ST202 VS ST205 Options

[AoDoW]

hey guys,

ive got 2 options and having a little trouble making up my mind,

ive currently got a st202, lots of work to be done, but i was thinking of importing an st205 from japan.

either way im looking at a lot of money but in terms of performance, and reliability which is the better choice.

if i kieep the st202 ill be putting a 3sgte in to it and almost a full rebuild.

any ideas would be greatly appreciated

Canada allows almost anything that is at least 15 years old so at current I could import anything 1995 or older and soon as 2011 hits 1996 and 2012 1997 ect ect, there will be some awesome cars available to be imported to Canada over the next few years. This does not apply in Ontario, they have their own "custom" rules.

Dammit... my missus and I were looking to move over there in the next few years, I was kinda counting on the 15 year thing. Dammit, Ontario!

move to NZ, buy a GT4, live here for more than, I think its 6months? then move back to aussie, if you really want to

thats the way a member here did it.

I didn't think Australia got the ST202?

It's 12 months, and you need to provide all kinds of ridiculous proof of ownership (apparently), even then they can decide to not approve your import application and as far as I know the authorities don't need to give you a good reason. Also we didn't get the ST202 however there are quite a number floating around, mostly in the northeast. They usually sell for more than they are worth ($14-18k)because of their scarcity, however nowhere near as overpriced as the ST205's that become available from time to time ($22-30K).
