I used Prestige Motorsport for my Series II and would use them again for sure. Geoff is happy to answer questions and I had a lot of them and everything happened as he said he would.

Contact Geoff and have a chat (email is best).

Good Luck

Errr, I know its my own opinion.............. but I went through JSpec over all other importers including the one aformentioned here..... Extremely happy with their service and have not looked back

But yeah, I went through the same predicament when I was looking for a broker too....... and i believe this topic has been covered before. NEvertheless, I can only speak from personal experience, and I was glad that I went with those guys.

Good luck!

when i look at the stock list for prestige their eiter got riped seats, accident cars, dints, scratches ?

whats the go their ?

how did you guys get good cars ?

I asked prestige about an r32 gtr, he added me to the list, i was then receiving an email everyday with about 20 gtr's for sale... What you see on the site isnt all of them..

What you see on the site is pretty much whats left over and not picked up by those on the "buyers" mailing list... basically, he finds cars, emails interested buyers (you pay $1100 for this), if none of those buyers buy it, it goes to the list.

yeh, the reason i'm thinkin seriously bout goin through Phil ( direct imported ) is because i know phil n his family . Phil comes from my town n my dad knows is parents rather well so yeh not sure but i hear lots of good things from prestige i'll hav to think bout it ..

If you want hassle free importing, use UPI Imports

Dean runs that.

www.upimports.com.au

I imported my old R32 GTR , anytime of the day/night he was always happy to answer any questions, even after owning the car for 6months, i prompted him for assistance once night i busted something, and he was happy to help.

He's a very easy guy to deal with, and he knows how to pick a mad car!!!

You'll find alot of other importers who just want their $1000 fee and they don't care if you import a dodgy sh!tbox,

Dean recommends only decent cars and has fantastic contacts in Japan, you'll definately know the quality of the car is exactly what dean tells you!

Haven't found 1 thing bad to say about him.

Give him a call, he'll answer any of your questions, 0411 691 744

I will be importing next car through him in a few months time.

Above is my opinion, though im sure many others will agree!

Ok well I have to be very easy on what I can say here as I have a conflict of interest.

Under the new system a RAW can only bring in and comply ar car. Make sure who ever you get you'r car imported from IS A RAW.

I work for SVi. Special Vehicle Imports in QLD. We would be happy to help any Members from this forum.

My name is Zac so if you want to call just ask for me tell me you are from this forum and I will be glad to help a member.

If you want to call me anytime at work our number is 3865 8999.

Well, anyone (including brokers like Prestige) can arrange and import the car for you, no matter who you import thru you will have to go to a complier like SVI or similar to get the car on the road.

    • I don’t really have any ideas how to set the timing on the CAS 😂, sounds like the top, sounds like it maybe misfiring as well as ticking,  got the box sorted 😌, must of been a air bubble on the clutch side
    • Use a 2' length of hose (that's 2 foot, not 2 inches) as a stethoscope to localise the source of the ticking. From cam covers? From exhaust or turbo manifold gasket? From injectors? From lower down in the engine? Etc. Use a timing light to set the timing. Put Redline Lightweight Shockproof in the box. It's not the very best thing for the box, but it will take a box that refuses to engage a gear with other oil, and make it engage a gear. I had to put it in when I installed the R33 box I have in my car. It would not select ANY gear when running. Smurf jizz made it work. That was >10 years ago and I still use it. I'm stuck with it now. Failing that - rebuild the box.
    • Well done Duncan. The fuel tank bulkhead lid is also in great condition (some of mine were stuffed). These are now out of production and good ones like that are becoming hard to come by.
    • Wow that's a steal, you've done well there.
