That's pretty much normal price for an R33, without the added JDM tax and registration stuff.

I don't know if the company is legit or not but I've gone to their website and their prices are realistic compared to the prices here for them.

if entire cars are that cheap, how much do you think people can get clips for...

I'll be running a track car in the next year or two...Might as well buy something ultra JDM if the price is close to what I'd be spending here?...

yeah cant complain about 5400 for an r33 according to their website they go to the car auctions in japan a lot and you can give them a deposit and theyll find any car you want them to

Oh snap son. I miscalulated. That is a good deal. I was thinking 5400 quid.

There's a reason all the prices are in Pounds. I seem to remember him saying that they don't import to the US due to the very strict import laws, and almost all of his business is to Britain and Europe.

I need to buy a parts car in the next few months. I'd like to be able to buy a whole car, instead of a car that has been cut in half. Think they'd be a good place to look for that?

those cars are pretty cheap seeing their descriptions with mods...

i dont know man....check that places credentials 20 times before you buy...
be very very cautious...or even fly out there yourself and make a vaction out of it if u got a little extra cash.

Yeah, I've been looking around trying to find a good place for a parts car for a while. Either they are EXTEREMELY overpriced, or they give off a shady feel.

^^ i sent them an email ....theyll import to the US, this is part of the email they sent me:

"A good estimate for preparation and transport to Boston is about
5,000USD. However, please keep in mind that any JDM vehicle imported to the USA has to be brought in as parts. The engine and transmission must
be shipped separately from the car and then re-installed after arrival.
In regards to registering to drive legally in the US the most popular
method we know of is to register it as a kit car on the state level"

also I asked and they said that they can find modded rx-7's for under $8,000USD since they are so common in japan and R34's for $30-50k

that's pretty cool, that's also why you see alot of shops having these 'kit' cars, and show up at booths/events...

Ghost is a good seller... a few of my buddies on here have done business w/ him and his car prices are on key w/ if not maybe cheaper than used car sales here. Buy one of his cars NOW.
