and Lozza I am prepared to wait 1-2 weeks or whatever it takes for delivery, im in no hurry for the part. Its just the payment I was worried about and wanted to know it had gone in and my ecu would be sent. $900 might not be alot to some of you, but to me it is, and I wanted to be sure I wasnt just handing it over to some crook. (which is obviously not the case before half you wanks go saying im calling him a crook now). peace

as ive said before my main gripe was told that I would receive a receipt as soon as its in, and 10 hours later I still hadnt... thats what I was worried about. I have been ripped off once before by putting my trust in someone hoping in good faith they would come through, but didnt, and i was worried I might have been done again. I knew nothing of this guy and didnt bother with "research" as I just put my trust in him. To the people saying hes saving me $$$$, he offered me the part for $900 when I can get it for $1000 new, wont say where from though as it could hurt supra mans business. so I wasnt saving a shitload, just trying someone new. by the way, posting private emails on a forum is not cool in any way, especially when your supposed to be 'professional'. mase, ur a champ, its good to see some people on here arent all as clueless as rb25detwinered.

To the guys that said wait awhile, I have no complaint against, as I said fair enough ill wait it out a day or two. To the others that didnt even bother reading my post properly, ill say it again, it wasnt a TRANSFER, it was a DIRECT DEPOSIT at his branch directly into his personal account, there is no waiting 12-24hr for the money to go in. I would of had no problem waiting 1-2 days for acknowledgment that the money had gone in if need be, but "I will also email you a receipt as soon as payment is received" and "GIVE ME TIME TO CHECK THE BALANCE and actually Type up your reciept!!" are two very different things. DONT LIE TO YOUR CUSTOMERS and YOU'LL HAVE NO WORRIES! if you said it may take you 1-2 days to check the deposit I would of been happy to wait. Its easy for you to sit there when your just taking someone elses money, but your not the one giving money to someone else are you You guys know I have no problems with what half of you said, but the ones that saying "stop ya complaning/whinging/trying to put his business down" etc is bullshit, I have a right to be concerned about my money and I was trying to find out what was going on as I have never purchased something online before. To Nexus9, MJ, and the others that replied saying I need to wait longer, thanks for your input and not being asses about it, my apologizes to you if you think I was having a go at you, cause I wasnt. Gee arent you a smart one, you think I dont realise that I would have to wait? you miss my point. Ive said 3 times already about the receipt thing, so if it hasnt sunk into your little head yet chances are its not going to.

why dont you try reading the posts before you reply? "also no contact number on the site"~!~

Who said I was giving the guy a hard time or complaning? and I dont need 200 people replying saying to wait a few days, ive read it once, if you have nothing else to add, then dont post here, that simple. As I said before, whenever I deposit money in the same way into my account its available then and there, thats why Im asking. Im not knocking the business or saying hes not legit, im asking questions as ive never bought online before and cant get any reply from him. A reply email at least would be nice, it was taking <1min yesterday with emails, now he has my money I havnt received an email from him all day when I was supposed to get an email quote: "I will also email you a receipt as soon as payment is received"

I went into the bank itself and put it straight into the account, I dont know about other banks but when I do it to my own account the money is available as soon as its deposited. It wasnt an online transaction or anything. But ill take your advice and wait it out for a few days if need be.

I ordered a apexi powerfc from this guy who apparently runs www.JapaneseImportParts.com He told me the he would email me a receipt as soon as the money was deposited into his account, its been there all day since this morning and ive heard nothing of him, and no replies to any emails, also no contact number on the site. I was a bit skeptical about ordering something online and now I know why, this is dodge. Have I been ripped or is this guy just lazy?

if your tuner doesnt know how to up the boost limit, how much do you expect them to be able to tune on it anyway?

about $3000 would be my MAX budget to spend on them, so these sound like a good option, whats the url for rpm? also im assuming these are a direct bolt on, with internal wastegates yeah?

Im not real up with all the turbos available these days, but are there any cheaper garett replacements (roller bearing) that are cheaper then HKS items, maybe some sort of T04? I know 2530/40's etc are popular replacements, but i dont want to be spending that sort of money as my cars primary goal is a daily driver, any 1/4mile time it runs is just a bonus, but I dont want to be restricted by ceramic turbines also I would prefer to keep the twin turbo setup, as thats one of the reasons I bought the GTR Cheers - Brett

Is there anything that can be tuned with any amount of performance to be gained on a factory R33 GTR ecu? Or am I better off waiting till I get a powerfc Ive also read somewhere that alot of people with 33 gtr's exchange the ecu for a 32 gtr, as they are apparently more tunable then the 33, yet it didnt say anything about what can be changed, or what gains to expect. I currently just have a 3" exhaust from the factory front pipes, and aftermarket pods (soon to have a cold air setup, just temp at the moment). Im just waiting till after christmas to order a powerfc, but want to get it on the dyno now just to make sure everything is running ok and not leaning out/running rich. Thanks in advance

Can anyone tell me if gtr's have twin blowoff valves or a single one? and if it is twins is it easy to convert to just a single? ive heard of it being done before but dont know whats involved in it. Also which ones would you recommend, I dont know alot about the different types, but would rather them be quiet when driving normally, and really only make some noise under boost. I know about adjustable ones but my last adjustable made basically the same noise no matter what, or should I just go with a plumb-back setup? Also Ive heard the HKS bovs leak alot, is this true? thanks in advance!

Question: has anyone here done this themselves? Is there an easy way to get the bottom afm facing upwards off? I can feel the screws on the back, but theres no way theres any tools going in there, the airbox and intercooler plumbing takes up basically all the space, I can barely touch em with my fingers, it seems there no chance of getting any tools in there... any advice would be greatly appreciated, as I dont feel like putting it all back together after this time

Expect to pay $300 each if you buy them locally, or you can order them from places like greenline or nengun in japan for $150 ea. thats my plan when the time comes to buy them anyway, hope that helps! greenlines site: http://www.greenline.jp

good to know theres still honest men around! haha I had a simple $100 turbosmart i think? bleed valve on my previous car and it did the job, I think i was one of the lucky ones though as mine used to hit about 14psi and bleed back a little bit rather then spike. I think if your planning on running more boost in the future (turbo upgrade) etc you may as well outlay some more pennies and get a electronic one

I bought some pods (with the adapter plates) for my gtr last week, is it just a case of removing all the factory airbox and fitting up the pods, or is it a little more work then im thinking? I know I wont get a full gain from them until I get a cold air setup, which will get done soon but i figure seein as I have them here I may aswell put em on...
