hey all,

Does anyone have any idea on the status of CJP? I bought a car (50% deposit anyway) off them in Dec last year. Well i was overseas, so a good friend of mine did it for me. I have since them bought numerous other goodies that will get shipped with the car in August this year. However, i have heard some conflicting stories about them. Have i f*cked up? Any ideas/info on my situation? Can anyone relate? Thanks

Hope this helps...

Business closed start of the year. They left a note stating they would close and would reopen upon returning from hollidays(international students). They didnt return. Adding to this, there were alot of 'letter of demands' posted on the doors.

If you are genuine about your loss, let me know. I can put you onto the people who know a couple of them.

Best of luck.

yeah that would be good. I had kept in contact with them. I know that Andy went to Japan. I think he is in the US or something now. Havent heard from him in awhile and he hasnt responded to emails, although i only wrote it last week.

yes i know alot about this i also been f. with them ive gone to the police about parts of mine was left ther tobe sold and i never got any money for it and i do belive the police are now after them and alot of other people aswell so beware of CJP there doomed for the worse the the people of australia

Is this even a serious post? You mentioned u bought a 180sx in the beginning with a full payment of over $12,000. Now its a GTR. And even if it was a GTR as appose to a 180sx, you are taking it pretty relaxed for someone who will never see that sum of money again. And I assure you, they arent returning.

i heard that they all got sent back to china or wherever they came from because they are international students. as u might know u are not allowed to open a business if u are not a permanent resident of Aus. apparently they got sent back within 24hrs of them being found out. ive heard from many ppl that they are not replying to emails and havent returned any deposits either.

i think it would be hard getting to them...all the best to those whom are still waiting for their goods

Seriously why would you give people like this a depost?

Have you seen their website (www.cityjapparts.com), all the spelling mistakes throughout the site, oh btw the site has not been updated since 25/2/2004... they are well gone.

Oh one of my Supra's was owned by a friend of these guys, he sold it just before leaving to go back to China... this was in about October last year... he said he was not returning so yeah.

N/A: I never said it was a 180sx. It has always been a GTR. I have no idea where you got 180sx from. And as for full payment, i did mention 50% deposit and not full payment. Also, I am not that relaxed as it appears.

Drift Spec: I paid the deposit in December so that was before their final update.

u got pumped by these pricks you poor bastard, I spoke to a cop friend of mine, these dudes are long gone, they set up in oz take all the deposits and jet back OS, there is nothing you can do as international laws for this type of fraud dont exist.

good luck though, I hate scum like the ones that have done you over.

Hi,

I also once put a deposit on some parts from CJP and they really took there time to try and organise it they promised the R32 coilovers to me in 2 weeks after waiting about 2 months and several phone calls asking for my goods with no progress i went in there and demanded my money back which also took them a couple of weeks to organise but i ended up getting my money minus 10% for there so called trouble.

good luck i hope you either get your goods or your car and stock.

yeah been to their shop last year, very unfriendly, very bare workshop. Not professional. I wanted to get an Evo turbo from them, they showed me a pic of one and I ask them to confirm it is an Evo turbo, they said yes, then I said how come it has the part number of a Galant turbo instead? then they just insist it's the right one.

So dodgy. I never went back. Lucky I have found myself a genuine supplier and now I sell the cheapest Evo turbos around. :)

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
