I worked in Japan for a number of years and made very good friends/contacts. The RX7\'s im talking about are from grade 4 onwards from dealer forecourts in Japan. Not mass internet imports from high volume exporters such as tau/trade car/win-tech/japan-partner etc etc.

Majority have one/two owners from new, full service history\'s etc, and are very maticulously checked over by my contacts, test driven and inspected.

I\'ve been an importer for over a decade now, and have learnt valuable lessons on the way. Hence why the quality/prices are slightly higher than what you\'ve quoted.

Your correct mate, there is no model report available for the FD. Unless you paid for one to be made, then your talking major money and the report would only really be useful for that one car as if you brought another over and tried to use the same one, it would have to match the original FD report even down to the make of tyres.

Hence why there is no model report for the FD.

I would hate to see the condition of a 99 spec FD landed for Â£8K.

i contacted one of the model report companies for some info and another reason they said was they couldnt get the emissions down to the required levels?? dunno how true that would be.

a friend mentioned that the gov is planning an overhaul of the whole sva procedure, importing, etc. making it far harder to bring cars in. dont know how much trutch is in that, im sure if its all talk then you might know??

sorry for the slight hijack by the way lol.....

It\'s all about destroying free enterpise mate. Car manufacturers have complained about grey imports for many years, and the government has tightened it\'s claws.

I wouldnt be supprised if in 10 years it was impossible to register any grey import.

francovel3 · June 23, 2008, 07:07:44 PM

is the type rb special worth getting then

Kevin · June 23, 2008, 07:09:48 PM

What exactly are your plans for the car? (Power increases? Track use?) Or are you keeping it standard and just want a nice spec\'d RX7?

francovel3 · June 23, 2008, 07:12:20 PM

i want it standard and a clean example with decent power of about 280bhp and i no the rbs only comes with around 260hp but there is a type rbs for sale where i live so i was just asking is it worth getting

Johnerz · June 23, 2008, 07:12:41 PM

francovel,
maybe youd be better either waiting til jan 09 to get one on the 10 year rule or else buying a well cared for one thats already here? might save a bit of cash to get some mods done to get it to your taste...

apart from wee bit different body itll still need rebuilt around 60k lol :spank

Kevin · June 23, 2008, 07:13:26 PM

How much is it forsale for if you dont mind me asking mate? Mileage? Rebuild history?
