Hi Everyone,

Im looking at importing a r32 GTR (struggling to find what I want available privately).

Currently I have 3 importers Im considering going through and was just wanting peoples opinion or info if they have dealt with them.

1. Top Secret - Pretty much heard great info about them, but they are out in Blacktown and im near Menai (not that it is a real issue)

2. Xtreme Motorsports (along Parra Rd) - Spoke to one of the guys there on Sunday and got a pretty good vibe.

3. Just Jap - Spoke to the guys at Pulse Racing, who worked on my gtst, they recommended them (10min from home) for their imports.

Top Secret I keep reading good reviews, Xtreme Motorsports I could find a little bit about them, and Just Jap I could not find any opinions when it came to their imports.

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers

one of my mates said that Nagoya Motors (along Princes Highway) is pretty good too!!! they specialise in Skylines and are happy to import for you... not too pricey either!!! Xtreme Motorsports are pretty good too... they usually have pretty sweet cars in there.... the owner, Joe, LOVES his GTRs too!!!!!!

Iron chef imports +10

Got us our 'family' car and we're in QLD.

He can be a bit slow with emails but it happens when you have 10million dipsh*ts a day wanting to buy but don't have the cash in hand.

Get your money ready and suit up for the ride!

All of the above can do a good job exporting your car to Oz.

1 Top Secret are very good in their communications through Jack and Garry. They run track days for their clients + they have a backup service dept.

2 Xtreme will attempt for sure that your car gets a trouble free ride through Joe

3 Just Jap may not turn over as many cars as above, since Steve imports lots of half cuts for spares, but there's no complaint from Kim who got a R34 GTR N1 through them. And Paul at Pulse Racing will only make that recommendation with you in mind. Afterwards, JJ will also give you a good discount on spares.

4 Nagoya through Alex will certainly look after your needs with good communication.

5 Iron Chef has good efficient spotters in Japan who'll only give a tick on a good car. The freight contact is cheaper than some others but does take great care. And Kristian ensures that your car gets smooth compliancing here in Sydney through Todd at JapLink Haberfield. There's a backup service dept there too with RB specialist Kazu. My last two GTRs have come this way.

steer clear of 'brad bottchers used cars' in Maryborough Brisbane. Had a god -aweful experiance with buying my first GTR off him. Save yourself the hassle and go elsewhere.

Whoa!!!

Long way from Sydney too!!!

LOL

^^ Haha I noticed that

Thanks everyone, you have all helped a little by telling me they are all good + iron chef... Although didnt really narrow my selection.

Now its time to bite the bullet and make some calls I think

I've taken on a kitchen hand to handle all those kinds of emails now lol - and yes, 70-80 emails a day (not including a similar number of spam emails...). And of course, when you do the right thing and answer emails, THEY ASK MORE QUESTIONS!! Haha

I bought my car through Just Jap, great to deal with and will always remember you and ask how the car is going

Like Terry said Paul at Pulse Racing (also my tuner) will only recommend someone he would use and can do the job

Great, thanks guys.

Just Jap seemed good when I was there, the guy I spoke to pretty sure was Steve, definitely a huge fan of his GTRs ... except he was suggesting I consider an evo as a daily as oppose to a GTR (Although I still want a GTR).

Justin. Yeah itd be good to know how it all goes for you.

    • The trigger kit I have is similar to the one in the link below. While going through Facebook, I saw someone else mention a similar issue, and I’m starting to think this could be related to the crank gear itself. I understand these parts are CNC machined, but maybe some earlier versions or individual pieces might have slight inconsistencies—it just doesn’t look right in my case. https://www.facebook.com/share/16an8evZd9/?mibextid=wwXIfr I originally installed the crank gear using the thin OEM washer, but as shown in the attached photo, the timing belt walks very close to the edge. When I tried using a Nitto washer—which is thicker—it actually made the issue worse. The belt walks about 1mm off the front edge, which raises more concern about alignment.   I’ve gone through the full process of elimination:   The tensioner pulley and bolt are brand new and installed correctly. The bolt isn’t bent and is oriented properly. The back of the tensioner and the idler pulley are clean and seated correctly. The idler sits slightly more forward, which I understand is due to its design. I’ve experimented with both tight and loose belt tension, but it makes no difference. As soon as the engine runs, the belt immediately walks forward again—even if I reset it beforehand.     At this point, I’m considering replacing the crank gear with your Race Version 1 (12-tooth), but before purchasing, I wanted to ask:   Are you aware of any alignment issues when using this gear? Would this gear help keep the belt aligned correctly, or could the walking still occur? Does it work with a standard missing-tooth crank and rear washer? Is there any specific crank setup or install procedure required?     For reference, I’m not using a front washer, as the PRP crank gear seems to replace the need for one.   Looking forward to your advice.
    • Yep, looks that way. Never driven an E30 or R31 so I can only imagine
