top quality cars top quality price

i haven't heard anything else so if your gut it ok then go for it

don't bother with the 3 yr extended warranty 95% of what could go wrong with the car isn't covered it should take about $900 off the cost

about 7 years ago there werent very good stories but from what i have heard over the past few years has been really good reps as long as the car checks out with a mechanic then go for it but i agree with steve dont get the warranty there is no point and it will save you a few $$$$

People say that they have heard bad stories from Redline. But my R32 was sold by them back in 2002, and Vince from Import Compliance Systems has been over it and said its one of the the best GTSt's he has seen to date... Would I buy a car from Redline? Yes.

Ok, first of all the topic title "Dealer" is just stupid - you need to make the title state exactly what the topic is about, and what you want to ask.

Secondly this has been covered 1,000,000 times before .... ALWAYS use the search function.

Thirdly, the guys selling at Redline have always struck me as arrogant fools, and the cars are stupidly overpriced IMHO.

That is all.

What are peoples impression for Redline Motorsports?

I'm looking at buying a car from them tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!

What car you after exactly? Id trowl through car sales and call a few that you like (interstate also), always ask the relevant questions ie service history, auction papers, export certificates etc

If you have a good feeling then organise an inspection through a mechanic, RAA or state roads depending on where the car is located. All goes well, seriously think about purchasing.

Paid top price for my 33 through them.

Had to go back twice for majour warranty repairs, both times the repairer tried to sell me on extras and both times the repairs were not carried out to satisfaction.

That being said they gave me a lot more for my trade-in than I was expecting, and the guys provided great pre-sales service and reasonable after-sales, car was presented very well and I suspect it had a cheapo respray after landing here which is now starting to flake in some spots, although I can't say for sure that was thanks to Redline.

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
