That is really cool? Not to hijack the thread, but how hard would it be to import an aussie RX3 to the US? How much do they cost over there, and how easy are they to find?

thanks

ease of finding not hard at all as they are very popular over here (although there are alot of fake rx3's as well!!) ie 808 done up as rx3

goto this site usually a couple come up for sale - http://ausrotary.dntinternet.com/forums/index.php

cost depends on whats done to it -

rundown one - anything upto $9,000 AUS
one in good condition with some mods $15,000 to $25,000 AUS
one set up for drag racing - $25,000 AUS +

as for cost of importing etc wouldnt have a clue sorry.


there are pics of my rx3 and what im doing to it in the link in my signiture next to ERATIC - (when photobucket comes back on line that is!!)

actually its not as hard or as expensive as you think.

from the fire wall forward they are the same electricaly etc

so its just the cost of the under dash wiring harness and usa dash bits as well as pedal box and steering mechanism.

once ya replace everything advertise the aussie/jap stuff ya dont need and recoupe the cost that way!!
