I will also be at the matsuri. I live in Japan, stationed here in the navy. Powervehicles has a pretty legit blue 180sx for about 3 or 4 grand. That's pretty reasonable for a missile. Cars aren't cheap here. My wife and I deal cars on base and work with are good Japanese buddy who buys cars at the auction. I would assume that most of power vehicles missiles also come from the auction. S14's are around 5 or 6 grand from the auction mostly standard apparence, but mostly drift ready. S13's are becoming more rare due to half cuts and shipping to other countries, so you should count that out due to cost. 180sx are about the same price as s14's.... The 4 door scene is becoming more and more popular right now so jx100, chasers and mark 2's are around 9 or 10 grand for a hell of a deal. Normal price being 12 grand. R32 skyline gtst type M are reasonable at around 3 grand Let me know if you have any questions I can help you with the best of my knowledge of car dealing here, or if you want me to get ya a car just let me know... If not, I drive a gun metal r32 gtr with green Rays gramlights and my wife drives a white r32 gtst type m with a pink roll cage. Don't be afraid to say hello at ebisu.

You wanna ship a container back, you got atleast about $10k cash (probably $15k now due to shitty exchange rate) in container fee and buy parts to fill it in with?

Yes, r32 gtst type m are missile friendly. Once we buy the car for you it is YOUR car to do what you want with. We use pay pal, so once you give us the money we will buy the car and have it waiting for you when you arrive at ebisu. There's gunna be a lot of trust involved. Japan is very different from the states... I don't know if you've been here before or not, but Japan is a very trust worthy country. You will understand what I mean once you come here. As far as shipping to another country... Powervehicles is your best source for doing that. If the car is greater than 25 years old than it can be easily shipped to the states for a couple thousand and then registered as a "classic" with proper insurance after it passes a federally required emissions test. Japan understands the value in their cars that are currently greater than 25 years old and are priced expensively because people ship them to other country's. What the Austrailians do is leave their car and key with Powervehicles and then they store the car at ebisu for your future return. I also don't know the price involved in that either, but in my opinion the smartest thing to do is buy a 1990 or 91 for the matsuri and have the time of your life with it, then store it at ebisu for later return and then when your car meets the 25 year requirement then think about shipping it back to the states. If you want to talk further and get serious about getting this car purchased then we can talk over the phone so that you will be more comfortable handing a stranger 3-4,000 bucks.

Verification: ps13 brick headlights and corners? I looked maybe a month ago on yahoo auction, but didn't see anything. I think they are getting more rare than the other ugly style headlights. But i'll look and let you know.

SHit bricks are rare as fuck. For 15000y, make sure it doesnt have any broken tabs or cracked glass, sound awfully cheap considering how much people were paying for them when I left Oki a year ago.

Andy can source what ever you are after, best to reach him directly. There are many plus's when buying from him. Access to full lot of tools, discounted new tires, tire change machines etc. You may save a few bucks initially by buying elsewhere but in the end you will pay out the ass for spares.
