Yo I found a company who would ship a 20ft container that has 15k lbs or less in it from UK to Japan for 4200V$ So you can import some parts or anything too

Well, golf mk3 always looks good with a vento front end swap, your choice on mods but look at them and you will love the aggressive look.

Dude thats seriously nice. FTO!! 4G63 it, ill pm you car ive managed to find

Added 20 minutes later:

So quick update - Moving to Japan, Osaka to be specific. Gotta send off a little beauty to my friend FastCars so he can store it until im there.
The car itself is in decent shape, but only problem is that its still got the stock CA18DE in it and the headlights are broken and dont move at all while the previous owner had some not so nice taste in wheels put on and lowered it about an inch and half on the front while half an inch on the back all while having a massive cannon on the back, at least interior is surprisingly clean.
Pics of 240:

Ill keep the V6 2.0 MIVEC engine in the car, I like it sounds good and don't got that much money to do it anyway. If I wanted to put a CT9A in it id have to make it awd and that to much work for a project I'm not THAT motivated in.

Well logbook says 240 but it was imported, and the V6 does sound nice but imagine an AWD FTO! that would be cool

The rear has a massive cannon, stock rear bumper, stock lights and a type x wing. The cannon can be generic but the whole car has the s13 trim

So since i sent the 240 to japan which i hope has arrived safe and sound, i got round to spraying the astra since the golf is staying in the UK for a while.
The car also got some new shoes - Hydrogenex sold me his Tom's Racing Wheels 16'' in red for V$700 which was worth it btw.
The 240 has also been bought a TYPE X conversion kit which i will put on alongside new headlights which work :)

The astra was painted in arden blue and was also lowered on H&R Street suspension with Bilstein rear springs set at 6'' and front AP Springs set at 6'' also.

So im boarding my flight soon, Japan here we come! FastCars expect me haha

So im in Japan, Osaka. The 240 is here as well so work can commence. My plans are twin turbo the CA motor and if it blows find a cheap RB and swap that in but for now here she is with the TYPE X conversion. The astra is on its way and also tickets for the plane leave me with V$1105 since they cost quite a lot...

Just sayin... you need to keep up with your finances... your somewhere around 5500V$ now.. or 6500, just look at the money you spent after the last price check thing. Cuz u were at 12k then had to get shipping for the cars and parts for s13..

You're better off ITB'ing a F20 or a K20 than swapping to a 4A-GE, I think your car will be SLOWER if you 4A-G swap it.

Well, You could get it fast but then you'd have to spend like 3 grand in like Camshafts, Pistons, Harder valve springs bla bla bla etc etc.

A 4AGE tbh sounds like a bad I idea you should go for a LS3 or RB26 or SR20 or a 350z-370z engine
