hey guys,

Just wondering if anyone here has dealt with either Greenline Motorsports or Nungen Performance Parts, when buying their parts, and if so what where your experiences like - which is better??

Looking at buying an Apexi-AVCr - so was just wondering which is the better of the two, too get my hard earned cash and I surpose to a degree which can I trust the most...?

Thanks for any help.... :uh-huh:

both seem to be good sites....ive bought stuff from nengun with no hassles. i would assume greenline would be the same as they are both in the same business....so i dont think trust is much of a concern, just comes down to who has the better prices:D:D

I got my Apexi pod and S-AFC from Nengun last year. Brilliant service, the pod to fit an R33 was quite rare at the time (a lot more common now), hardly anyone in Australia had them. He did a lot of hunting around until he found one, and he kept me up to date with emails etc. The parts arrived in perfect condition, and I'll definitely buy through him again when I get some spare cash together :O

Oh, and the pod worked out to be around $90 plus postage. Compare that price to what you see on some Australian websites! I forget the price of the S-AFC, but I think it was around $550. Both were well under $700 including postage anyway.

Nengun. There's not much info there, send him an email.

Exactly the problem with nengun !!!

Greenline has an excelent website, up2date prices and plenty of info.

Nengun might as well not even have a website, prices are out of date, stock is shown on the website that either isnt instock, no longer capable of getting, etc etc. C'mon Nengun either spend 1 night re-doing your website or pay someone $500 to get it done professionally.

Working in the ISP industry i can tell you right now that your website is extremely important as its your image and image is everything.

Who would I buy from? Greenline.

Website is excelent, email support is fantastic and they have everything that I need at a great price.

thanks guys for all your help,

sorry i haven't posted a reply earlier, but i'm in the middle of my uni exams so it's been a bit rushed at the moment for time

just wanted to make sure either of the two websites were good and trustworthy - u know, got to check these things when it comes to hard earned cash being spent on parts from places i don't even know - greenline does look the pick of the two at the moment - really cheap prices - makes you think why anyone would buy through a shop???

cheers

Nengun is extremely reliable, trustworthy and best of course, cheap! Brent is a top guy and would have no hesitation in recommending him. i think that it's unfair to judge him on what his website is like. Sure, some things are out of date on there and with the fluctuating Japanese Yen and Aussie dollar of course his prices and stock won't always be accurate. Nengun has a business to run, and being a "one man band" i'm sure that he is extremely busy filling in all of our orders....

I agree however that a non-updated website appears to be a non-active business. I know that is wrong in this case (sometimes quite the opposite.. too busy to update the website), but it can be the perception. Esp a business that does runs pretty much via the web to transact.. so i can understand the uncertainty there. But yer, i work in the web industry myself - lol :P

anyway, both are apparently good sites.

the only beef i've had with nengun is the times i've ordered things they've been nabbed by customs and i've had to pay duties on them, thus making them not really worth the effort

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
