when looking to import your own car there are some good people out there to help. there are also some people who are out there to make money off you. the best advise I can give is to look at a car that have lots of parts around. your spare parts will come from crash cars so parts like head lights and quarter panels are costly. in turn things like motors and gear boxs become very cheap. insurance is also a problem. as australia goes on past history. that was the biggest problem with wrxs, in the early 1990`s the wrx had a piss poor anti theift system so they were very easy to steal if you knew what you were doing. and that shows in the current price of insurance. also young drivers with imports can kiss there money goodbye. in turn if you look at the price of import cars they are great bang for your buck. for $30,000 you could land a 1993-1996 toyota supra twin turbo or a nice R33 GTR the gov. have changed the laws in the last few years so now every car that is less then 15 years old has to come into this country with no modifications. but the lends I have been seeing mean that when you import a car you will find a massive amount of performance goodies in the boot. your best bet is to go through a company such as prestige motor sport. I have heard nothing but good things from people that have used them. check out there website. www.prestigemotorsport.com.au if you need more info p.m me and I can give you some people that will help you decide if it is the right choice for you.
