hi all

i'm new new here but i did own a skyline a few years back, now mr familys looking to import a delica

with 4 kids i'm on a budget, the old pajero nf has had her day, been in contact with several aussies working for or running auction agent businesses inc lachlan from http://www.autotraderimports.com/auction and phil cathcart http://www.directimported.com.au/about-dir...uto-brokers.php

try this site, awesome for historical auction price data mining but you only get 7 days http://jpctrade.com/

i reckon i can manage sorting the customs bit, (friend is a customs agent), so that leaves the big one, finding a reputable RAW - my inner skeptic says thats one without a car yard attached.

ive sussed raws.com.au . there are a couple mobility@hornsby, top gear@darra qld

i realise the regular brokers - performance, kieran iron chef, j-spec, (nice site), 101, to name just some of the better ones, probably want to keep this stuff up their sleeve, however, if youve done a diy import, and had a positive compliance experience would you please respond with a post or a pm (not sure if i can get pms as this is my first post...?)

perhaps even if youve had a poor experience postit so i can omit them

thanks in advance

adrian

ps great site, will be letting the crustys at delica.com know you guys have got your import s..t together

pps yes - not all raws will have the evidence packages for delicas, but its a start, i appreciate your advice

not trying to ramp...

had another conversation with andrew at tgvi (who are also owned by bruce gearing who owns raws.com.au, well known & respected), gotta say, very upfront & pleasant, understood my reluctance to have vehicle complied 1000km away, however would really like opinions of members here who've had compliance done there http://www.tgvi.com.au/ please! esp as they can comply the latest vehicles - delica & others

also spoke at length with peter janos of pjs @ riverwood, although he can only comply delicas up march 04 (really the 03 model), this guy rocks, didnt check if he does skyline, but a very pleasant man to deal with full of practical advice http://www.japcars.com.au/

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      S15 Spec R

      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!
