unless im doing something wrong this only translates the opening page. the minute you type in r33 for example and hit search it goes back to japenese.

your not doing anything wrong it just aint that helpful ey....there used to be this tool/interface somewhere here with drop down box menu of all parts for all skylines etc......cant find it anymore but it was very helpful.

If you need a link for yahoo auction (specific search e.g bodykits etc)

Just post up what you are after and i like you directly :down:

Jeez, this is a friendly section isn't it?

www.importmonster.com.au for me.

Thanks for the recommendations fellas. If anyone ever needs any help getting around our site or Yahoo Japan, please drop me a line via PM or even better, to support AT importmonster.com.au :D

Also worth mentioning that we can source from the usual array of Japanese shops and new parts suppliers. Just need a link to what you want and we can organise it ;)

Hi.

I have been using www.isicar.com for car auction and yahoo purchases for many years. You can look at cars coming up for auction each day and yahoo is in english. The only thing is you must have money in your account with them before bidding. Have a look they are lovely people to deal with. Have never had an issue with them.

One more thing to consider an Australian buying site cannot buy direct from the japanese seller as most sellers state will not ship overseas so there would be a middleman in Japan buying for the overseas operation- result two fees- Japan and overseas operation. With isibike you only deal with them.

if you copy and paste this in your url box when you are browsing through yahoo japan it will change the site you are looking at to english

dealt with them on a few things. not too bad. they speak english when you call them.

terry, are you in burbank by chance?

Can't seem to get this to work...?

sorry try inserting this one i thought it looked not right

http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=e...ir=ja|en&u=

if you use search in yahoo japan though, dont translate the search results... browse through in japanese and when you find something you like open it in a new page and translate that... i just tried the link above and it worked for me three times... search initially in english once you find what you are looking for find the japanese translation of the word (it comes up if you hover the mouse over the word for a while), cut and paste that in your search field and it will broaden your search

hope this helps

    • Depending on the purpose of the car, and how much more fabbing you want to do, and what clearances you have, you could look to raise the motor, which will raise the front diff up. Likely would mean altering the chassis rails etc etc, hence the more fab work you'd need to do. However, this can create issues, not just in clearance with everything fitting under the bonnet, but you've also raised a LOT of weight up in the car, and this will DEFINITELY alter handling characteristics (But, so will how much weight you've already added to the front end). You'll also have to deal with the fact the gearbox to rear diff is now out of alignment too for the tail shaft, and alter the angle of the diff, or deal with a bit of potential vibration. Raising the motor an inch up, is effectively the same as making the whole car sit higher by not lowering it as far. So one inch higher motor, theoretically means you can drop the car an extra inch lower, and maintain the same angles in the CVs. Again, depends on the purpose of the car. If it's a just cruiser on the street car, maybe won't be an issue. If it's meant to be a time attack car, I can see you not wanting to raise the motor. This is just for you to ponder as an idea.
    • Have you not seen geospy.ai? It can now give GPS co ords to within a metre from a photo, even if it's a random photo you take inside. Supposedly at the moment only the government/law enforcement has access to that... Supposedly...
    • I've got the rear ones, they're certainly beefy. I need to take them to my driveshaft guru to check over, he's very fussy about the quality of components so I'll let you know if they are made of cheese by a blind man.   Are you in Australia? A mate just had a set of EN26 shafts made for his K20 Lotus by our fabricator which were quite cheap (compared to Driveshaft Shop) so if you can procure the CV's and draw what you need he'd make them for ~$800 for the pair.
    • Had I known the diff between R32 and R33 suspension I would have R33 suspension. That ship has sailed so I'm doing my best to replicate a drop spindle without spending $4k on a Billet one.
    • OEM suspension starts to bind as soon as the car gets away from stock height. I locked in the caster and camber before cutting off the kingpin. I then let the upright down in a natural (unbound) state before re-attaching it. Now it moves freely in bump and droop relative to the new ride height. My plan is to add GKTech arms before the car is finished so I can dial camber and caster further. It will be fine. This isn't rocket science. Caster looks good, camber is good, upper arm doesn't cause crazy gain and it is now closer to the stock angle and bump steer checks out. Send it.
