try this dude

http://www.jappartsspecialist.com

i just order my S15 power fc brand new around 1000AUD

and i just search the price from here, they do have the similar price like negun and jappartspecialist, but seems japparts sells lots of stuff in ebay and the feedback are excellent...

anyway just my personal suggestions, since i already brough a few things from them.

Lachlan, I have dealt with both, but only purchased from Greenline.

Greenline have to get parts from the manufacturer, and if they are available, they are pretty quick, ie 1 week. the longest Ihave had to wait is 3 weeks. you can ask about availability when you e-mail them.

Greenline were very helpful with product information, and even researched parts without my asking - point in note, I asked for a price for a Trust type R BOV, and they new I had a GTSt, they e-mailed back with the cost but also a warning that the bov is for GTR. I found them very helpful, good presales and aftersales service.

Nengun, I wanted some info on second hand parts. He took some time replying to my e-mail, but didnt answer all my questions (about power fc pro), so I resent. He could not answer my questions, nor direct me to where I could find out info on the product, his replies were very short and what I consider abrupt. He gave me the impression that he didnt have much time to spend with customer service. so I have been spending my money elsewhere.

Just my experiences, and the opinions expressed are my own. I know some people have had good results with Nengun, and I am sure if you knew what you wanted and just order from him, the whole process would be alot quicker and easier than if you require product info.

Just gotta throw in here, have a look at www.fvej.co.jp (or www.fvej.com) there is an expat aussie working for them, he has got me the best deal on second hand parts EVER, 40mm HKS wastegate second hand in near new condition for $290 delivered is one example. Definately worth a try - he doesnt get bargains all the time, but he has second hand (and new) suppliers all over Japan, and does do some killer deals - did I ever tell you how much my new HKS 3037 turbo was from him?

Thanks all.

Enrico, nothing specific just yet.

Steve, thanks for the info, and I pretty much agree with what you said re knowledge and service. Thanks for the other link and yes, Greg did tell me how much you paid and it was sweet FA!

Anyone else with any experiences with both these suppliers?

I emailed both Greenline and Nengun on the same day for quotes on the same part. Greenline responded within a couple of hours so I deposited the money and they shipped my order straight away.

I only received an email response from Nengun on the day my parts arrived from Greenline, that being about 2 weeks. Jason was really helpful so I'd recommend them :P

    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo   
    • Very hard to make out what you mean, is it the squarish hole with redline shockproof (probably) under it? Is that pic from on top of the engine with the firewall to the left of pic and engine to the right? Either way, spray the area liberally with degreaser and try again, maybe circle the part you are worried about
