Imports

[TacoDane]

New JDM on the way to town! Currently on the way back from Houston with the Jimny I bought in February. This thing is awesome.
The whole process has been interesting. With a few hiccups along the way. But over all the importer I used was super freindly and helpful. Even took a vehicle the auction house screwed up paperwork on. Instead of me having to deal with a 2wd i couldnt use.
The only thing that couldve made this better was having the money for 2dr Yota. But most here know that costs a lot more.

I've wanted a jimny for a long time. I just don't fit in them.

Is it turbo? Are you driving it back or towing it?

When you get it in hand and get the registration headaches worked out could I sit in it some time? See if I can make it work? If you need help with translation of anything I have a japanese friend that is a mechanic. I can certainly ask him.

Yes Turbo. Drove it back. Didn't have a tow rig and was getting rediculous transport quotes. More to move Houston to Denver than Japan to Houson.

Got some new tyres today. The ones that came on it were from early 2006. Apparently that's unsafe or something .
Had to custom order due to size and they're still 2" wider than stock. I've noticed people don't like skinny tires so they're only avaliable in winter selection anymore. Tire shop ordered the wrong ones though. I asked for the APTs wound up with ATs. Oh well, fawq it I'll run em.
