Lately buying a skyline isnt so appealing due some shadyness going on at the moment, not to mention a lot fo the cars available are right offs fixed and/or possible right offs. Since you are not there in person you cant tell for sure.

You'll Have to Check local laws for importing.Most of the members here are from canada.Good luck with the Search.

England doesnt have any I believe, thats why there is R34's over there. From what I remeber the M signifies the bodykit they put on, but I forgot what it means right now.

yea there are lots of skylines and other toys we cant get here like the all the Evos and the old wrx.

[AllGoNoShow]

We can get Skylines, just not the new ones

$28K for a R32 GTR ? 15 yr old ? you must saw the wrong ad ... they are going for $4k to $5k in Japan .. with shipping .. taxes .. and all kind of shit .. and let those importers make some good money .. then probaby around $10K to $12K .. :)

[AllGoNoShow]

Actually 4-5k is more along the liens of a beat up GTS-t or GTS-4 never mind a GT-R, if u got a GT-R for 4-5 then ur gunna have to spend 20k to get it working back to normal

[$tillqls]

28 grand is how much some skylines in canada are going for due to the demand. you can find gtss for 10-18 grand but the majority of gtrs are going for more than 20 grand.

[AllGoNoShow]

yuo lookin in the wrong spots then, thers lots of ways to bring a gt-r in on good ocndition in for under 20k, just takes longer and is a tad bit more risky

[rogue]

you cant get any good skylines in canada yet so wait for the goodens and as for the evo yea there are special ways to get around the rules like if you own a shop i think you can put a certain amount of kms a year on it but cant use it as a daily driver and if you are visiting from another country you can bring it with you but you can only have it here for a certain amount of time. I am not sure but this is what i have heard.

[AllGoNoShow]

u can rbing it in for promotional, but u wont get inrusnace or anything on it and it has to leave in 2 years or 6 months or somethign anyways, no p[oint in trying to get around it, they will jst impound the thing and destroy it

[abc1]

i don't really remember but i read the the m has more stuff that comes with the car, lsd is something I can remember. then again, I can be wrong.

[AllGoNoShow]

yah I used to remeber it all then I got banned on the other forums so I cant find it anymore

There are decent shape GTS-ts that are even cheaper than that.

The Type M comes with an LSD, beefier suspension, and bigger brakes.

With skylines.. what parts are interchangable? I mean, I think 240 parts will fit silvias but I dont know for sure, can someone clarify this? Is there something like this for skylines, or do all parts have to be imported.

[DeathBy240]

Nothing really. We have no cars here with the RB series engine and nothing that shares the same chassis. Erickson Nissan in Edmonton can get all the parts from Japan though, with a waiting period.

Silvia's and 180SX's make great cars to import because they have so much parts availability in Canada with the 240SX and Pulsar.
