I was shown this site by my friend at work. He said that he's going to import from them right now. From what I can see the site is cool, easy to find the car you want, and has very nice large pictures for each one. I reckon the site is heaps better than anything I've seen.

It seems as though around Wednesday is when most of the auction cars are in, there is even an R34 GTR M-Spec available at the moment - hot!

There is heaps more cars to check out, I sometimes lose track of time.

I like Meisei's approach to searching and higher image qualities - especially for the auction cars.

Having access to better and higher resolution images means I can make a better call on getting a car that I want.

And the cost calculator is very comprehensive, it has all costs right there for one to look at - it's impressive.

It is all about the person in Japan buying the car,

If you are going through all the trouble you want the person who buys the car to inspect it in person or through a contact.

They need to read japanese for the auction report but not to buy it just off that info as some people do.

Those high resolution images are just the better ones off past auctions or from www.japanautodirect.com have a look at www.j-spec.com.au and you will see what I mean with auction photos.

It is like everything in life you pay for what you get, so do the research, talk to the Raws workshops in your area ask for anybody they can recomend to buy cars for them. They comply the cars so they know who buy's the good cars and who buys the shitters.

The membership fee is the same as paying J-Spec the brokerage fee so it is the same thing different name,

One last thing the current exchange rate is .76 cents and their converter dosent go that low so it will cost more.

Look at Performance Forums where J-Spec sponsors and lists some cars, just do your research, Saying what they want to do is different to what we do.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
