Ok this might be a noob question but I'm going to ask it anyways.
Is it true it is illegal to import cars from Japan that have previously been released in the Australian car market? (in order to protect domestic industry)

Actually, I believe they have changed to law recently to prohibit imports of such cars that are available and sold domestically at this point in time.
Don't quote me there, I just heard it.... wanted to import a particular car (relatively new) that is now sold here..... for the JDM goodness, but was told it wasn't possible any more .

There are quite a few rules regarding the importing of cars. See here: http://www.infrastructure.gov.au/roads/ ... index.aspx
I'll try and find the list of cars eligible under the SEVS rules.
