See Sammy at Japlink, he is a good guy and will look after you. They comply their own cars and only buy good quality cars in Japan to sell thru their yard. They have their RAWS good name to look after so wont sell you shit.

G'Day,

I bought my 32 GTST from them, they are generally great to deal with and only sell quality cars (as above). Have had no problems with my car to date, bought it around 6 months ago. They did me a good deal too. They are definately worth a look.

My car was originally from Japlink, bought it off a mate who was good friends with Sammy. All the mods and work done to the car was carried out by the guys at Japlink and it was an incredibly tight car. (Don't have it anymore :P ) But yeah the car never had any problems and was in unreal condition. I would assume that all the cars they sell would be of a similar quality. Check em out! If you decide to get a car from there you can be assured it will be of great quality

I think alot of people would recommend you look at private buys as well.. You will find that most dealerships - especially Parramatta Rd have quite a high markup on cars.. e.g. the equivilant R33 to mine - 40th Annv will cost you up to $26,000+ in a dealership, when privately you would be looking at $22,000..

well - it's up to you.. check him out and see what you think - all dealers MUST offer you 3 months warranty, this can be a good thing, personally if there is something overly wrong with your car in the first 3 months i'd be a bit worried..

Anyways - good luck

Who me ?

Gee you are a rude f**k.

He's asking for opinions .. I gave him mine. I've imported several cars (4) myself NOT through an australian broker, but direct from a japanese one.

I have seen some of the quality of cars that come through, in particular through dealers who comply these JUNK themselves. I am only telling him to beware of the market. Everyone knows that. If you disagree with me, sure. But its a free country and both you and I can say what we think

It is a rule that you have to be careful when buying a car full stop.. these guys have nice looking cars but then that's their job, they tend to jack up prices a bit though. In the end, it's all about the service they give you once you've handed over yr money.

    • Hey guys! Y'all are the masters so figured I'd check in on a few items here. - My engine sounds ever-so-slightly more raspy than the other NA RB25s I've listened to. It's barely noticeable but definitely a slightly different sound. - When I back off the throttle at high RPM, I will sometimes get a pop out of the exhaust, assuming this can be diagnosed as misfire. Some history on the car: - Had an exhaust leak in auction sheet but was claimed to be fixed by seller (bought from USA importer).  - Car's coil packs and sparks were replaced when it was sold to me, but unsure on what the gap is and whether the coil packs are correct.  - A prior mechanic had misdiagnosed a pilot or throwout bearing sound as LSPI/detonation. Had played with timing a bit, pops/raspy sound of engine just got worse. Got timing reset. - Had failed emissions a few times. First time went in as is, failed. Second time, replaced cat, still failed, running rich as hell. Third time replaced o2 sensor, passed. Car still smells gassy though. - Timing belt and valve cover gasket also replaced.  - Gas mileage is... low. about 350-400K per tank.  Any idea if I'm having any serious issues here or does this all sound like normal old NA RB stuff and I'm fine to drive it with the pops/slightly raspy engine? If it'll help, I can get drop a video of the sound of the engine.
    • So....to find any R chassis part number, get your VIN (will be something like ER33-xxxxxx for you) and go to: https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan and enter it. From there you have access to a web version of Nissan's part system, FAST. It is a bit tricky to get used to, so maybe have a shot and post up what you think.  You can also search by general model but note in some cases your car might have different options so VIN is safest.  On diagram 211 I got 14075-75T16 for Connector, Water Hose If I search for part 14053‑21U10 that you posted, that is also a water hose but not the one bolted to the plenum and 14075‑04U00 is the fitting where the water hose goes into the block.
    • Yeah now we are talking I much prefer coolers in the front middle because it lessens the chance of a small bump to a corner stopping the whole event. I was thinking the AT cooler can move out of the radiator, delete the AT/engine coolant interwarmer and mount a separate cooler with a thermoswitch somewhere further back as is common in racing, that would be one thing. Beyond that, the engine oil cooler is an obvious one to move to the wheel arch, potentially one on each side, but unused space is an issue. I did have a earlier pic with the bumper off but it doesn't show how busy the corners are: DS is full of the auto driving sensors and PS is totally fully of windscreen washer fluid reservoir But ultimately I was hoping to keep the AC, and the water/air heat exchanger is fundamental so it is not just the radiator that needs to be in front BTW here's airflow to the rad as it ran at the track (one horn is gone now and I'll remove the lights next time):
    • your right the maps for Australia came out in 2017 but are 2010 maps. i got the updated maps SD card put it in and it was the same. Same maps in my Brothers Nissan Patrol. 2020 i think his car is
