I can't vouch for the service, but while I was looking for my GTV, I went into the yard at Nagoya ( and workshop ) and had a "GOOD" look around with Alex's counterpart ( Alex was out ) and all I can say is..... :thumbsup:

And since I'm not allowed to say anything bad about anyone on a public forum, re-arange the followng words to create the correct sentance: back. odo's All blatently wound were cars :banana:

Well maybe he's cleaned up his act since I was there. Sure sounds like it from what you guys are saying.

When I was there I saw cars with rust, oil leaks, faded paint, faded interiors, repaired accident damage etc etc showing 64,000km. :(

One of the car's that I saw that day ( in that condition ) was purchased by someone on this forum. He had owned it for about 2 months when I next saw it, and it was all patched up and buffed up then, but it was easy to spot the issues since I knew where and what they were.

I guess at the end of the day, let the buyer beware ( no matter who you buy from ) :)

before u go praising them. u might want to wait til you have owned the car for a bit longer then a day. cute little suprises take time to show themself lol. not saying this is the case for you. but i know many people who were full of praises for a certain turbo distributor on this forum, only to be damning the bloke few months later.

nontheless looks clean, and congratz with the buy :P

i had a look at alex's shop aswell about 6 moths ago,,,, i decided not to get a car from him only coz i found a better car for a slightly cheaper price from joel in castle hill....... also i dont care what anyone says.....EVERY 2ND HAND JAP IMPORT HAS ITS ODOMETERS WOUND BACKWARDS!!!!! don't you wonder how a car with 66k KM has a brand new steering wheel, perfect seats, usually a replaced gear knob, yet the window buttons are always worn or the carpet on the door next to the arm rest has seen better days lol.....you cant avoid it so if it sounds good and looks straight and goes hard... thats all you can hope for.....

also my r33 was picked up with 66k Km on the dial..... for christ sake its a 96 model, 12 years old, that means 5,500km per year..... no way... japs that own their own car drive asmuch as we do over here in the cities and in 6 months im up to 75k KM already..... also the original owner wasted money on a full titanium 3.5 inch fujitsubo exhaust, rims, genuwine gtr front bar, expensive air filter and an expensive "but useless in australia soundsytem" but he only drove the car 66k in 12 years...... at the time i was looking for a new car, every dealer i saw had dodgey k's on them... all i could do was pick the best at the time and still to date no probs except a clutch upgrade....

thank god there such good cars

    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
