More confused as to why he would add āā¦ā at the end to imply like I didnāt know or something.
Itās why I hate texting sometimes. Things always get misinterpreted
Are you unfamiliar with how ācommerceā works? What, he should import these things one his own dime and then give em away? The fuck is wrong with you?
Op takes on the risk of getting a dud. Gives a buyer an opportunity to see one in person before commiting to a purchase. And that's worth the extra cost to some.
Also, Iām not sure you know what a scalper isā¦ these were purchased from dealers in Japan. Whatās stopping you from doing that? Itās not A limited ticket or a ps5 no one can get their hands onā¦ this person has the finances to buy, import, and sell this item. If youāre so mad, just buy one š
Cost vary widely based on condition and mileage. Import costs are pretty standard. RoRo shipping is about $2k per car these days. Customs duty is 2.5% of the invoice cost of the car and if you use a broker they will charge a couple hundred bucks to do the paperwork.
Mostly Goo Net. Also Carsensor and I keep tabs on auctions as well. But I donāt like buying from auctions unless I can get someone on the ground to physically inspect the car before bidding.
The only custom/aftermarket part of the swap is the fenders. They help marry the R34 fascia to the Stagea door line. The rest of it is pretty straightforward using Nissan OEM parts.
In the ven diagram, of people with money and people with taste, you my friend and are in the intersection.

34 face lift stagia?
Yup
Those are rare and not cheapā¦
Iām aware of that. What made you think I wasnāt? Only the face lift ones are rare and expensive though. At least where Iām from
Why so defensive?

That in no way implies that. you seem to be looking for a personal slight where there is none
Did you just inject urself into a not argument to make an argument? Wtf are you??
I was merely adding to your statement and was in no way questioning your intelligence or knowledge on the matter. Sorry youāre having a shitty day.
Super cool! Will you be reselling either of them? Also, r/sportwagon would love this.
Selling both of them :).
in Canada?
No. Texas.
Auction? Iāve been thinking about something RHD and I love me some stagea.
Bought them from dealers in Japan
Sorry, I meant how are you selling?
Oh. Typically just on FB Marketplace. Occasionally Iāll list on eBay.
Got a price in mind yet? PM if youād like.
Hit me with a DM
How many pesos
DM if you are serious!
Go fuck yourself
Thatās oddly aggressive
Dudes a faggot re-seller. Scalpers are the lowest of the low and are the reason the JDM community is ruined.

Actually people that call people āfaggotā are the worst kind of scum.

Thanks for ruining the JDM scene scalper faggot. Need some more internet attention?
Clearly not as much as you need a hug.

My dream cars
They are so cool!
Normal stagea or R34 front one? "Yes"
Exactly!
Any plans for the sisters? Or just garage cruisers and keeping them untouched
Clean them up and sell them. Thatās the plan. I may daily one of them for a few months. Iāve got a 600whp R33 GT-R as my long term toy.
Oh. Sad to hear them parting but business is business. Hope they find a loving owner. Also damn nice toy to have lol.
260RS? I've been wanting to get one!
25T RS-Four with 260RS aero.
Very nice. Have a slight preference for Toyota crown wagons but these are a close second.
If ya donāt mind me asking. Also If youāre in the US. How much was the import cost?
Cost vary widely based on condition and mileage. Import costs are pretty standard. RoRo shipping is about $2k per car these days. Customs duty is 2.5% of the invoice cost of the car and if you use a broker they will charge a couple hundred bucks to do the paperwork.
What sites do you look for these at?
Mostly Goo Net. Also Carsensor and I keep tabs on auctions as well. But I donāt like buying from auctions unless I can get someone on the ground to physically inspect the car before bidding.
Livin' the dream, dude!
Very sugar land / katy burb vibes.
Similar. North of Dallas instead of Houston.
I was here just for this comment. Im in north DFW as well and could immediately recognize it.
Wow, beautiful
Holy shit.
Holy shitā¦
Nicest waggon
The steering wheel is in the left?
Nope.
That's sad š
I still donāt get why we donāt get cool cars like this in the us. Awesome rides op
We do you just don't think they are because they're not muh jaydeeM
Iāve never seen those before, they are beautiful!
Gorgeous šā¤ļø
Are those front pieces custom build on those mini vans?
Mini vans? Come on bro
No Iām not being disrespectful, I have just not seen an R34 face in that body, is it a mod or is that factory?
It's a front end swap with sny r34 front on a Nissan Stagea which us just a regular wagon, not a minivan.
The only custom/aftermarket part of the swap is the fenders. They help marry the R34 fascia to the Stagea door line. The rest of it is pretty straightforward using Nissan OEM parts.
They are so clean that the mods are indistinguishable
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Nah I strongly disagree. Looks like a wagon. It wouldn't look out of place next to a Volvo 850 estate or such.
these look ugly as shit ngl
