I just did a price comparison (in Yen) between Nengun, Perfect Run & Greenline of a kit list I'm about to order and found each place had some items cheaper than the others.

Interestingly Nengun were only the cheapest on the HKS GTSS turbo kit (but considerably so) and the PFC. Greenline had the cheapest SARD 700cc injectors, Nismo gearknob, HKS dumps, Tomei Poncams + pulley set, and Tomei sump baffle. Nengun & Greenline had the same price for the Tomei manifolds. Perfect Run had the cheapest prices for a Nismo fuel pump and AFMs. According to their website, Perfect Run don't stock Tomei parts.

This just reinforces the point a few people have made here to shop around! Nengun are not always the cheapest and you may end up waiting for parts that you paid more for.

anyone else bought smaller things eg oil filters but where charged with individual postage on all of them. Thought would be cheaper for postage when they are combined?? my case bought 5xpower enterprise filters and trust gear knob but was charged del cost for all of them individually. Does Nengun do a combined del cost??

thats what i thought they did at first

but they dont

add up each product delivered, the total will be less

dont forget the "delivery" fee also contains tax

anyway....damn nengun is slow...sure price is cheaper, but they're damn slow

ordered my dumps/front 1/2/07, set for shipment 13/2/07 and now its 24/2/07, after 11 days..im still waiting

thats coz i couldnt find HKS dumps/front for BNR34 anywhere in australia

I went EMS Special for my turbos from Nengun.

I ordered HKS dumps and NISMO gearknob today from Greenline (my NISMO gearknob from the SAU groupbuy never turned up :P ).

Interestingly whilst Greeenline had the cheapest prices the official quote from them was exactly the same as Nengun's. Greenline's shipping with EMS was dearer than Nengun's and the exchange rate they use is less favourable for Australian buyers. However, I still went with Greenline for the dumps and knob to try another vender.

I'd be going with EMS special, that way all the big brand markings are removed..alot less chance of it going "missing"

Yea good idea, its only an extra $11 nzd, i will also ask them if they could please not display the real value of the item, i dont want it getting stolen or tampered with etc, also if they dont show the real value hopefully i wont get charged importing tax when it arrives in NZ. Fingers crossed :wave:

Yup everything is going sweet, it says they have recieved my payment, my order is being processed and under shipping it says 11th march so i guess thatis the estimated date that delivery will start (correct me if im wrong please)

Cheers for the help guys.

Yea they kinda milk you a bit but in the end it will arrive...

The worst part of buying o/s is when it comes through customs, if its over 1k they want 10% tax and nengun put 120,000 yen lol (assholes)

I had to show customs that my power fc was cheaper than 1k which all in all was a hassle but regardless the parts came... happy with em :action-smiley-069:

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
