Anybody ever dealt with TVH Autoteile? In Germany.

I can basically import a set of PSS9's from there direct for around $1200, landed, for a set, so just want to know if anybody has already tried importing it.

I can also get it from UK, for around $1350 landed. Anybody tried getting suspension components via UK? Same price as BC's - too tempting.

Both avenues much cheaper then the local quoted costs, which were around 2K.

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Euro 99 shipping to Oz

Cost = Euro 843 + shipping

Total - just under AU$1200.

I think the price is great too - and as far as I can tell I can't see anything dodgy about the deal.

UK guys quoted me AU$1350 shipped.

that is a good price!

have you got a link to the UK store that sells them?

Why the UK store - its 200+ bucks more expensive then direct from Deutschland.

Try them both - ze Germans had some issue with the Australian orders, couldn't select the shipping on-line, but now after I sent them email its all fixed up.

German site: TVH

UK site: Kamracing

Just placed the order with ze Germans - hopefully it all goes smoothly.

Wow. That's SO much better than the local options. If you go for a set and get them, let us know how you go :)

LOL - yeah, that's what I'm also thinking - I'll be the guinea pig - if they arrive we can all go sick :cheers:

Well don't be too sad - I haven't received nothing yet, lets see how this experiment goes LOL

Placed an order this morning then 12 hrs later the TVH Autoteile sales agent got back to me asking for the exact car brand, model, date of manufacture, capacity, kw etc etc - then after they re-checked my order details (part number) against the car model they advised me that's its all correct and then they sent me their paypal details and I just paid them - $1222.

With PSS9's you have to re-use your existing ones.

Anybody knows where to get some spare ones from? Wreckers maybe? Are they a common fit or just gt-r specific?

      Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By MBS206 · Posted

      You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.

      Could it really happen......

      I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
