1st Group Buy Link – http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/t177294.html

2nd Group Buy Link – http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Cu...rs-t187319.html

It’s Back! This is the Third group buy for RB20, RB25, CA18 and SR20 coil pack covers. These covers are custom made and produced by AM Performance.

Made out of aluminum, with your choice of several CNC cut design’s (pre-designed from our database or you make your own design) with either a professional polished/mirror finish or professional powder coated

finish (with additional oil and heat resistant paint added so it won’t be peeling off, with a variety of colours available).

If you’re interested in buying then please read all this information as I’m sure most of your questions will be answered here!

Cover Designs

AM performance already has a vast database full of designs ready to be cut (such as name automotive brands, performance brands etc), or you can create your own personal design which can be anything you want! (within reason, keep in mind that there are obvious limitations with this sort of work)

If you choose to have your own custom design then please contact me with what you want done with either a detailed description, a rough picture from Microsoft paint, attached brand names that you want traced etc. I will send your request away to AM Performance so they can make your final design up on the computer, once that is done I will send the final result back to your for confirmation so the work can begin directly after the group buy period is over.

If you're after a existing design that AM Performance has then please point out the picture and that will be sorted!

Polished/Mirror Finish: The picture’s below are product examples that were made for members of this forum from the previous group buy’s. As you can see the finish is a very high quality and a perfect match for any other polished/chrome parts you may already have on your car/in you’re engine bay.

Powder coated Finish: once again pictured below is some product examples that were made for members of this forum from the previous group buy’s in the powder coated finish. A range of colours are available such as black, silver, gold, blue, white, red etc. the powder coat is extremely durable with firm quality texture.

Price + What’s Included

down to business, the total cost of your order will be $145 ($130 for the cover and $15 for Australia wide delivery). Just to be crystal clear this amount includes the aluminum cover with chosen finish (polished or powder coated + paint), chosen custom design (pre designed or preferred custom design, CNC cut into the cover), new set of stainless screws (stainless or black) for the cover and Australia wide postage

If you order multiple covers the cost for postage stays the same.

Group-Buy Guidelines

- The group buy will be open for 25 days ( starts Wednesday 13th Feburary, 2008 and will run until Sunday 9th March, 2008 - 7:00pm )

- Full payment is required before or on the finishing date – otherwise you will be left out. So if you place an order but chose to pay at a later date then please try not to forget!

- if you have chosen to do your own personal design then the drawings must be confirmed by you before the work starts – to make sure you know what you’re getting.

- if you expressed interest but did not pay, ill send you a PM roughly 3 days before the group-buy ends reminding you to make the deposit for the cover, but if you do not pay by the 9th of march then you will unfortunately be left out from the buy.. there will be no extended payment periods.

- Special Note: - because of the nature of this work it is predicted that the manufacturing time will be roughly 2-3 weeks. That means it’s likely to be 2-3 weeks from the end date of the group buy to the cover arriving at you’re door. But it must be mentioned that in the previous group buy’s there have been some delays due to such things as material problems, late confirmations, late payments etc, so please don’t be worried if the products are running late, they are guaranteed to arrive but it may require your patience. I will keep this topic constantly updated.

no worries mate :D plenty of time left, let me know when you're ready

Just want to check before i make a payment if i can get the nismo one in Polished/Mirror Finish to suit a rb25det.

cheers

Dave

sure can! if you want to make a order for this cover then PM me you're details and i'll fill out an order for you :cheeres:

i just got the final word back from AM Performance about the GTR covers and everything looks great :P

for a replacement plate (highlighted below) with custom CNC cut design into aluminium plate (same as the RB,SR and CA covers) will be $60. unfortunately engraving isn't available - only a full cut through design is possible at the moment

rb26dettri8.jpg

and for a design water-cut directly into the standard RB26 cover will be $50 - the waterjet process is a much more in depth an timely procedure with both the setting up and cutting of the cover than the aluminium covers.

if anyone is interested then please contact me :):P

hmm i think that would be something that you would have to get done at you're local body shop mate. these cover's can be ordered without a finish if you were to do something like that :)

    • My experience with Rising Sun Exports Before agreeing to the sale I tried to do as much research as I could (obviously), his Facebook reviews are 98% and he goes Live at least once or twice a week. I contacted 2 people in the UK who had used him for their imports, both had positive feedback. His explanation and talk through of the import process was thorough, answering any query no matter how stupid it was. It felt as soon as the money was sent, communication dropped off. I asked for shipping updates every 2 weeks or so, not wanting to pester him, he never had any updates. I wasn't informed the car had been dropped off at the port, I only found out by his Facebook story. I asked for the photos taken at the port, knowing he would need some for insurance purposes. I received a few 5 second clips and that's it. When asked again, he said his staff had them. Weeks later I asked again, he tells me he doesn't have any, but does have 50 photos from the original advert. I never received them. I eventually got the documents sent via WhatsApp after I mentioned the port was requesting them. I purchased a CarVX report, to find out the vehicle is a Grade R with recorded accident damage, first recorded in 2017 when it was first auctioned. He never told me the grade, then again I didn't ask. His response was "Grade R means nothing, it wasn't chassis damage". Still, I would have liked to have been informed about it. Jon prides himself on being open and honest when it comes to inspecting cars, it's his main job doing so at the auctions for customers. When the vehicle arrived in the UK I noticed a few little cosmetic issues. It's a 21 year old car so it wasn't going to be mint condition. The side skirts are cracked on each corner and the sealant is failing. The front grill on the bonnet/hood isn't secured very well, mounting studs are missing. Both minor things, but again, it would have been nice to be told. During a Facebook Live walk around video of the vehicle, he mentioned it has a front Whiteline anti roll bar/sway bar. While on the inspection ramp, I noticed the stock item has been installed. When first questioned, his response was "the ARB? Switched? Since when, it never had them". Since sending video and photo evidence I've not received a response. I'm probably being over critical of the overall condition of an old car, but all I wanted was honesty (which he claims to have). I'm aware I wasn't his only customer, he's busy doing XYZ but other reviews praise him for great communication with regular updates and photos, I felt I didn't receive the same treatment. 
    • I was able to get some underside photos while the car was on the ramp The suspension is all Altezza/IS200/IS300 so getting part's will hopefully be less of a headache
    • Welcome to my 2004 Toyota Mark ii IR-V Fortuna (series 2) With a 1JZ-GTE powerplant under the bonnet (hood) it'll give me plenty of scope for power upgrades. For those who aren't familiar with imports, the 1JZ-GTE is a 2.5L 6 cylinder VVTi engine with a single turbocharger. This has the factory R154 5 speed gearbox, along with a aftermarket 2 way LSD differential (brand unknown). Under the arches are a set of CST Zero 1 alloys, 18x9 +30 225/40 up front and 18x9.5 +15 265/35 on the rear. The car was quite low in Japan and there's evidence of the wheels catching the rolled arches/fenders. The tyre's aren't great so I'm in two minds whether to replace both or just the tyres and put up with the wider wheels on the rear. The car still uses stock brakes with the addition of some braided hoses. The exterior is stock with the exception of a BN Sports front bumper and a replacement Fortuna grill  Moving to the interior, the steering wheel has been replaced with a dished MOMO steering wheel (which will get swapped for my Momo Tuner for the time being) Defi Link Gauges are mounted above the climate controls and on the A pillar, the Oil Temp,Oil Pressure,Water Temp and Boost gauges should help with spirited and track driving  The stock seats have been replaced with some retrimmed Recaro bucket seats. Being a larger build these are a little snug, unfortunately the orange isn't for me so I'll look into replacing these down the line. Other modifications include a twin plate clutch, Blitz intercooler, Evolve alloy radiator, a stainless exhaust with decat, HKS EVC-S boost controller and coil overs
    • Apologies for the long read My R34 GTT was up for sale at the beginning of spring due to a few repairs creeping up. The strut tops needed replacing, roof and bonnet (hood) painting (yay for 3 stage pearl) and the underside stripped and treated. I sold the car which allowed me to be in a much better place financially. Leading up to the sale I was already thinking about the replacement. In an ideal world it needed to be a good all-rounder. Something I can mess around with, modify, do track days, do the school run, go on long drives etc.  Options included but not limited to... Laurel C35, Evo 8/9, Civic FD2, Impreza Hawkeye, Aristo and even an Audi S4 Avant (I've already got the Mazda 6 wagon). But there was always one car at the top of the list The Toyota Mark ii JZX110 I found an advert on a Facebook group for an example in Japan, from a seller called Jon at Rising Sun Exports. A few messages back and forth and Jon calls me from Yokohama one morning (or afternoon in his case). He briefly explained the import process, the costs involved and a repeat of the advert. After much deliberation, the price was agreed and the sale was locked in. I've never imported a vehicle so I jumped into the unknown head first. The money transfer was completed through wise.com (fees apply), very easy to use and the money was with him within a day or two.  The car suspension was raised for the vessel and the car dropped off at the port. It was 7 weeks later when the bill of lading was received and the freight invoice sent to me, followed by the export certificate a couple of days after (both digital copies) In the mean time the port had been in contact. I needed an agent to deal with the NOVA (notification of vehicle arrival) along with the tax/duty invoice, this was £75.00. The port also had a fee of £100, I'm guessing to cover the cost of the 10 day 'free storage' and for moving the car off the boat etc. They need a copy of the vehicle invoice, freight invoice and export certificate to allow the vehicle to pass through customs. The vessel arrived on Tuesday 5th August, the tax/duty invoice was generated and sent over. This is generally tax 20% and duty 10% of the vehicle value. Although the invoice came in at a higher amount than I had calculated. Once HMRC had received the payment the vehicle could be released from customs. I thought once the tax/duty was paid you could collect at any point, that's not the case. Your agent will need to book a collection slot, I requested Thursday 7th which was accepted, with a 9:00am slot allocated. It was a 5:00am start from Norfolk heading to Southampton. We eventually found the compound, upon presenting the bill of lading and some ID they released the car (they drove it out of the compound to the front ready for us to load up). The email from the port stated each slot had a 10 minute window, which seemed abit farfetched but the staff said it's not a strict rule. We were there for approx. 30-40 mins in total. A week prior to collecting I contacted my garage and explained the situation, I was able to get an inspection slot that afternoon. For the registration, DVLA require the car to be insured, for this I used a company called Adrian Flux who can insure the vehicle using the VIN number. 
    • Hey guys, looking for these side skirts if anyone can help me out.
