If you live overseas for 12 months and can prove you owned and drove the car during that time you are free to bring it back into the country with you
3,
If it's a car that the manufacturer never had full import licence you are free to import it, not that easy as the car must be complied to be road legal which costs $$
For example you can import Ferrari 360s from 1999-2004 including CS but once landed in aus it must be complied to be able to be road registered and that costs anywhere from $17k to $30k not sure what's current.
So no chance for imported 86s

yeah, sounds about right, no chance for standard 86's. If toyota japan bring out a trd 86 with turbo/SC and it is not a production model sold in australia then yes it can be imported, but getting it complied/import costs is the problem. $$$
Was going to import a st162 GT4 celica as they were never sold in australia. Decided not to. Big mistake, i regretted for years. That changed after I placed my order for the 86.
