Yeah , i think that happened to me too.. best option i found was to call them... contact details are on there website i think

http://www.ironchefimports.com/site/

(not affiliated with them at all, so I am not trying to get a sale)

Good luck

powervehicles.com is run by english couple Andy and his misso (think thats their names I'm hopeless with names) and run the drift camps at Ebisu circuit.

They are top people and have very good contacts and have a strong association with the Team Orange drift performance team. They help a lot of people going to Japan to buy cars for the drift matsuri's and do a lot of imports and get some shit hot cars.

I'd personally have no issues using them for sending or sourcing a special vehicle and I am in no way affiliated with them.

Met them a couple of times and was impressed with their set up at Ebisu.

Yeah it's Andy and his partner Emily, and they are Scottish... (like me)

I was over in Japan a few years back and met them at Ebisu. Really nice couple and they do have a shit load of nice cars. They helped one of my mates who I was traveling with at the time buy a monster FC RX-7 so I'm pretty sure they would be more than helpful in sourcing a car for you.

how much roughly would it be to land her a R32 GTR. doesnt have to be perfect paint or interior.

Can have some fruit would be nice.

No HUGE amounts of rust.

Will be tracked only.

Just a rough guide would be good

If you want to know rough prices for parts/cars using an english translated site of yahoo jp, i find importmonster.com.au is good to search with

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
