  1. Lol that beast has been on trademe for as long as I remember
  2. Are those fluro straps just tie-downs holding the supercharger on? Oh dear lol
  3. Id like to see how aerodynamic it is.. I reakon that vent will diflect alot of the on-coming air up over the scoop instead of into it. Will never know Might be why he got the v8 scoop, imagine with the stock one lol wouldn't be too effective I can imagine
  4. Agree on that not practical for him, might still be good having the air circulating out from under the bonnet still? But yeah, I just like it cos it's unique lol
  5. the vent maybe the scoop definately not as I bought one off the same guy he bought it off on tm [quote name='NTYCME said: looks like it could just be a factory bonnet and the vent has been added into it Yeah I thought it might of due to never having seen one before
  6. Was going through old pictures of cars and found this.. If anyone knows where or how to get one, they should share it with us, I think they look damned cool lol have never seen one like it
  7. was cool back in the day of autosalon
  8. http://www.trademe.co.nz/a.aspx?id=415141922 JESUUS!
  9. true but changing boot and spoiler and tail lights wouldn't be too difficult, if he hasn't chopped it up that's likely what they would do to avoid attention?
  10. It may be legit, but those two factors now make it questionable IMO.. quite a coincidence
  11. My parents recently relocated to NSW, they brought over both their cars (c70 volvo and 2003 Legacy b4) It took an extremely long time from when they landed to getting it to the point of picking up the cars (read 2 months) Although the only real problems they encountered with the cars themselves on getting complied for roadworthiness in Australia was anchor points for child restraints, which are compulsory here, so had to have them installed. Otherwise it was just all the taxes, customs and stamp duty that was the problem. The legacy is a JDM import with less than 40k on the clock with them being the only owner, and being so has a much greater market value over here if they were to resell it (from what I gather is due part to it's rareness as being badged as a legacy and being JDM, along with the massively lower k's that most 2nd hand Liberty's seem to have here.) (All cars get valued on landing for stamp duty purposes, for eg, the b4 was valued at around 15k NZD in NZ, but on hitting AUS soil was valued at around 26-27k AUSD by customs) The bureaucratic s*** they went through to get it into the country is not worthwile personally though, but if all costs are paid then by all means I think it would be worthwhile bringing a car over
  12. RA scoop on the GR= Happy face, <b>IMO</b> What do you guys think?
  13. Was going to suggest that too lol. Out of curiosity, why wouldn't you want to flip it?
  14. My old v3 was completely stock and had the stars on the badge, check my thread's pics, maybe it's a JDM standard to have the stars? Anyway here is a website you can buy the star badge from http://www.scoobyparts.com/acatalog/_STARS__GRILLE_EMBLEM_CERISE_CLASSIC_.html
  15. Might be silly but in my latest issue of fast fours there is a NZ origin 10 second integra that is apparently over here and legal to drive on the roads on a overseas vehicle permit? It's still registered in NZ, even has the NZ plates and everything! Anyone know anything about this?
  16. theres 100% a 12 month law car needs to be in your name for 12 months consistantly before you can start the process of taking the car to aussie True it does still exist and what you say is true but also you need to be in the country for the period, so eg you can't live in aussie and import it to you after 12 months.
  17. My parents just moved here and took their cars, one being a 2005 leggy b4, (which are worth close to $10g more over here), but now they kind of regret it, as stated the stamp duty is killer, also there is alot different laws here eg both the cars required to have child safety seat attachments bolted into the back seats. It all adds up. Though having a JDM, decent rex here IMO would be worth it all as the cars here are s***! Edit: Also just a random note, be prepared to not get your hands onto the car quickly after shipping it, only took a few weeks to land them here but it took close to 3 months after that getting them cleared to enter australia!
  18. http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/car-parts-accessories/subaru/brakes/auction-403633356.htm Q&A's: this guy still fails so hard
