The Raven Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 Can someone tell me the ins and outs of this. Looks like my car will end up aboard at some point. Do things have to be changed on a UK spec car? To meet Eu rules? I would like to have some facts so i dont sound like total plum when talking about it to people interested in buying the car Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobSheffield Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 Thanks pal:D Out of wondering what do you have to do to it? I would imagine change it to Euro spec so it dips the other way... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MKIV-Supra Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 Many People say here in Germany that you must change the Frontlights and sometimes u must change or modifyie the backlights too. And the car must be in Stock Form. Please forgive me for my bad english! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas_germany Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 (edited) You got to get german E-signed headlights, a rear foglight, a 3-rd brakelight in the middle (most supras got it) and you got to get a emmsion-test and the TÜV (something like MOT) done. @ MKIV-Supra: wo kommst du her?

Kaamos Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Toyota France told me this morning you also have to check about the seatbelts beeing euro-labelled as well.... easy to check anyway, there must be a label stitched to the belt itself, just look for the E-logo does yours have it, Raven ?

The Raven Posted January 20, 2009 Author Share Posted January 20, 2009 Been out and checked, has a label with E4 printed on it? i guess thats it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKIV-Supra Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 Im not sure but in german you must have an E3 i think but im not sure. You can try to google. @Thomas: Ich lese nur mit da ich noch keine Supra habe aber mich schon ganze Zeit umgucke nach den Preisen usw.. Bin noch rechtjung. Komme aus Bayern. Lese auch im deutschen Supra Forum mit. Aber wie gesagt bin noch relativ jung und bis ich iene SUpra habe kanns noch nen weilchen dauern.

ksbkrew Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 the most important things are: -VIN with 17 number -stock form -all lights, glass, belts with the E label If you've got all that it's no problem to import a supra to france ( I Did it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKIV-Supra Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 Yeah i read in the Supra Forum´s of an Mini KAT or so. But i think you must hav an Mini Kat since the Facelift model. Because from 93-96 you dont need the Mini Kat but when its Facelift or VVT-i then u need one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
