Hi,

hmm.. first post.

Was just wondering if anyone has heard of Ezy Imports on the Gold Coast?

Mate of mine was directed to them after looking at a 32 GTR that sold to somebody else after he looked at it.

http://ezyimports.com

They quoted my mate 5 grand for a manual 32 GTST, with 6 months rego, or 13 grand for a 32 GTR.

their prices seem.. well... I cant imagine how they make money.. theres also no ABN etc on their website. I'm familiar with the importing process a bit, as I imported my current car (Levin BZG) through J-Spec.

Just curious as to whether anybody has heard about them, if its a real business etc.

Thanks, I figured it was to good to be true.

I suppose thats why they are wanting 4 and a half grand up front... so they can run off with it

Where do these businesses keep coming from??? Jeez...

Golden rule - if it sounds too good to be true...

So a quick look into them (don't quote me as was a quick one) shows you have the address of Admin Office Australia 5 Lawson Street , Southport Central Qld 4215 which is a set of units in QLD which is ok but multiple business at the address.

The website is registered in the US, might not mean anything as I am not an IT geek without a life, but they have used a proxy with Melbourne IT to hide their personal information ([email protected]).

Ezy Imports isnt a registered company with ASIC, but Ezy Import was registered out of NSW and had a name change in 2002, they give advice on the stock market.

But as stated before the best is Deposit is then required $4500 (refundable).

You would be amazed how many importers like this are out their.

Pretty funny that this came up, a mate of mine and I found these guys website the other day and came to the same conclusion; that its probably bullshit. But then again if it is true i'll happily sell GTT car for a $16,000 R34 GTR. Does anyone want to take one for the team and phone up? Maybe try for a quote on something...

As I said their are plenty of people advertising cars that are not eligible to be imported let alone the prices they quote, it is called "Bait Advertising". Their is one expert in AUS on his website pricing up S14's, RX7 Series 6's and 7's (not advertised as Race/Rally) along with models that don't and never will meet the SEVS requirement.

"Remarkable" prices aside, they're giving figures for non turbo GTO's, MR-2's, EVO 9's, CRX's and NSX's! All utterly unimportable! (that's a word, trust me :happy: ) .

Ben doesnt have to mean anything as ur J.spec has time to time same cars to be imported into other places as is Australia , but what is more suspicious is prices on all GTR's especially R34 GTR .

Address or location isnt problem as for example Prestige motorsport is same You can get in contact only over the mobil ph, never is personal contact .

But whole Ezy import is looks dodgy in first impression to me ...

put it this way, a client got a 32 GTR for a very cheap price imported (not through these guys so don't jump to conclusions) and upon arrival it had so many problems...when he had it inspected it turns out his GTR was actually made up of 3 cars welded together (front, rear, mid sections).

So I guess you might have a very very slim chance that this is a legit importer, but there being no quote on quality, I would take the prices with a huge bit of caution.

If you're going to import a car which is usually sight unseen (with your own eyes) then you have to at least trust the people who say they've inspected it and given it the all clear. Paying a bit more for peace of mind is worth it.

hilarious. I found a few places like this while searching for my car initially, and for about 5 mins thought i could get a nice 32 GTR for under 18k.....

the GTR i found was on carpoint for $13000, said it was cheap cause last buyer fell thru and had to be gone fast aparently.

I emailed him, and all i got back was a "sorry its sold, but check this website out www.xxxxx.com"

and it was a direct link to the same sorta site, offering every type of import for under 20 grand, all grade 4 cars, blah blah blah.

always too good to be true

      You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.

      By cosline · Posted

      Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik

      Spotted on the street....

      By Rezz · Posted

      Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
