Where did you found them ? where are they based in Australia ?

FOUND THEM DOING A RANDOM SERACH ON GOOGLE

I EMAILED THEM AND I FIND TO FIND OUT MORE

YOU HAVE TO PAY 20% DEPOSIT FOR A CAR YOU WANT TO BUY, THEY ADVERTISE THE CARS ON THEIR WEBSITE

BUT THE WEIRD THING IS THAT THE CARS THEY ADVERTISE ON THEIR SITE THEY DONT HAVE, ITS ALL THROUGH AUCTION??

AND IF YOU CHANGE YOUR MIND AND DONT THEM TO LOOK YOU DONT GET YOUR DEPOSIT BACK

HMMMMMM

They look legit to me. Looks like a private import who has just started a site up but not having an ABN and only a mobile phone number wont given anyone much confidence in them. Its a bit strange that they dont have an ABN, they definitely need one by law.

They do have an ABN:

ABN: 46 372 838 328

Entity name:

BUTROS, MENA

Trading name:

Osaka Performance Imports

All that is a personal ABN you get if you want a second job, until they comply with the fair trading laws and Motor Dealers Regulation 2004 in NSW they are not able to Broker cars as per stated else were or below.

And as you can see below Brokering a car from Japan isn't excluded in NSW.

I vouch for the owner of the company and although the company is new it stands by their customers im sure Mena would be more than happy to answer any questions in regards to any of his stock as his helped me in the past with items ive purchased in the past. Please leave speculations aside until you have dealt with the shop there is no point putting opinions forward unless you have had experience for better or worse

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
