personally importing a fairlady yourself
Has anyone personally imported a 300zx themselves, I have my eye on one at a dealership however the importers close to me seem to want a bit too much to bring it in, the car is 330,000 yen roughly 1800 quid and im looking at £4k in charges.

Who drives their car like a saint when you've just spent thousands of pounds on performance upgrades, the car should of been far more capable.

A Trip To Powerzed + more
Hi guys sorry I haven't updated in a while I have used the Facebook pages more and more and noticed I hadn't posted in a while so here's a quick update for you guys not on Facebook, the journey has been a long one, many hiccups along the way due to the nature of the beautiful 300zx, anyways the aem gauges are mounted in the glove box , ebc mounted and fitted , loom and ecu is in and shes In and running. Noel has been out and given his stamp of approval. I was supposed to pick up this Saturday but will be leaving it until next weekend as ive decided to place another order at z1! The viscous fan wasn't locking in completely so temps were gaining during spirited driving so that is getting replaced with a new fan clutch and blade from z1 , 2 new oem 02 sensors , dual selin intake with 2 new mafs go suit.

Importing something yourself.

Importing something yourself.
I'm currently looking at importing towards the end of the year il be looking to spend around £7-8k, £2300 for a zed landed in the uk is just not going to happen possibly a front clip or something so bad that importing would be pointless, in my opinion if your going to go through the hassle of importing you'd want a good clean grade 4 which you'l have to pay a decent wedge for!
