Australia & New Zealand JDM Imports Made Easy
Brave Auto International sources JDM cars from Japanese auctions and ships to Australia & New Zealand.
You’ll deal directly with Mark for compliant vehicle selection (RAWS/NZTA guidance) plus pre-export inspection/testing.
Decades of Experience with New Zealand JDM Imports
New Zealand has been importing Japanese vehicles since the early 1980s — and Mark has been immersed in the NZ market and compliance landscape for decades. His deep knowledge of the NZ market — especially around compliance, mechanical condition, and model desirability — means Kiwi buyers benefit from a partner who is not only a Kiwi himself, but truly understands what works back home.
Whether you’re after a reliable daily, a 4×4, or a turbocharged JDM classic, Brave Auto International ensures quality vehicles that meet both performance expectations and compliance requirements.
Specialist Knowledge for Australian Customers
Mark has extensive experience with the Australian import system, including the RAWS (Registered Automotive Workshop Scheme). He previously owned a RAWS-approved (Registered Automotive Workshop) import compliance workshop in Perth, Australia and was Australian Government-licensed to inspect vehicles and sign off once they met compliance requirements.
This gives Australian buyers a major advantage. Many of our customers have come to us after dealing with other agents whose vehicles failed compliance — often due to accident damage or hidden issues — resulting in costly re-export or even destruction.
At Brave Auto International, we understand the RAWS system and the specific requirements for import compliance in Australia.
