...........................
9.9k landed plus you still need to pay $800-1300 to make to ADR SPEC and than need a R.W.C(check anything it need to replace eg. Tyres,most likely to change and like the tiny little stuff..
You need all these done above if not don't even think about registering your becouse you can't yet(not that easy mate)
for the car fully on the road rego'd and stuff it would be some where around 13k....12k only if you know peolpe or has a easy joint to do your car.
9.9k landed is pertty exppensive than....Plus the car is fairly stock I rather look a JDM TURENO/LEVIN already here or a ADM one mild done up with nice rims.
JDM takes a dump on converted ADM
RWC? South Australia......Zing!
RT142 Estate.
AJPS.
Care to explain why a jdm sprinter is better than a converted adm one?
You save about $5000-$10000 converting it to JDM and about 6 months to a yr of stuffing around making it JDM spec
As I said find a JDM TURENO/LEVIN already here or a ADM to JDM spec = No 6 months to a yr of stuffing around making it JDM spec!!
On the other hand after buying a Imported JDM TURENO/LEVIN you would have apply for a Import approval for the from A.C.T DOTARS thats about 3 weeks wait to get a hand on the approval till than you can't ship your car as yet!....
It will all add up to about 2-3 months of wait(fairly painful I tell you)
I stated that car will be around 12-13k(it really depends where you to do the job)......On the other hand could get a nice clean JDM TURENO/LEVIN and a ADM to JDM SPEC for under 12-13k no worry's!!
Just take your time guys and look around!
That's what I'm getting at, why waste your money making something stock jdm when you can go nuts and have a heavy modded local sprinter with parts that are far superiour to the jdm stock parts.
We all know jdm has:
Blue top 4age
Vented front and solid disk's rear
Lsd
But that doesn't matter when you can go 20v or 4agze
Bigger and better brakes + suspension from another car
And an a/m 1.5 or 2 way lsd that's nice and tight and brand new.
That trueno will most likely cost around $12,000 to get driving on the road. If you look at some of the other sprinters for sale in that price bracket and the modifications they have done to them, it kinda puts this car into perspective. I just can't justify such a huge price for a car that is near stock.
no redlines, no black interior = NO CARE
