Reliable Import Yards In Brisbane/gold Coast/sunny Coast


Recommended Posts

Morning All,

Just wondering if anyone has used AJM Imports on Compton Road before? I get a dodgy vibe from them so has anyone bought a car there? Good service? Good condition car etc?

Is there anyone else in the Brisbane/Gold Coast/Sunny Coast area that is worth going to? or is there anywhere that you wouldn't touch with a ten foot pole?

Thanks

I think AJM is dodgey as, I went there looked at a couple of cars before I bought my 32.

When I was there I asked if I could take this car for a test drive, the guy said no, the battery is flat.. but then I said, okay can you start it up for me, and he was glad to do it so that was bullshit. The service wasnt very good, took him about 20 minutes to come outside the little office.

The place I got my 32 from is really really good. It is in Helensvale and he only imports good quality cars, like no dodgy shit and all in imaculate condition. It is on Millaroo Dr past westfield. His name is Tony and his number is 0416 226 631. Take exit 62 going south on M1 and Millaroo Dr s 2nd on the left. He fixed a few things on my car with no hesitation. paid for new coils etc.

ciao

:blush:

for imports see either Mark at import auto centre for above average cars or for the best quality imports and service you cant go past motorman imports Paul's a champ.. prices might be high but you pay for what you get !.. bought 6 cars off them id go again :) ... so much so they bought my 35 in from japland i didnt even test drive it i bought it straight away ..

Got my 260RS from Mick Martin, SVI. I would deal with SVI again no question. Patience pays.

Cheers & good hunting.

Yer the gunmetal one is real nice. Couldn't agree more about motorman. I'm always there annoying them there but he doesn't have any GTRs at the moment :O Any bad rumours about Autoshop in Moorooka? The guys there seem fairly helpful and the cars are decent.

Edit: Thanks for the tip on IAC they have 2 GTRs there :O I'll go have a look tomorrow

Go see Paul and the guys at Motormans dude great service and know what they are doing. i tried ajm before i bought mine from motormans and they dont know shit. cars are shit condition guy has not got a clue what he is talking about half the time.

I went to see the AJM cars today and they were shite condition and the guy talked some shite. Unbelievable lol. Went to see Motorman but they didnt have any 32 GTRs for sale :) IAC was an alright yard, Mark was good and new what he was talking about. Had a nice GTR there but couldn't give me a decent price for the change over. Made the last stop at Autoshop in Moorooka and the GTR they had was really nice. Going back on Monday to take it for a drive n stuff :) Thanks for all the replies really helpful :worship:

If you want a decent GTR, then import one to your specs through SVI. Mick Martin has been doing this since the beginning of Grey Imports and his business is very good.

I bought my 34 GTT from Import Auto Centre almost 2 years ago. Big thumbs up for Mark.

However, i was not impressed with the salesman i initially dealt with. He tried to tell me that this one 34 Sedan GT was turbo that they had in their yard, even though i knew it clearly wasn't. I asked him where the turbo was and he pointed to the air intake :S They did however have a GTT that had just arrived in Aust, and then he told me an unrealistic timeline for my 34 GTT to get compliance completed, as i had put the deposit on mine before it hit the sales floor. I rang Mark and spoke to him and he provided me with a loan car for the extra week that i was left waiting for my 34 and was very apologetic and helpful.

I couldn't be happier with the condition that my 34 is in...

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
