do some research... when an import has rail damage its because it was loded in japan via a forklift, the reason why they doent drive them on is because they normally have accident damage and are undriveable.

A mate of mine used to import and go to japan quite regularly, he said you could buy smacked up imports cheap and get em sent back to oz and repair them before sale.

Hence a cheap car, a few panels an paint and Big $$$ profit.

undamaged cars were driven on container ships and parked next to each other.

Therefore no signs under the car of forklift damage.....

Makes sense, thank god RAWS has come in to police the industry, it was soooo corrupt.

Another note for first time buyers is on the front of the engine there is the timing cover, a good way to tell if the engine/ car has done over 100,000 kms is to look at the top of the timing case, if there is an area that looks like it had a rectangular sticker/placard on it but has since been removed, that is the 100kms service placard from Nissan!

I saw that on a car that only had 18,000kms ... it was obvious that the clock was spun and the placard removed.

prolly same thing everyone else. I went there when i was looking for a car. Guy told me I could test drive one of his cars if a) I paid a deposit FIRST, B) HE was driving

 

Wonder why he went up???

Went there back in 2001 looking at a 300zx 93'model. fell in love with a car, organized a test drive time. Came back two days later at the organized time, the bloke said the car wouldn't be ready till 12noon. I said i would come back on my lunch break. Came back get ignored untill i went into the office, and asked what was going on then the M/F says to "are you serious about looking for a car? or are you just wasting my time?"

Pulled out my deposit said its ok i'll go some where else. RedLine didn't mind taking my business from me and got a nice R33 GTT from them.

Hope all there business goes to Motorcity! All the people i know who bought cars from them have had probs.

I was under the impression that the sticker was a warning sticker stating you must change the timing belt every 100,000kms - and that all skylines have it, or at least are supposed to to be complied?????
