Eligible for import to AustraliaCompliance Available
The Nissan Stagea PNM35 is approved for import to Australia under the SEVS Performance Criterion. Each example carries a automatic gearbox and four-wheel drive. We source through approved Japanese auctions, arrange inspection where possible, bid with your approval, and manage import and compliance support end to end.
This Nissan Stagea PNM35 is approved for import to Australia under 4 SEVS approvals including SEV-000512, SEV-000509, SEV-000511, plus 1 more on the Rover register, all granted on the Performance Criterion, supported by Model Report Entry MRE-000565 issued by SHUI MIR PTY LTD. Approvals cover builds from Oct 2001 to June 2007.
Why qualified — Performance Criterion. Approvals granted under the SEVS Performance Criterion apply to vehicles that demonstrate a substantially superior performance specification — for example, power-to-weight, acceleration, or another measurable performance metric — compared with vehicles supplied to the Australian market in volume. Eligibility is build-specific: the exact build years, variants and model codes named on the approval are the binding reference.
How Carbarn runs this import. We source 10/2001 to 6/2007 examples through approved Japanese auction houses, verify build and condition sheets before bidding, and handle every downstream step on your behalf — international freight, Australian customs entry, biosecurity inspection, and the full SEVS compliance program at our Sydney workshop. Final delivery includes paperwork for state registration.
