Ordered Z32 AFM + connector plug (+/- $440 delivered) last Friday, order & payment was processed by Saturday, and AFM on its way to Australia by Monday, and arrived here today. About 5 days. No problems. As it's less than $1000 no issue with custom duty.

I have never ordered from Nengun.. a bit hesitant based on the poor experiences of others.

I have ordered quite a few things from Greenline and Perfect Run and couldn't be happier with their services.

You will find that buying things from japan is just the same as everything else, you have to compare prices. Sometimes Perfect Run has an item cheaper than the others for eg Splitfire coilpacks and sometimes greenline will have the best price for another item. Don't just think that one place has the cheapest price for everything. They will each have made different deals wiith suppliers and one company could be closer to some suppliers than others so that will effect their prices also.

i mainly use nengun for how easy it is to order... how ever i am now looking at both perfect run and greenline regardless if i have to send emails to order or not (i hate emails)

first time i was a little frustrated but in the end when u look at the EMS tracking and soon as the package hit australia 5am, it was at my doorstep other side of australia by 11am... so be patient and its well worth it

second time i just ordered something

Updated on 31-Aug-2006 at 4:58pm > confirmed and shipment estimate

Updated on 1-Sep-2006 at 3:07am > payment received

I just bought a complete Trust T88-38GK kit here in Victoria cheaper than Nengun,Greenline or Perfect run can supply.I dont know why everyone thinks its cheaper to buy direct from them.

In fact,I got 3 prices from 3 different shops,2 of which had the kit in stock,and they were all cheaper than the above mentioned option.

Look in OZ before you go overseas,cheaper and quicker.

Well if you're going to mention getting stuff cheaper than all 3 of the japanese direct suppliers, how about telling everyone what store it was from...

Okay,Greenline was the cheapest from Japan at $6300 plus whatever taxes are applicable,at 10% its another $600 +,Croydon Racing was $6200 as was RMS.I got it for $6000,pick it up Monday,not sure if the shop wants me to post it up.I will check with him on Monday and if he's cool I will.

No 4 week wait,no Customs wanting $xxxx,warranty issues handled in my own backyard,no wrong product sent.

I have spent untold thousands modifying my 2 Nissans,I'm pretty thorough at getting the right price without ever haggling,which is a pet hate of mine,and I've yet to have to order from overseas for a better price.

I absolutely hate waiting for anything.

Cheers

I have had 5 orders from nengun, the larger orders do seem to take a little while to get organised, but when shipping is a fair portion of the cost of an order it is nice to be able to look at what adding in an extra part will cost you and how the affect the shipping without having to write countless emails back and forth. Items have always arrived in perfect condition, well packaged, sometimes suprisingly quickly, other times quite slow.

If you are after a non critical part, or having the car off the road for an amount of time for a rebuild etc anyway it pays to plan out what you need and try to order in $1000 lots ( if possible to save on customs and postage). That said i had an order worth close to $2000 and did not get stung with customs

I am still waiting on an order from a few weeks ago, but I changed my mind on two items so this time it is my fault (ordered 740cc injectors instead of 555cc)

As far as i have seen nengun have been significantly cheaper than local suppliers - but it all depends on the item i suppose.

Greenline on the other hand ( i was going to try them for the second order) they never responded to my 4 emails.So I gave up on them and went back to nengun,

Until nengun start keeping stock of the items that they sell I will not use them. If they have to source the item then they have no right to charge me for it...dont give a damn what thir website says...its not right.

I know for a fact that shipping only takes 72 hours max from Malaysia/China/Japan/HK to anywhere in Australia

I take back some of my praise after yesterday

I ordered 740cc injectors and then after I paid for these I asked for 555cc injectors instead. There is a $100 difference in the price and they told me that they charge a 25% re-stocking fee as they can not return the 740cc injectors to their supplier.

I expected my $100 back, if not a refund at LEAST a credit for my next order.

I have spent a LOT of money through nengun and i was planning to spend a lot more.

I knew there was time to change the order because they usually take a few weeks before they are sent off.

Even if they do need to hold onto the 740cc injectors I imagine they would be able to sell them VERY easily.

I did not realise they were just a middle man operation and that they didnt actually keep parts in stock. If they stocked parts then a) shipping would be MUCH faster and b) it wouldnt matter if i changed the order they would just ship different ones

And thats my rant

looks like i have to cancel my order for my cam gears, after i ordered them 6 weeks ago. they have changed the delivery time 4 times, and it is about to be changed again....

i used greenline for the first time on friday, and it was great. Jason sent out the item straight away, after the payment is cleared...and the item was cheaper than nengun. looks like poor service from nengun is gonna let them down.

    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.
