It is also cheaper to do the same here.

b16aegcivic is just talking out his ass like most people on the web.

 

no I mis-read the original post...I thought it read Japan to US not Japan to UK....geez sorry to make the mistake. I dont just talk out of my ass. It was a simple mistake.

 

import cheaper than local??? think about it~ I would think not but hey i dont' live in UK so i have no clue.. hahah..

best way to find out is to call your local brokers and ask them

 

It's cheaper to import one from Japan to Canada than buy one in Canada, but the problem is it won't be legal to drive on the street. Only imported vehicles that are 15 years and older are street legal here.

 

unless you have the hook up with the registration issue. then it would be much cheaper to find one in the states for it is super expensive and sometimes not worth the trouble.

 

Do people even read anymore?

On the S2ki forums, there were a few people importing S2k's from Japan to the UK, because it was much cheaper to do so. I'm guessing it is the same deal with ITR's as well. Good luck on your search, and if you get one, I'm willing to trade my 15" USDM's for your 16" JDM wheels at any time...I'll even let you pay for shipping.

 

damned sepos! nothing but bollucks eh mates? In Oz there are some new import regualations regarding importing a car that is available at a local dealer, any exception is that the car needs to be 12 years old or older. might want to check that out first. Catch up to ya...

 

Sorry b16EG just sick of people mouthing off ya know.

Twinring is correct.

They stopped sending JDM R's here in 2001 and stopped all R's this year. Oz now has the type S just like the states. Which means I hope to get a pretty penny for my mint 00 when I fly home for good.
