Nengun


Recommended Posts

PerfectRun is a healthy alternative to Nengun if theyre giving you the gripes.

Greenline ain't too bad either.

Nengun really does seem to be a mixed bag of late. Sometimes the orders come sweet other times a big pain in the rear.

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 receive around 20 packages a year from Japan and plenty of times it takes longer than 72 hours. no way does it ever take weeks, but saying 72hours max is rubbish. It generally takes 4 days, very rarely is it ever quicker than that. and sometimes it's a day longer.

after having a look each time i have ordered from nengun it appears to have taken at least 3 weeks from money clear untill i recieve the parts.. and saying 72 hours to get parts from japan to anywere in australia.. is complete utter bullshit.. ever lived in cairns? it takes almost 72 hours for an 'airbag' to come from adelaide to cairns..

i am in the process of ordering a few parts to greenline am looking forward to it compared to nengun.. i am goin to avoid using them at all costs after this last order.. and as for the bloke who made the mistake of ordering 740's instead of 555's.. if they are goin to charge that fee tell them to get f**ked and you'd like the 740's instead.. could always use that big of extra fuel later down the track.. powerfc's run those injectors perfectly fine in the rb25's

As i posted before, i ordered a gearknob from them. It took them almost 4 weeks from the day i made payment till the day i receive the knob at the post office. They have to be more efficient with their orders. Great prices i have to admit

Shipping time end to end via EMS takes no loner than 72 hours from most parts of Asia to an Australian doorstep. I too have ordered nearly 20K woth of items from Japan and this is the turnaround I get.

Perhaps yours takes longer because your taking into account the time it takes for your payment to clear..ie The package is not sent till at least 24 hours after payment, hence the longer wait you presume is based on shipping times.

Take a look at the EMS history of one of your recent orders...you should see that the time from lodgement at the senders post office and the time you signed off on it. Good chance this time will be consistently under 72 (even 48) hours for transit time.

Some good news,

nengun said they just sold the 740cc injectors so I did not get charged a restocking fee and they gave me the difference in prices as credit (only $59 but its the principle of the matter). The way I see it, is that if a company has a customer that is spending a fair amount of $ through them, then they should be looked after (even if they are spending $20 they should be looked after).

Happy with their response and i have a bit of credit in my account there so looks like i WILL be buying through nengun again. I specifically didnt ask for the $ to be returned to my account, I thought that for $59 credit they ensure that I come back and shop again (which i have done a few times already)

Fuel consumption is killing me and i still havent fixed what ever it is thats making my car so thirsty, after the turbo goes on and i have it tuned I want/need really good fuel economy for a while so that I can afford to run the car.

And yes i have lived in cairns, takes 4-5 days to get an 'express' parcel from sydney or melbourne.

I also posted my disapproval of nenguns service and then found soon after my account on their website had been deleted. I will now only use Perfect Run and Greenline in the future as they have been very helpful and always had prompt service from them.

  • 1 month later...

i dont have experience with turbos. but from what i can gather anything over $1000 can be taxed if the package is checked via customs.

Also expect to wait ATLEAST 4 weeks for the part to arrive. i ordered an oil filler cap on the 18th last month, its due to arrive on the 16th this month

yep, you sure will.

My GT-SS was less than 3k to purchase, around 3300 by the time i got em... pity the garretts werent out @ the cheap price they are now :)

the garrett t04z is pretty similar iirc... for the price saving the different doesnt seem a great deal

I ordered a few bits through Nengun on the 22nd last month, hoping to see them soon.

one Q for peeps who have ordered from nengun before, if it has a shipment date in the details (mine is 8th oct) how long would it usually take after that date? I haven't received any EMS numbers or anything.

go to your order on the site and scroll down, your EMS will be there with a link to a jap website that tells you exaclt the same as whats on nengun haha. it will say something like

"shipment prepared"

"shipment arrived at place of outgoing"

"shipment gone out from place of outgoing"

thats what I expected to find too, but it still has 'processing' as the status. No links or EMS numbers in the info under the order. I'll shoot them an email, maybe they can clear it up.

    • This morning I carefully reinstalled the manifold and started looking at a couple of things I need to do.  Heat wrap arrived sometime today so I popped into the shed with the missus dishwashing gloves and started wrapping the first half of the dump and the screamer/plumb back.  Once I do the second half I'll be able to final fit the turbo and exhaust up.  Also pulled the harness out today and started terminating it at the ECU end. A connector is done, just need to run the remaining wires that arent in the harness - 12v, gnd and couple I/O
    • A31 is pretty much the same thing without HiAIDS I mean CAS, no improvement lol. Not to late to send it.
    • Thanks for all the replies! I also wanted to ask if wheels that were fitted on Ford Falcons would fit the 350GTs as well? In the area I'm at there aren't that many options for secondhand wheels and new ones here are way out of my budget. From what I've seen, most of the wheels that are available that were fitted on Ford Falcons have an offset of +33 to +36, with a centre bore of 70.5mm whereas the stock 350GT's ones are 66mm, can't seem to find any hubcentric rings that fit that difference though. 
    • 215/45/18 tyres are probably a little on the low side compared to the factory tyre, it should be closer to a 245/45/19, which will get you about an extra 11mm of height, and should make you speedo read a bit closer to reality. 245/45/19s will be a bit too far the other way and you risk a speeding ticket as your speedo might read slower than your actual speed.  245/40/19s would be correct if you are going to 19in rims, they will give you a similar total diameter to the 245/45/18 tyres.  
    • That's something I forgot to put in my list. The aggressive anti-squat in R32 is a f**king menace. I still need to decide if I'm going to drag the subframe out of my car and weld in the GKTech corrector kit. The main reason to dither is the need to switch to spherical joints in the lower arm to account for the twist induced in the rear pivot caused by lowering the front pivot. And yes...we do put better subframes in R32s, and I wish I'd gotten an S14 one instead of an A31 when I did the "take off and nuke it from orbit" HICAS delete all those years ago.
