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

Like everyone says Sam is great to deal with i know him personallyvery professional genuine.I bought 2 cars previous to this one from Japlink(300zx's) and they were so helpful. My skyline had 40k on it when i got it and it felt that way i.e no problems mechanicly,no damage,clean interior etc.Im getting caried away..Seriously they are an above average car dealer and i recommend them highly

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.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
