200,000 Yen (1800 bucks), plus 800 dollars to import, 15K to legalize it...so about 18-20 grand.

why does it cost so much for it to be legal? Do you just pay that so you can have the car here or is that to buy parts to make it legal? And is 18-20 k worth it?

You have to go through MotoRex. At the end of the day the usually will not bring in the GTS-t's or GTS4 due to what has to be done to comply them. The cost is very prohibitive, but if you place an order with them they will bring it.

I am not sure but I would imagine nearing the $20 - $25,000 mark.

I bought the new Sport Compact Car mag at work tongiht. It has this article about motorrex. This guy was test driving a 1998 GTR with 30k on it. That car was 53k. I don't think I would pay close to that for any car. Not to mention I can't afford it. I wish I could afford the 90 GTS but I'm still in high school so maybe after college.

Well then they are dropping their prices. Last time a guy who visits our other forums bought his R32 GTR which is a 1991 in white he paid nearly $35,000 USD for it.

Thanks bro now I just need to save my lunch money until then. lol I don't think I'll be able to afford one anytime soon. Hey in the Fast and the Furious. They have a skyline GTR. Why would you sup up the Supra? Why not the skyline. Isn't it faster?

You havent done any research have you? Did you even go the the motorex site? Supra and GTR both have excellent engines that can handle some gnarly hp on the stock bottom end. Stock GTR's are not that special. Do a few little things and youre on track Basically look at cars you can actually afford, and dont bring in a GTS cos that would be bloody stupid. Yay 2 or 2.5L non turbos.... GTS-t on the other hand, thats fine. Not so quick stock, but you can get them moving with some mods.

lets just say that R33 in the movie is too valuable to mess up in the movie. its the same one that Rhys Millen used to break his personal best record in the Pikes Peak Hill Climbing contest by almost 11 seconds. this is stock class racing, and it bested the porsche 911 by 2.6 seconds and beat the WRX which was 500 lbs lighter by 10 seconds. the car was originally white but they painted it yellow for the movie.

Nevermind. I meant just get one that's not as fast and paint it. I know that supra was a real car. The guy that used to own it live in my state. But the Skyline is a faster car when it's done up, is it not. So just make a car that looks nice and use it for the movie. No one would ever figure it out.
