In half - yes.
Whole - yes and no. Not to register for road as there's an aus delivered version, but i think you can for race purposes. Not sure what's involved in importing cars for non-complianc purposes, yet i know you can. I'll see what i can find out if you want?

for race purposes you need to hold a level 3 cams licence and prove the the car will be used for race only, i think you can import almost what ever you want under this rule, or just live in japan for 1 year and get it was a privite import
dan, you should put the advan red tri spokes on yours

OK, i've had a chat and have found out ythat you can bring in a car without cutting it in half AND without needing a CAMS Licence/Aus race history etc
What you have to do is once you've bought the car: - remove the driveline - remove the front and rear subframes - ship them in separate containers that aren't on the same ship That's how you get around it. it'd cost extra to do all that of course but it's still a better option.

and to get it complied 1st, and into the sevs approved list, you need to do crash tests on the so the garage that inports it can warrent the safety of it on the australian roads. so you'd have to buy 2, 1 to crash, and 1 to own!!!
i'd go with the cut or pull apart options... alot cheaper!!! ryan |

VINs and engine numbers can be date checked . Best to chat with an importer as the laws change too frequently for a forum thread to be accurate.
