    Mark on windscreen meaning either crack or chip, might not pass out of province inspection.

    Drift lock button on ebrake indicating car was most likely drifted often.

    Get your exporter to check front end, I don't like r grade cars but sometimes it's very minor and worth it.

    Other than that I think it looks good

        Too risky IMHO, looks like its been beat up for a lot of its life. Also, looking at the vin, it came as an automatic but the auction sheet states its a 5spd manual...keep that in mind, its likely why the shifter console is bare.

        You can find something better...

            this car was rebuilt, lots of aftermarket. only 70k km i understand about the risks , but looking at the sheet with the damage report
            the paint and body is virtually flawless , rolled fenders, gtr front bumper, yes a 5 spd conversion, but im thinking with this much put into it and looking that clean (pride of ownership?) i might import based on the fact that if it craps out or isnt up to spec im sure theres enough usable parts to limit the liability.

                im looking for something that i dont feel bad about putting km on it or tracking it. and if i can steal this at auction it might be worth it.
                im not looking for another collectors car that i feel that i have to wrap i mylar. i feel paranoid driving it that any second some idiot is going to vear into me. and since im facility now anyways i dont care how build it is
                but i love hks! and this has all the parts i would have coveted anyways.
                and if its ****** then i need a block and swap the parts that are good still!

                it is a risk ! yes . and if life has tougt me anyhting is "no risk , no reward"

                i will ask for visual inspection though

                  If your using Derek as an Exporter.. Thats a bit out of his Area.. since he is in Yokohama.. and Nagoya is bit of a long train ride away

                  and that car goes up for auction in 10 hours.

                  Its going to go for a lot..
