Pre 2000 kei import to NZ

Hello All,

(finally) getting around to attempting to import a Daihatsu Midget after not being able to purchase anything tidy enough here in NZ. I have located some tidy ones in Japan, but one of the guys in Japan has told me that I won’t be able to import any Midget’s into NZ at all - lost in translation a lot of it but I think he is referring to a) frontal impacts “Mini-sized cars (under 660cc) from Japan comply if they were manufactured on or after 1 July 2000” or b) emissions code. can anyone on here offer help/advice? I’m very much ignorant as to importing. cheers
