I purchased, imported & recently registered my 91 manual (grade 4B with 100k kms) under the new laws (NSW). Happy to help answer any questions you may have. Imported many cars over the years too. My NSX hunt began in late 2017 actually. Can say that you'll need to bump your budget a bit though...

I'm pretty up to speed with importing these days. Can say with relative certainty, you're best to sell your LHD as its value will be low in AU as mentioned, along with the fact most states wouldnt allow it on the road without conversion due to its relative youth (compared to LHD muscle cars...

No, it's passed legislation & royal assent but will not officially take affect until Dec 10, 2019 after the 1yr transition ends. Any NSX imported locally, was via another avenue; private or as race car.

If I'm lucky, may be able to ship it over this year, but can't register it until 2019. It's a 91, confirmed it's original color/paint, except the fenders (Marga Hills) & bodykit of course. I'm not sure if the roof was sprayed, but don't believe it has been. Saw quite a few red top NSX's go up...

Here's a pic of my NSX. Washed & given a bit of a test drive before being covered & stored away indoors.

Probably imported in the earliest days before rules got tightened. Or private import. You'll be able to get Type R for sure eventually too, I actually looked at them, but they're as competitive to buy as a NUR R34 GTR. Not cheap (be lucky to get change from $200k) but I guess cheaper than the...

Well done, looks great! Manual or auto? Do you mind sharing (via private chat if you prefer) how you got it here? I'm assuming it was somehow imported & you're waiting for the 25yr pathway to rego it. Or was it imported via another pathway for now (eg race/rally import)? If I could get mine...

Interested to know where you sourced yours if you don't mind as no black manuals came up on auction. There one at dealer, which I checked but steered clear of & the other is LHD.

I was hunting for black actually, but am more than happy with cliche red. Already have a few black cars to maintain so thought I'd change it up. I don't mind if you're willing to disclose too? Paid 4.9M yen ($56k aud). Auction grade 4B (great original paint), zero accident history, great...

What a Friday & way to end the week. I just bought an NSX. It may not be in my garage for a long time, but done nonetheless. Grade 4B, no accident history with 107,000 legitimate kms. Long story short, with upcoming likely changes to the Australian import laws, the NSX will eventually be able...

I have trouble believing it sold so fast. I could never have caught it if it did. I've been checking carsales etc twice a day & missed this popping up. Possibly seller backed out or buyer already had it lined up. Damn shame but mark my words, I will get one. Whether it takes a day or years...

Guess it's not settled yet, but probably the most "basic" way to guess, is if the AUDM cars fall out of the VTEC range when shifting from 1st to 2nd (at redline).

Thanks noisuf, good to know I'm not the only one that does that. NSX9, yes that was me. Not put off at all by an import, especially due to the guaranteed better ratios. I never saw a clear answer as to whether AU 5spd NSX's had the same ratios as USDM or JDM?

I'm Sydney based. Happy to travel for the right car, so anyone considering selling please feel free to reach out. Thanks for the well wishes. I look forward to the day I post on here with good news of a purchase. I did notice the NSX crowd is somewhat underground in Australia? Surprised no one...

Looking for a manual only. I consider $100k+ overpriced for an auto to be honest & ~$150k overpriced for an import NSX (one on gumtree now). Prices are certainly on the rise & I'm thankfully in a position to move fast (unless I'm traveling of course), but I'm a fairly calm/level headed type of...
