Hey fellow mudders,
I bought an import from AUSTOUSA about three years ago. I have all the correct paperwork which they gave me. I never registered the vehicle because I was fixing it up. Now some friends that I sold it to are trying to get it registered at the Florida DMV but the DMV is being...
I found this today and wish I'd seen it sooner. Good info for anyone considering importing, even if you use someone else.
Moving 2 FJ40s from Cartegena to Galveston, TX next month (hopefully). Once we get a coupe more export related docs and the booking done, I'll post about the journey...
How is it holding up?
It's 2018 now so I expect to start seeing 1993 models rolling into the states. For those of you who imported from Japan, Canada, or elsewhere - have you run into any big issues with repairs or finding parts?
Most of the threads from owners a couple years ago seemed to...
Full disclaimer: New to the forum and will be new to the Land Cruiser life if I can pull this off.
I apologize if this question has been asked before but I didn't find anything in my research so I'm hoping I can still get some information. It looks as if I might be moving to Guam next spring...
Ive had 3 deals fall apart, and no love (response) from the only importer I know of: @Akella
Anyone have any leads (new or used) or can help with a PN as I search the interwebs?
I'm a long time Yota guy. Lots of pickups and early 4Runners over the years. I'm nearing 50 and finally looking for a clean FJ40 for a restoration project. Must run and drive along the way - I am looking for something without major rust issues requiring repairs.
I am also embarking on a 10...
Hi all. I am vehicle shopping and heavily considering a 70 series.
Can anyone tell me what year the HDJ75 was first released?
If you have info about what markets it was offered to in different years that would be even better.
I am looking at importing to the USA, so just figuring out what my...
If not, any interest in one?
I see 1990-92 diesel cruisers for sale in the $15-20k range here in the US or in Canada and have always wondered what it would take to get one over here from Japan directly. My limited initial research indicates that these might be overpriced but I want to make sure...
Saw this today, imagine it is pretty rare. A shame it is in Australia.

Considering getting an import 60 series.

does the engine, body etc, match up at all?
cheers
I have decided to sell my 1988 Toyota Hilux surf 2.4L Diesel which was imported from Japan. (Right hand drive & Manual). 87,000 miles on her (140,000 KM) and all work has been performed by ACC Toyota in Atlanta. Manual transmission. Title in hand and vehicle is registered here in Atlanta...
Hello all
So, I've been lurking around reading on and off here for a couple years, and finally taken the plunge. I'm going to document the process so that others know more about what they are in for when doing the whole vehicle immigration thing. For starters, I will tell the story about how...
Hey, I posted this in the import forum, but you guys in this clubhouse might be able to help me more.
I'm from Calgary, and working in California until October. I would like to drive up a FJ60 when I leave. I have a couple questions regarding importing:
From what I understand, because the...
This topic comes up often, but a lot of cruisers make there way down from Canada instead of going up. Long story shot, I'm a Canadian working in California until October. Seeing so many rust-free cruisers down here has definitely accelerated my love for them, specifically FJ60s. I don't have one...
Hello everyone!
As of right now I own a lifted jdm Subaru Sti wagon. But I am trying to sell it and once I do I will be looking to import a fj80 from Japan (I live in Canada so we can import vehicles 15 years old). I am hoping to import a diesel, now I'm just wondering what kind of things I...
Hi,
I'm preparing a Pan American roadtrip in 2017 and I am considering to buy and prepare a HDJ80 here (Belgium, that is) and sell it in the US or Canada when the trip is over. This might save me the cargo trip coming back, and I've picked up on some fora that an HDJ80 might be worth some money...
I am from the US but now live down under, I was wondering what something that looks like this , un-restored straight out off the ranches is worth on the open market here in the US, most of them are Diesels that I see . I have shipped Caravans/travel trailers from the UK to Oz and the odd thing...
Anyone have a recommendation,based on personal experience, for RORO or Container Shipping from Columbia (Bogota or Cartejena) to U.S. East Coast? Thank you!
