In efforts to help the drift scene expand, [JDM-IMPORTS.com](http://JDM-IMPORTS.com) is offering super low pricing for all Toronto Nissan members who wish to import a car from Japan for drift use. These cars will be at **cost** + small admin fee for our time.

In order to qualify for the special pricing you must also be a member of a registered drift organization in Canada. This is a limited time offer, and you will never see prices this low. Prices will vary depending on the condition of the vehicle, offer expires March 31st 2007.

Imported cars from Japan; must be 15 years or older. Some potential goodies that could be imported are…

- S13 with SR20DET (Silvia/180SX)
- RX7 (FC & FD)
- Toyota Soarer with 1JZ Twin Turbo
- Toyota Aristo with 2JZ Twin Turbo!
- Toyota AE86 Corolla/Levin
- Skyline GTS-T/GT-RInfo on other JDM cars…  
[http://www.jdm-imports.com/vehicles/JDM%20IMPORTS.html](http://www.jdm-imports.com/vehicles/JDM%20IMPORTS.html)

These cars are 100% street legal in Ontario and can be insured based on the appraisal value (19a policy).

The benefits of getting these cars are that they are J-Spec, usually come with expensive mods already done, and are virtually rust free.

If you’re interested, please drop me an email to [mitch@jdm-imports.com](mailto:mitch@jdm-imports.com)

Thanks!  
Mitch

:{ If you are referring to the S14/S15, no I didn’t forget them! LOL!

I wish we could import them, however we are restricted to cars 15 years or older… Max import year coming is 1992.

200SX? No matter… We’ll get you any car you need… But I still think the _BEST_ drift car is the Silvia S14/S15…

cefiro/laurel.

it’s surprising how popular they actually are, it really strikes me as odd how they haven’t taken off in north America as an import yet.

And the reason i said 2 of the best is because the longer chassis of the cefiro and laurel, coupled with the hybrid s-chassis/r32 chassis makes it very predictable, stiffer than a s13, and driver friendly.

No price limit… but I’m trying to limit this to cars that guys will be using for drift racing…

If I can get a bunch of orders all at once, I can ship it via container and save you guys more $$$.

Thanks!

I don’t suppose you can give us an idea on what cost is if we wanted to figure it out looking at your prices on your site?

This is a great offer, regardless! Makes me want to find $20,000 in couch money (I WANT THAT FD!). :F

Here’s a rough estimate of the special pricing… I’m assuming you wouldn’t buy a mint car for drifting… This price is to get the car to Toronto, buyer is responsible for all additional costs and any repairs. Normally we take care of everything for the customer, including repairs, hence the disparity in pricing.

Mazda FD3s’ Type R - $8000 - $12,000  
Mazda FC3s’ - $6000 - $10,000  
180/Silvia SR20’s - $6000 - $10,000  
Aristo 2JZ TT - $6000 - $10,000  
Skyline GTS/GTR - $6000 - $15,000  
Laurel/Cefiro - - $6000 - $8,000  
AE86 - $8000-$15,000 - They are expensive…
