Matt H Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 It's not the weather for clean cars. They get very dirty this time of year and people are less inclined to go out in the cold to clean them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samurai 20V Posted December 2, 2010 Author Share Posted December 2, 2010 So far I have looked at a few, they have all had issues, paintwork, poor condition.. I almost bought one that seemed to be mint, thankfully I asked for pictures of the undercarridge, car had bad corrosion from the snow... Another one was a bit expensive but worth the money, it had blown all the main engine fuses b4 I could test drive it.. I am looking at spending around. 1.2mill yen, 1996 is my limit for year model...

Samurai 20V Posted December 2, 2010 Author Share Posted December 2, 2010 tbh, there must be loads over in Japan. Home of the supra and the 2002 model. They becoming scarce, a search for RZ and RZ-S 6MT, pre 1996 on Carsensor yields 30 cars... There some clean ones at hefty prices... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snooze Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 That's about £9k ? Surely for that money you can get a less-than-perfect one and get it tidied up, no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Theres tons of importers, and one her on the forum. Drop Jurgen a PM, he'll sort you out with a good one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is possible, was trying to minimize the amt of tidying up to do... The other issue is the damn MOT in Japan, costs 250000yen, trying to find a car with one that is valid for the time I am here is difficult... Can anybody re-motivate me to go out and search for that 2JZ???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're only in Japan for a short period and struggling to find something, screw it and wait till you're home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
