carizma Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 Hey JetBlack, for what its worth we at Carizma are a LMCT who have been in business 12 years, but we believe our biggest advantage is we have our on Compliance workshop and have a stock of standard parts if you do buy a modified car, Regards Paul @ Carizma Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/286953-carizma-or-j-spec/#findComment-4813935 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 I believe you wouldnt go wrong with these 2. Call them both up and have a chat, see which makes you more comfortable. Have you search locally? Unless you're looking for something very specific or rare, maybe you want to see whats available locally before venturing out. Although you might get lucky with the current exchange rate and get something decent for a few grands cheaper.

Charles89 Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 I bought my old R33 with J-Spec, Craig was really patient and friendly. Had no problem at all, if I didn't find my R34 here, I would have used J-Spec again to look for one in Japan Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/286953-carizma-or-j-spec/#findComment-4815311 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, patience is one of the most important thing when it comes to buying a car, especially importing. Because there are always better cars coming up Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/286953-carizma-or-j-spec/#findComment-4815396 Share on other sites More sharing options...
(OO)SKYLINE(OO) Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Bought my car though Carizma back in 2005, cuz at that time, they were the only ppl willing to take my other car for a trade in which helped out.

HairyMerkin Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 I bought a '98 Silver R34 non-turbo from Carizma on the weekend. It's in absolutely brilliant condition, even had the flare!
