[M-type]

the vehicle has cleared and is now awaiting transport in the yard.
there are typically 1-2 transport trains for via rail a week to toronto.
my fees were $1100.00 for a 94 r33 4 door
the customs duty is going to be on $4711.20 so hst on that is $615.46
terra2 will confirm depart-arrival soon but with-in 2 weeks my car comes into concord and then flatbedded to here

NOTE: lowered cars will need front lip or front bumper skirt removed to not damage it
fess vary based on weight/size/distance

I just feel a fully documented and current(2010) blog is needed and even my steal of a deal at $4800.00 skyline adds up after some tune up service $1350.00 , 90,000 yen for shipping from japan($1120.00) plus export fees appox $800.00, import $2000.00, and terra 2 imports $1000.00 service fee, $1100.00 rail shipping, $250.00 for appraisal, $800-1500 for rims/tires, cert/emissions $180, hst on car $615.46, hundered and something for registeration and plates it really addes up
and yes i will just give me a heads up

just got official word its on the rails so 3 days of processing after drop off 7-10 on the rails plus more processing on the other end then a flat bed from concord to my house a 1hr and 45min drive probably two days to deliver
i highly recommend to anyone with the time and insurance and is having it bc registered/safetied... drive back its 4200kms even at 10 full tanks of gas at 50-60 a pop an oil change when you get home one night in a hotel some road food and 2 days drive
maybe $1000.00 high end but one hell of a way to welcome home your beauty.
verses
$1100.00- no control of timing days of minimal security and 13-17 days of waiting or more... im chewing my nails to bone worried about whos all looking through my car .... they leave cars unlocked in yards so there is no need to break the glass resulting in insurance claims
i wished my insurance could have worked something out. cuz paying more money for waiting longer in less secure areas just doesnt make sense
if it happened like that i would have been back from bc by now with my new car and driving my wife to the city next week instead of taking a cab to brampton from niagara region

[Daryl @ RightDrive]

Nice price! My GT-R is going via truck, cost is about $1400-$1500, nice and cozy inside this truck:

[quadracer111]

They charged you 1.1k for sea rail?!

A r32 gts-t was quoted at $650.

Did you get this quote yourself, or did terra?

most likely was including delivery on a flat bed... when i had mine shiped from edmonton to the kootenays it cost about 900... 650 for the rail from edmonton to vancouver and then 250 for the flatbed from vancouver to the koots

price included bumper skirt removal, towing from inspection lot to "livingston transport" formerly searail and transport from concord to fonthill ontario 140km trip
the douche who removed the skirt scratched the car with the skirt either terra 2 or mitchell towing and soaked the drive side floor .

Loving it! R33 FTW! First thing you're gonna wanna do is flush the rad if it hasn't been done. My coolant came out like chocolate milk and my car only has 60,000km. I bet they never changed it haha

[starboy869]

if your coolant is like chocolate milk then you have other issues. Coolant will not get dirty like that with 60,000km on the od. I bet your headgasket is done.

[MattRose]

Trust me, head gasket is fine. I've got full compression across all cylinders. I just flushed the coolant after I picked it up and its still perfect.

prior to export;
castrol tranny fluid flush
castrol engine oil change 0w-40 fs
timing&acesry belts changed
coolant flush
ss brake lines (needs installing with pads, brake fluid flush @ same time)
interior shampoo
exterior wash and wax
(replaced front bumper skirt)
