--------------------
Personally i prefer to insert my nitrous {N20}
rectally for the addded head buzz and long lasting effect

Those prices are complianced. I have seen them on www.prestigemotorsport.com.au Heres an example from their mailing list.
The following vehicle has just come into stock with a supplier in Japan for 510,000 yen FOB. The total cost in Australia is estimated to be $15,300 plus tyres, Govt. stamp duty and registration (normal licensing costs for any vehicle). Shipping, import duties, GST, compliance and our service fee are all included in the estimate.
1994 Mitsubishi FTO GPX Mivec
Tiptronic auto
55,000 kms
Stock standard and clean
Condition notes: Good overall condition. Interior is excellent. Some blemishes on the front and rear bumpers. RHR quarter panel has some scratches. Door inserts are red, these will be put back to factory condition before shipping.
Nearly impossible to get a Pulsar GTiR now. Almost all compliance plates have been sold, you can't import them under the new system.

Heres a GTiR i found 2 : The following vehicle has just come into stock with a supplier in Japan for 335,000 yen FOB. The total cost in Australia is estimated to be $13,900 plus tyres, Govt. stamp duty and registration (normal licensing costs for any vehicle). Shipping, import duties, GST, compliance and our service fee are all included in the estimate. Compliance would have to be undertaken in QLD. This can all be arranged for customers in other States, with the vehicle transported to them once completed.
1991 Nissan Pulsar GTiR
4WD 2L turbo (SR20DET)
5 speed
Gunmetal grey
Approx. 100,000 kms (odometer shows 54,000 kms)
Boost controller
Turbo timer
Air pod
Lowered suspension
Condition notes: Mechanically fine and very quick, but body needs a little work - driver's door needs a re-spray, right side of rear bumper needs repair. Interior is in good condition.
Found these both on the mailing list I mention before.

yeh jap imports are nice and amazingly quite cheap to buy -its something to consider for there price and advanced performance. ive noticed there's a lot of imports from the nissan department you can get which are speedy in performance - i was wondering if anyone knows the specs on a nissan bluebird sss altesa - what i know so far is that they come in two engines types one is a 2.0l sr20det and the other something less powerful which i think is a 1.8l
wtf brezzing thru the jap imports scene recently and i've noticed there's no lancer gsr early Evo series 1, 2 or 3 gsr's for sale. infact i think no jap import places sell them as im told know one can compliance them here in oz atm. Well not lately but defiantly in the past i'd had seen sum lancer evo's right in our teritory driving around on the streets and i mean the original evo's not sum fake one with a bodykit on it -which comes to my question- how did these people purchase them? |

They might of come through the personal import loophole. If you live in another country and own a car there for 12 months(used to be three months) you can import your car as a personal import. BTW the bluebird Altessa 4wd is no longer importable. Whats here us what you have with that model

personal import loophole sounds ok - well yeh just tobad to hear that you got to live in overseas country for 12 months compared to 3 months. yeh dam laws-laws-laws you just cant escape! shame that you cant import the jap version bluebird SSS-we here in oz always seem to bloody miss out on all the best jap performance cars can offer -bugger. i mean just next door to oz is new zealand, iv'e heard you can basically import any car if you live there-those lucky bastards. 
yeh certainly back in the good old cordia days were the times iv'e seen the EVO's - hmm come to think about it i guess they probably got them through the personal import loophole which was set at 3 months back then as odin has pointed out. now due to 12 month living overseas - times have changed and thats why iv'e seen no EVO's recently.
