Im coming down the coast in a few weeks (im in mackay) to buy a new car (import) and i dont have a very wide knowledge of the caryards down there. I'll be travelling all around the Brisbane, Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast areas, so would you's be able to list the import yards in those areas that you know of?

Btw- Ill be buying a nissan.

Cheers

Theres a rather nice one on Old cleveland road at coorparoo. They always seem to have something a little different and at least try to present their stock in a tidy manner. The guys seemed friendly enough too.

Theres another on the western end of the magic mile that looks like it takes a little pride in what it does too.

AutoForce was the name of the one at Eight Mile Plains - just down the road from Garden City shopping centre. Like I said its been a while but the head guy there always put well presented cars on the lot and most of them already had the kit/wheels/paint done so you didn't have to worry about it... pay for it tho...

If thats the one that was just before Miles Platting road on the left I dont think they are there any more.

I got mine from a place called Brisbane Unique Cars. They have a website. The guys there are rather nice and will move on price on the cars. Just get your own Roadworthy done rather then theirs just to be safe. I got a feeling the roadworthy done on my car wasn't too great so I got somebody else to check it out and Brisbane Unique Cars were more then happy to fix the problems found.

What are you looking for???

Modified, stock, R32/33/34, GTS/GTST/GTR

Price range???

Honestlly, Your best off having a look at whats for sale here on SAU...

You will buy 3-5k cheaper than a yard, and most of us know the cars/owners already...

(So you can get a second or third opinion)

AJM motorsports on Compton Rd, near underwood or Kingston i think. They have good cars, but can be dodgey ive heard. One good thing about buying fom a dealer is that you get a warranty with your purchase. You can always negotiate the price.

If u ever get up to Marybrough, Brad Bottcher used cars up there is really good, got awesome quality cars and prices cheaper than most car yards in the Brisbane area. I got mine from there :D

I see that yard regularly on my way to hervery bay. He does present his stock in a clean and proffessional manner. :blink:

      J50 clock date suddenly reset to January 1

      By suko · Posted

      I've got a 2011 J50 that I imported six years ago. The unmodified factory AV system date and time has always been correct ( Japanese timezone of course ) up until last month. About two weeks ago, at engine start, the system wished me a happy new year ( in Japanese of course ). I can't think of anything that would make the system think that the date had changed, unless the GPS component has failed/reset somehow ? I checked the GPS reception in the system settings, and it can still see the satellites. Has any other J50 owner had this happen ?  It's no biggie, just annoying that it tells me the wrong date anytime I start the engine. 😅

      Love following your adventures on IG, hopefully if you're still around in Japan when we visit again wouldn't mind going for a few beers with you (that's if you're keen on hearing how I hate Nissans).

      Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
