dennis is a top bloke & tells you like it is. i know he doesnt buy from the auctions he has a guy in japan who checks out the cars locally and when the cars arrive he gets the front bars etc sprayed and detailed looking neat.

He is abit pricey but seems to have the goods, i nearly bought a gtr off him but it sold on the way there and it had to be the cleanest gtr i have ever seen.

I am yet to find another one (its been 2months now) in midnight purple ..such a hard color to find a r33 in !

all the best with the r34

bought both my 33 and 34 from dennis, top bloke, never had issues with either. both motors were modded and handled it prefectly. never had an issue. also hes always a great help if i was searching for replacement parts and odds and ends.

i bought my r33 gtst off Japcars. they seemed like good honest blokes, the car was stock but very very clean, it spoke for itself.

+1 on a bit pricey, but they did throw in my 100k service for free, and it's worth paying extra (compared to some of the other examples i had seen)

ps. what mustang do you have?

these guys are very good. my r32 gtst came from there. was one of the cleanest 32s i've ever come across. most of their cars that i have seen there are totally clean! good luck on the purchase

i bought my r34 from him and he was very good, it came with a couple mods on it which were great plus he changed the coilpacks with ones called supersparks because the originals were beggining to missfire. but unfortunatly these failed last month for some reason so i have splitfires now.

great guy id deal with him again in the future.

*raise hand* oh oh oh. I TOTALLY have the most recent experience.

My R33 Series 3 GT-R was bought from Dennis and the boys at JapCars. Had a minor incident with the AFM, and i stress, very minor, but they took care of it for me without a hassle the moment i brought it back in.

Personally i love it there, cars are all clean and quality, service is always friendly - both from Dennis and from the mechanics that work there.

Would definitely buy from them again.

      Maybe also really stiffly sprung track cars. Get the inside wheel up in a corner and all the fun stops. Also me sometimes (rarely) when I have to stand on the brake to convince the diff to drive the wheel that is still on the ground when I'm trying to diagonally get over severe driveway entrance, etc.

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By Duncan · Posted

      I feel like I'm missing something. You had an authorised installer come out and install a new alarm. Post install the car doesn't start, and you aren't getting the installer back to fix what they did wrong?

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
