Hi All

I am rarely one to complain about bad service as I usually seem to get pretty good service in the car industry but I have to warn people of Nengun.com

They are a Japanese performance parts business who prides themselves on supplying Jap parts at cheap prices but I would warn anyone considering dealing with them not to.

Over 2 months ago I order a very expensive item from them which arrived today and ended up being the wrong part. Originally I emailed them as I could not find the part that I required and received an email from someone who gave me a link to the item on their web site. I clicked on the link and there was a vague description of the item and a photo that looked exactly like what I was after. I placed an order trusting that I was being led in the right direction and was told I would receive it within 21 days at the latest.

Today I received the part and it wasn’t what I ordered, so I emailed them and they basically told me off saying it was my fault and that it’s now my problem.

I have never come across such bad service, especially from an internet based business that should look after their clientele more so as they don’t have face to face contact with there clients.

Anyway, be aware that these guys aren’t into providing service at their cheap price. I guess the old analogy stands; you pay for what you get.

I WANTED an RB25 Greddy Plenum and GOT an RB26 Plenum.

They even sent me the link and the pic on the link was even of the RB25 Greddy plenum.

I complained about what they did and they basically told me it was my fault.

They were the ones not being clear and that has now cost me.

P.S. If anyone needs an RB26DETT Greddy Plenum, they can have it for my cost.

Yeah lately orders seem to take at least a month to arrive, I've ordered four smallish things over a year and its taken longer and longer to arrive

But... there would be thousands of people that get what they wanted on time, its a gamble, they must deal with a shit load of orders and you got unlucky :D

Sorry to hear that. I've only ever dealt with greenline.jp for expensive parts and cheaper stuff through nengun. Greenline has never mucked me around and always confirm the availablity of the part before any money is exchanged...

I will second Greenline. I have always had great service from them and the prices are generally the same if not better than Nengun. Having said that, I would happily pay more to deal with Greenline.

Yeah I'm having issues with them too. Still waiting on some pretty simple things I thought that were ordered on May 21st. No idea on the status of them either since they shipped 1 item from the order and basically then list the order as being closed with just giving me a note saying the other stuff will be shipped as soon as they can.

They shouldn't take $$$ for parts they don't have especially when before you click confirm it says the order will be shipped 2 days later. But what can you do.

I don't see how this could be stuffed up.

The history of your order should be there. Check it and it whould be obvious who made the mistake.

The 2 part numbers in question are only 1 digit out and nearly look the same at first glance.

I'm not saying who's at fault but it would be really easy to pick the wrong one in the instance.

Ive bought a few things via o/s companys and most seem to take a month to get to me

so I wasnt worried when my ganadors took that long to arrive from Nengun

how did you order the wrong part when it tells you which model it suits?

and if you are logged in you enter your car details and it highlights the correct type to suit your car

http://www.nengun.com/trust-greddy/intake-...-nissan-skyline

you clicked the wrong one?

delivery to me worked out to be $150ish I can see why they wouldnt want to were the cost of getting it sent back and resending the right one

so I guess it is your fault shouldnt be to hard to sell it and source the right one

I've used Nengun a fair bit lately too and to date I haven't had any problem. Fair enough sometimes it does feel like forever before you get your parts but if you're not in a hurry (like me) I guess that doesn't matter.

      S1 headlights?

      By Duncan · Posted

      It might be worth having a good look at the chassis behind the bumper then; most people prefer the series 2 look so it might have been changed to cheaper parts as part of an earlier repair

      By Celticsfan03 · Posted

      The car itself a series 2. I was just curious about the headlights and just wanted to confirm that they were series 1. Good to know the rest of the front end is series 1. It’ll be easier for me to find parts on the aftermarket side of things lol

      If you've wired up the coils & injectors properly, & have the neo CAS loom for the trigger, it should all work. The VCT works the same way so just different plugs between s1 & neo. Assuming DBW if no IAC. Don't bother with the stock boost solenoid with g4x.

      THERE IS NO IAT SENSOR ON ANY SINGLE TURBO RB. And the one on an RB26 is not for "engine control" - it's really too big and too slow and is only used for over-temp alarming (as far as I can tell). Anyway, you don't have one. You want/need one for the Link, then you need to buy one, find a spot for it, and wire it in. You do know that the stock boost solenoid is not capable of "control", right? It is merely on or off, for the low boost (5 psi) and high boost (7psi), which the ECU enforces mostly based on gear. The stock solenoid is not for PWM control and is not plumbed up in a way to provide it. If you want to control boost properly, then you need a proper MAC valve. And yes, you can wire either of them direct to the ECU. Well, I assume you can - I don't know what the boost solenoid pins on the plug and play Link are capable of. They really should be as capable as any normal Link - but seeing as it is plg and play, it might be limited to stock functionality. Read the doco.   You really do just want to plug stuff together without understanding how it works, right? I can't help you there. I don't know the plug types or pinning on half the stuff you're asking about. If I had to do it I would sit down with the wiring diagrams, the car/looms and a multimeter and work out what is what.
