Only the series 2 manual and the 260RS

I picked up a set the other day with air-cond and stereo for 6000yen :thumbsup:

Are you using Slidewise for all this stuff Darrin? How is it all working out?

That is a stupid price BTW!

Cheers

Luke

I only used slidewize once to get my R34 GTR front bar

Had to come by container and was a 4 month wait

Also when you use the container method you get hit with duty and gst, even thuo the product is under $1000

So that is a bit of a trap, along with the bidding is not live, so you have set a price a few days before, which is not the best way to win auctions.

I use www.rinkya.com

Their fees work out to about the same as everyone else, but the best thing is the bidding is live.

I have beeen using them for over 3 years now with over 50 items bought and delivered with not one problem

They do have restrictions on what can be bought and shipped, so make sure you read their site well and understand the rules

Basically big items that exceed EMS shipping sizes and weights you can not buy, like body kits, seats, engines etc

I bought my R34 GTR wheels thru them, got them shipped sea freight, payed $900 for the wheels and the total was under $1600 landed (payed no duty or GST) and had them in 4 weeks

You can also purchase a few itmes over a few weeks and then ship all together to save on shipping

They will stall items upto 2 months. I have 4 items waiting to be sent now.

Also, new items are not worth buying, because you pay fees on top of the purchase price and a 25% shipping fee, so use greenline or nengun

And cheap items you can get here are not worth bidding on either by the time you pay the fees.

It is really good for items you can not just get here, like those gauges at any price.

I have used this company once www.fromjapan.co.jp/en just to try them out

Fees work out approx the same and had no problems

Now I have let my secect out, don't bid against me :thumbsup:

    • 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...
