I definately recommend Iron Chef. The guy is a legend....he was listing an R32 GTR Bakemono not long ago, 600ps, all original panels, no rust, basically mint condish for 29,000$ and log books etc. I would have bought it if I had the money (only had 12k or so at the time from memory. Soon after I told SAU about it, it got snapped up so not sure if the buyer ended up being off SAU.

The good thing about Iron Chef is he has people in Japan who will make sure the car is exactly what you're after (he has shown me a very clean, mint, original condition 180sx he sold a customer). Whilst I dont have the money now for a twin turbo Supra...when the time comes that I have enough money saved... I will definately be buying the vechile through Iron Chef and putting his sticker on the back windshield, that is how confident I am. My mum may be in the market for an S15 soon and is thinking about putting the commodore berlina up for sale...just depends upon whether she will import a spec r silvia or buy one locally (spec S 200sx locally as she doesnt want a sunroof). But yes, if she goes the import route definately through the chef.

Also, you might want to look over Japan at Garage Defend...the place is a GTR Specialist and only sells grade 4 vechiles and above.

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
