New to the forum and imports, just wondering a few things.
#1 RHD or LHD, would it be worth it to import a RHD?
#2 How hard is it to find parts?
#3 What to look for when inspecting? ie normal wear and tear compared to abuse.
#4 Price ranges for excellent and good condition.
#5 Trusted shops in the Okanogan or lower mainland.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
 
Since you are in BC you get a BG GTR if you have the cash.

#1 If you are ok with shifting with your left hand get a RHD model.
#2 Depends on what you are looking for. Service parts are available for most of the vehicle. Unique stuff like the turbo gaskets can take some time. We normally stock the turbo gaskets.
#3 Check the transmission fluid in the diff and the main case. If there is metal plan on a rebuild. Check the crankshaft pulley/crank nose to make sure it is ok in earlier GTXs. That would be the big 2 I can think of. If you are getting a BF chassis make sure all of the wheel bearings are ok. If they are not walk away from it. It can be a pain in the butt to find a knuckle sometimes.
#4 I have seen GTRs landed in BC for around $8000
#5 I do not know of any shops up north, just in the Vancouver area.
