I bought my V35 direct from an importer called Auto Japan in Maddington in WA.

The owner Fauzer was open and honest, and was only happy to help. He provided me with the import papers and Jap de-reg papers on request.

got mine off the showroom of nagoya motors caringbah, very good condition,

although the gloss and shine did deceive some very small cosmetic inconsistencies (can't call it damage since it's minor)

maybe in several years i can afford to go back and trade my 09 v36 for a later 13/14 v36

Don't want to go too off-topic but just a quick one.. Looking at grabbing a car from a dealer in Japan in the very near future.. So is the process basically the same as the auction process through an agent ?

Just tell them who you want to buy from and which car then de-reg, put it on a boat and ship it over? (Simplified of course ahah)

Power Road Car Sales, Dandenong.

Sorted out everything to drive away including registering the car for you.

Also can recommend Carzon.com.au they installed alarm and GPS tracking system for peace of mind security.

Good , Clean , Stock Vehicle's.

Thanks for the mention, I'm sure you'll love the car when it arrives. :) If anyone is interested to see some example auction inspections undertaken in Japan to understand the efforts we go to at auction to ensure we source only the best cars, you can check them out here: http://prestigemotorsport.com.au/inspection-examples/

Wanted to put in a good word for Iron Chef Imports. Been looking to import with the help of Troy since December last year. Had no luck finding a suitable car in my price range (bloody US market exploding). Regardless, he made the searching experience enjoyable and I plan on using them when I buy my next car.

    • I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?
    • That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.
    • ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
    • Sounds pretty awesome. I recommend creating a new build thread and posting all your goodness in there.
