Importing a GA Aircraft from Australia to New Zealand

Hi there,

My first post here soo I hope I'm posting this in the right section and all (please correct me if im wrong).

I'm a 19 year old student pilot at Ardmore, Auckland, New Zealand and I'm about 5 hours away from my PPL checkride. I am looking to get my CPL straight after and so I've decided to buy an aircraft.

I'm currently looking at a 1979 PA-38-112 Tomahawk as a cheap to run hour builder which is the aircraft that I've trained in. But the only issue is that the only available one I could find is located in Australia.

I was hoping someone here would have experience or know someone who has imported an Aircraft from Australia and registered it in New Zealand.
Was looking to get an idea about the whole procedure and the ballpark cost of doing so.

Cheers!
