Outer Limits 4x4 Board

There is becoming a large market for importing vehicles from Japan to Canada. I'm not sure the regulations for the US but here in Canada, we can import vehicles 15 years old or older. That's to get around the safety issues (seatbelts, etc). So up to 1991 vehicles to the exact manufacture date. I ...

Thanks everyone for your files. I'm still considering importing one from Japan. But I've gotten quite a few comments about the truck not being at all suitable for North American highways. I don't expect sports car performance, but I do expect to be able to easily and safely get up to highway speeds ...

Kind of like before her and I got married right?

I've been hooked for quite a while already. I just have to come up with the $12000 CDN and wait 4-6 weeks to import a truck from Japan. Oh, and I have to convince the "boss" that this is a necessary expenditure. I don't think she'll be too keen.

Thanks. I appreciate your help.
You could capture with a microphone and laptop, or a PDA. Both my Palm and Pocket PC can capture wav sound clips.

Great...thanks. Anyone else? This shouldn't be too difficult since you have Patrols all over the place where you're at. We have none here. No Nissan diesels at all.

I don't think so. It is much more difficult to import vehicles to the US. It is also cheaper to import directly into Canada. The problem with importing from countries other than Japan is that there is no network set up to do it. So it would be very difficult to get all the details worked out. Sound ...

I am in Canada. It is legal to import JDM vehicles that are at least 15 years old. I cannot import from other countries.

RHD does not bother me. In fact it has a certain amount of "coolness factor".

I'd still love to have a sound bite.

I'm planning on buying a Patrol/Safari. The problem is that they are not, nor have they ever been sold here in North America. I will of course be importing one from Japan. I'm curious how they sound. Diesels are few and far between here. They only diesels are trucks, buses, construction equipment ...

Can someone post a sound file (wav or mp3) of a TD42 starting, idling and revving?

Thanks
