Pleased to hear the feedback thanks :(

Everything is automated, you can place bids at at any time of the day, yourself. You can transfer money to us, via Paypal (bank account, credit card or paypal balance) any time of the day & automatically ends up in your account. If you are outbid, you are notified. You can track your orders, and automatically receive updates of when it arrives in our warehouse, and every other step of the way until it hits your door step.

There's much more to the site than just browsing :P

Once again if anybody needs some help with searching for something specific, just yell out :)

www.importmonster.com.au is proud to be a sponsor of Skylines Australia ;)

If anybody has any questions regarding our business, web site or Yahoo Japan in general, I welcome you to post here, or PM me.

Thumbs up to you Churchy, clarified it all nicely there. Monster FTW! :)

Good to see you've finally made an account here after 100 years too hehe

Thanks Ash, Fangers used to keep my busy enough but most of us are now driving more sensible cars... except for you actually!! Your probably one of the only ones who has more power now than a few years ago. Actually probably me too thinking about it :)

what happens with postage costs? how does that get worked out? site looks great bye the way. gotta love that engrish

The Japanese sellers will not ship internationally - which is why the rest of the world can't buy direct off Yahoo. Import Monster is like having a mate who lives in Japan. When you win an auction, we make contact with the seller, pay them and have them ship the item to our Japanese warehouse. From there, we ship them to you. Depending on which part of the world you live in (yes Monster is global) you have various shipping methods available.

In Australia, we can ship items via EMS which is a priotity air method, trackable with insurance. EMS takes 3-4 business days once it leaves Japan. We also offer container shipping too, which is more suited to larger items like body kits, bonnets, sets of rims, engines, gearboxes, etc.

All shipping is charged AT COST. No mark up, no handling fee. We have an estimater / calculator on every auction page that will allow you to check out various shipping methods available, so you can see what the final cost might be. Although we estimate what costs might be, you are only charged actual costs, so if something comes in cheaper than the site estimated, you win :laugh:

We also offer BUNDLED SHIPPING. Any estimates you get are based on shipping an individual item. We offer to hold your items are our warehouses for you, whilst you shop. When you have finished shopping, we will bundle items where possible to reduce costs to you. Lets say you bought some LED taillights, along with a set of badges. We could throw in the badges in the box the lights are packed in, effectivly removing the freight for the badges from that point forward.

Seems like a good thing, ill sign up and have a look around for any parts i might need =)

Once you have logged in, hit 'auction' then scroll down the category list to 'popular searches'. Unbranch Nissan, and hit Skyline 33 (or whatever category suits you). I just checked, the 33 search returned 8,351 auctions over 168 pages. That orta keep you busy at work :(

i love this site. just won a power fc delivered for 170 bux approx

$34 for the pfc and the rest on delivery

There are some real bargains to be had. Yes the shipping is expensive but your sending stuff from Japan to Australia, and it also has to go an extra step from the seller in Japan to our warehouse - this is why we charge shipping at cost - so you know your not being bent over here.

Its like all auction sites, keep your eyes peeled and you will find bargains guaranteed!

    • Hard to say, just pop the rocker covers off and have a look if you think it's cammed. You probably need to replace the valve cover gasket/half moons anyways.
    • From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 😢 
    • Remember this is 1988 tech.
    • Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.
