Strange thought getting em from jap, theres heaps more in america, not that hard to find in australia either, will set u back about 30k for a decent model 69 (top pic is a 69 S/SS i think) camaro or for around $15-20k u can get a crap condition one and restore it. And yeh, there are permits that let u drive left hand drive cars (cept u have to have a gay sticker on the bumper)

we've imported a few now... mainly for collectors. From the US and from japan. Although we do more corvettes than camaros.

They come in under the 1988 and prior rule. So compliance is minimal as far as mechanicals are concerned. If the car is over 30 years old you can keep it LHD and drive it on the road that way... but if its a younger car then it need to be converted to RHD, we have compliancers that can do that all for ya if need be.... albeit at a much higher price than the cost of compliance for a 30yo muscle car.

also do J-spec offer CIF or DDP terms?

or only free on board (FOB)??

Most cars are listed as FOB price because that's the more accepted industry standard however we will look after shipping and other parts of the process for you also - you can pay a CIF price if you want the car put on a ship and nothing else, but usually our clients pay FOB price up front and other costs as they are due throughout the process. If you wanted a rough quote for delivery to your door once the car lands in Australia then we can do that also.

Basically just let us know how much or how little of the process you want us to do for you and what you prefer to arrange yourself, we are very flexible.

Prices can vary a lot based on the car condition, obviously something that has been fully restored will cost a lot more than an average car that is showing it's age - you could spend anything from maybe $15,000 landed for a rough example through to $50,000 or more for something really quite stunning.

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By MBS206 · Posted

      It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!

      The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.

      What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.

      Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
