    Default Looking for some help / advice with importing an AE86

    Just looking to buy my first AE86 and I can't find anything in Australia that's to my liking so i've decided to try and import one instead, i've found a few sites to have some stock like goo-net and kamikaze drivers but i'm not sure how to go about this process as i've seen suggestions for auctions too the sign up fee seems abit farfetched when u can't actually check the stock prior.
    if i were to buy one from a dealer Is there some form of paper work i can get prior to purchase to check the compliance to our RWC with damage etc and what are some reliable dealers that people can refer.

    Thanks

    But best to find someone who actually knows 86's, ProK in Vic use to import clean ae86's awhile back, don't know if he still does.
    And yes, its going to cost $$$$$

    abit old but the same principles still apply

    ProK is still importing cars, I used him to import my coupe about 6-9 months ago. I would say for how good a car I ended up with it was cheaper than anything I could have bought locally.
