This link Yahoo Japan is a parts search on V35 and their is a few people on the forum who have bought parts off Yahoo I know a lot of people use Rampant to source everything up to cars off Yahoo and he brings stuff over by container which is the key because it saves a shit load on freight,

I have bought cars, rims, dashes and some small stuff of it, key is who you use so stay away from the back yarder's offering to source parts, only use someone who a mate referrers.

Google or download Foxlingo (an extension for Firefox) to translate to English.

awesome.. thanks!

so if i find a part i can't ust buy it? i have to get it through someone else?

You need to pay a fee each month and need to be based in Japan to use it, plus the Japanese can be a pain if you don't know what you are doing, just use soe one like Rampant who use it day in day out.

I've used a few different people all with good results and prices

"Blitz" (nick on these forums, great prices and excellent service - yahoo only)

http://www.slidewizeimports.com/index.html (sames as Blitz)

"Streeter" e-mail - [email protected] (Jesse is also on these forums, great prices, very very good service, and can get almost anything, I think though only shipping through EMS at this stage. I've just order Rays wheels through him. Best price I found by around $500. Lives in Japan, and great for the harder to find parts)

    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
