hi

i have a guy in the middle east which he have a garage and told me that he have lots of skyline parts and mods

i know the guy cuz im from the same country

he told me that he wants to ship the parts and mods to australia as they are very cheap over there which is back in my country

they are cheap because we used to have lots of skylines and other imports which are RHD and getting them from japan and converting the dash to LHD by cutting or by using maxima or blubird dash

before four years the government stoped regestering the imported cars because of the accidents and unsafe cars

so what happened is that lots of car dealers had imported hundreds of skylines and supras and others but didnt know what to do with them

so they are for sale for very cheap prices

the guy which i know told me as im in australia he told me he would part some skylines and ship them to australia if some people are interested

the thing is what are the parts that people look for mostly

till now one garage gave me a list of what he's looking for and he wants to import a container full of parts as turbos and other mods

would like a help so i could know what are the most wanted parts

excuse me for my english as it is my secound language

If they're used parts contact NISSWRECK and see if container loads of whatever can be shipped out here for as little duty as possible.

The people at NISSWRECK can tell you which parts are worthwhile to ship in a shrinking spare parts market.

If they're new parts, and if they're still not being manufactured, contact TOY SHOP, JUST JAP and other advertisers in Performance Imports magazine to see if they're interested.

The process will take time however, because these firms aren't going to just take anything.

Have you thought of doing it yourself?

the guy told me he can get new parts and used parts

Have you thought of doing it yourself? no , cuz its a bit hard for me to deal with these things by my self as i dont have the time to import and sell and i have one year still in australia and then ill go back to my home country

but iv done this favoure to the garage which is back there cuz i used to modify my cars in his garage and he was very friendly

sounds like the stolen cars are returning home in pieces.

didnt understand what do you mean with stolen cars ??

the cars that are in the garage in the UAE are not stolen as they have papers on the cars and some have number plates

its just that the government have stopped regestering the imports as skylines and supras .... ect

and there is no need for these cars to be in the shed without using them so most of the cars are sold for cheap

the guy which i know he is buying them and selling them as a whole car or can strip them and sell the parts

and plus he have new mods as garette turbos and hks and others which are cheap because of the 0% tax

    • H1 is not the Humvee, but is the most road based version. Lachlan (HankScorpio) on here has a proper Humvee. He imported it a few years back.
    • Welcome Thomas! Sounds like you've made some progress. Are you able to drive it and enjoy it a bit now ? 
    • HUMVEE are fine in big open areas, but they are problematic on the street and tight areas As for reliability, some of the  US Army guys I have chatted with have said that when they were working they were fine, but, the do spend alot of time in workshops for multiple reasons, admittedly, they did get a hard time by the boys and girls who drove them I would definitely put them in the "buyer beware" category  They do look tough as nails though 
    • Just don't use ChatGPT or any other artificial stupidity for the equivalent of googling. Their demonstrated inability to discriminate reality from hallucination should be enough to make them totally untrusted. LLMs don't know anything and cannot think to even the smallest extent. They are just predictors of the next word, and that should never be confused with capability.
    • I think, given the usage model described in the OP, I'd never ever experience the wonders of the 400kW upgrade. What I really need is boost from 2000rpm and probably no more than 260-270rwkW. But I suspect that the highflow is not actually the turbo for that purpose, so I may in fact need to get a G25 or 30 or something right sized and very spooly. We shall see after it is tuned. I've had to back the boost and boost ramp off to stop the thing from pinging since the highflow went on, so I've been almost living the NA life for 9 months now! Injectors are recently in hand. AFM is in hand. Dyno is fixed. Just need to clear a queue of f**king Supras out of the way (and probably fit my new gearbox). So....some time this year? Lol.
