Hi guys,

Anyone who has bought cars from them before could you please share some experience? How has your car been running so far? Are you happy with their service especially after sale service? Any feedback is welcome

Thanks

1st post asking about a shop and if any one has been ripped off by them.

Reason being?

If your looking for feedback on good experiences with Importers there is a thread.

Most don't post openly bad experiences re shops due to libel / defamation laws.

You may get some Private Messages (PM's) tho.

Edit: a quick search on "sports auto group" will come up with results :thumbsup:

^^ as stated Qisong.

If you wish to broaden your spectrum of research, besides the thread "If You're Happy With Your Import, Who Brought It In?", consider this...

that Sports Auto Group has been affiliated with AllImports (now renamed) and Motor Point

I impulse bought my 32 from them when my brother went in to look at a rex.

Paid overs for it but no complaints about the car, didn't have any hidden issues they would have known about and their service at the time of sale was great.

Bit disappointed that they sold me a 3 year warranty with the car claiming that it would be covered only to find out it doesn't cover a vehicle with aftermarket modifications when am arm snapped and shattered the clutch and flywheel. Not sure if they just didn't know it wouldn't be covered or wanted to make some extra coin.

Also don't expect much help from them once you have paid for and taken the vehicle.

That said I have had worse experiences with private sales

Looks spammy, especially listing the address as thread title... this is not the first time I've seen a random newbie post like this...

I got my car from them. If I could go back in time I would re consider giving them my money. The car is in really good shape, suprisignly genuine kms. But there customer service isnt great, I had a few problems that didnt cost me too much but were just shitty to have happen to me two days after buying the car. Just do your reasearch on the car you are looking at. Get it checked out by a mechanic and do all the nesecary paperwork checks.

I said I was one of their customers I am happy with the car but extremely unhappy with their service. This is the experience I had with them I am just trying to see if they treat all the customers the same or is it just me.

Thing is I want to see the car before I purchase it. I have had issues before with importing cars through a broker. I have no doubt that Iron Chef is good, its just there are some things that are out of his control.

I purchased an elgrand through a broker and in the process of it arriving one of the remotes got stolen from the port. It only had one key. Issues like that is why i wouldnt do it again. Would prefer to find one here and know its got all that.

      S15 Spec R

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
