so I Put a few orders in for Amayama and they all show green "ordered from supplier" or "sent from supplier"

The earliest August one was listed as expected delivery 13th Sep by "Fastway Couriers" (it was listed as delivered to warehouse by 12th sep).

so naturally, I'd like to know the status..

- they do not reply to online messages despite the interface for logged in customers.

- they do not pick up the phone it just rings to voice mail or gets cut off

At this point wondering if I just turn up at  24 Norman St, Peakhurst, Sydney, with print out in hand, will they all run and hide behind the shipping supplies?

Yeah I've used Amayama a lot and found them to be good (nothing orders sometimes get cancelled after they check with Nissan). 

International deliveries are a disaster at the moment but Fast Track are local and if they have the package there should be a tracking number available.

Have you heard what's happening with global shipping lately?

yes, that I understand.( however, i get DHL from japan in days.)

what I do not understand is ghosting customers who ask after an order that their own system says they have, and should have been delivered 10 days ago

Dude I have stuff on the way at the moment too from them, same delays. They are usually 10/10, but the shipping at the moment from overseas just is what it is. "Sent by supplier" just means they are waiting for the stock themselves.

You do realise Amayama is not like RHDjapan or Nengun right ?, where they specifically obtain and ship your order independently from other orders. Amayama do bulk stock orders for multiple customers parts overseas, which all get shipped together, then they individually ship it once it's in Australia. Notice you only get tracking within Australia ? That's why. How do you think they keep their shipping prices so low ?

Chill out.

They probably have a huge backlog of calls/emails to get through from customers contacting them cos their order is 4 days late.

Add shipping delays of covud, and huge increase in online orders, with same amount of staff, and...you get this.

Yes, I do realise.

nevertheless a bare minimum of customer service is customer service.

If they don't want phone calls and queries perhaps enter the correct dates into their own customer information system, or spend 1 minute replying to one polite question, instead of ignoring it for a week.

I don't think you do, or else you wouldn't be bringing up DHL from Japan, which has nothing to do with your order with them.

Relax, you'll get your parts mate. ?

Lol have u seen the price of DHL shipping at the moment?? You'd want gold plated triple platinum etc service to charge $90 to deliver a single air filter from jpn to aus ( i didnt proceed with the order). DHL's service has always been amazing but priced thru the roof at present.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
