Where to buy parts in Brisbane

[NIZ30]

I am new to Brisbane and wanting to know where is good places to buy parts for my skyline. Preferably somewhere on the northside.

Right now I am specificly looking for a top radiator hose. My local Supercheap was of no use. But I want other things too like genuine skyline floormats. Went to one import wrecker and all they had was engines/gearboxes, not the little things.

Went to a place that does compliancing. The workshop and yard was nose to tail import cars, looked like the pictures you see of the Jap auctions. They did not have any wrecked skylines. But an awsome supra and evo6 parked out front.

i was talking to someone the other day and mentioned tokyo toys cos nismo bitch never shuts up about them.

They were telling me they were super dodgy or something.. but for the life of me I cant remember who it was...

In the same conversation, I think they reffered me to sub zero.. so that could explain it.

will check out tokyo toys, see what they got.

went into a shop today, Drift King Motorsport (i think it is called something else, but they have a big sign with this on it) in aspley, cause they had a heep of nice looking rims in the window. They sounded very helpful, and am likely to get my gearbox fixed there.

See MR-GTR (Steve). When he's not overseas picking up cars and parts, he's on the GC - I'm getting my next car through him in a year or two.

Go to www.mr-gtr.com - the site is still being put together but it has his contact details on it.

NIZ30 It's Team Drift King Motorsport at Aspley which is part of Superior Tyres. I've got a few things done through them and know the owner pretty well, you shouldn't have any problems with him..

I take it you drive a white R32, I may have seen you before.. I drive a grey R32 around northside.. number plates 002 NVS..

What's wrong with your gearbox..?

Hey,

I spoke to a guy from Cresta and he was really helpful, althoug overpriced and he gave me a list of people to try..

A few on the coast, melbourne, sydney..

Maybe try asking for something else that u know they don't have n ask if he can give u the numbers of some other places.???

Ok its all good....

A good mate of mine has a source and is doing my complete conversion for me at a really good price....

Cannot say until job is complete though...

As i dont want to be half way through the job and

the price to be pushed up due to demand...

I has happened to me before...

IE. I made contacts with Asian Auto Spares and they said that

I cant get an R32 front cut for $1600 as they had a few and we

wanting to get rid of a couple... So i made a post and by the time

I went down to buy mine three had allready sold and they would

not do the 1600 price for me... Then i had many angry people

wanting to know why i said they could get one for 1600...

See what i mean...

[Guest neoGT-25]

Can i please ask a question... why is everyone pissed off or whatever at sub zero proformance?

sorrie im new so i dont know...

[Guest nismogtsx]

Well i will say why i dont like them but i cant speak for everyone..

I went to the Auto-salon in Brisbane... Ok they had a stand...

I waited and waited to speak with one of their guys about some customized stuff... The guy behind the counter was a lebo and the guy he was talking too was a lebo (im not racist btw) but anyway... They were not talking about cars at all. They went on and on about some shit and finally when i got to ask my question he walked away and said come back in 5 minutes i need a drink... So i waited and when he came back he fart assed around before coming over to the counter... Then once he approched the counter he sopke and i said i need a price of this and this, roughly, and he replyed " Im not talking to you " and i looked over my sholder and there was another lebo behind me... And all he was interested in was serving his own kind... Thats so f!@#ing rude and i wanted to pull him over the counter and start war... Instead i started yelling and swearing and i got excorted to the side by security and that was it.. I cooled down and forgot about it... I refuse to call them, I will never go there, they make me want to sell my car and buy a Datto 120y....

I will never recomend them to anyone cause he was the one who was racist and didnt want my money... Their too busy looking after their own kind and their own shitty cars...

If i had 50g's to spend on an R33, im sure i could pull sub 10 seconds easy....

My mates cordia runs 12.1's and he has spent less than 7 grand... Total and thats including the car... LOL

[Guest neoGT-25]

oh i see, well they are rude! you should have given the guy a bitch slap :slap:

[Guest nismogtsx]

I would have but security took me aside and the security was an Aussie just doing his job and he was surposed to kick me out.. But instead he let me explain and his works were " f#@king lebo's" and i just laughed. He told me to steer clear of the stand and so I did and found a better performance shop in the meen time anyway... Thats local too....
