Sorry if this has been covered in a thread somewhere - I had a good look, but couldn't ifnd anything. I tell you what - Rezz's photos are cool. I like that thread!

I need to know of shops in Japan that sell car parts. Particularly bolt on performance parts. In case you're wondering, I am after a Greddy Plenum and possibly a whole bolt on kit for an RB25DET.

So yeah, I have no idea how to find these places or contact them, but I reckon some one on here would have some good contacts over there.

All help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Luke

place your order through K's Garage and tell them Troy sent ya :)
Orders recieved heretofore shall be handled by K's Garage c/o the Osaka branch of Mitsubishi Electric Rolling Stock Division... :)

Okay I may be a bit out of touch with some of the lingo going on, but thanks. Can I contact these fellas by email or phone or something? Is that their name - 'K's Garage' ?

And no thanks, I have a complete 3 litre motor, just want a plenum. :)

K's garage is Rezz's business lol he specialises in gettin jap parts n stuff.

If the stuff's too big for rezz to mail out then I can offer a container based shipping once every 2 months. Basically my fee is 20% of the cost of the unit, so your total charge is cost of unit + shipping + 20% of the cost of the unit. I can source the stuff for ya too. That's only if Rezz can't do it coz it is a bit of a hassle and I'd rather him do the hard work :)

Yeah Luke, I got your PM... as per usual it was buried beneath the 300 other ones...

Mate, if you've got a contact in Japan already, wouldn't it be cheaper/easier for them to source the plenum? The whole K's Garage thing is strictly part-time now, and even then only small things like Funky says.

evo lee, whats the engine you have on offer?????

Depends on what you want...all low volume sales.

The shop usually just builds a few or one off performance engines and sell them off...most recently a 2bar S14b SR20 race engine.

Not sure if they have any complete RB engines around at the moment.

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.
