Hi guys, been doing some reading in regards to import laws.
I know its impossible to privately import the vehicle.. obviously since I wont be owning the car in Japan for 12 months+
And i'm well aware that a grey import is not possible either since it doesn't fall under Australian design rules.
What my question is.. hypothetically.. if i were to purchase and import the vehicle.. and not register the car for street use.. is it possible to bring it in for race/track/rally use only? I dont intend to drive it or register it, just want it as a track use only project car.
Please feel free to add any comments/suggestions or anything I may be overlooking. I've worked out the costs of shipping it over here. The car is around 900,000 yen (~$9k AUD) + Freight, duty, GST, customs clearance etc.
