Yeah , i think that happened to me too.. best option i found was to call them... contact details are on there website i think

http://www.ironchefimports.com/site/

(not affiliated with them at all, so I am not trying to get a sale)

Good luck

powervehicles.com is run by english couple Andy and his misso (think thats their names I'm hopeless with names) and run the drift camps at Ebisu circuit.

They are top people and have very good contacts and have a strong association with the Team Orange drift performance team. They help a lot of people going to Japan to buy cars for the drift matsuri's and do a lot of imports and get some shit hot cars.

I'd personally have no issues using them for sending or sourcing a special vehicle and I am in no way affiliated with them.

Met them a couple of times and was impressed with their set up at Ebisu.

Yeah it's Andy and his partner Emily, and they are Scottish... (like me)

I was over in Japan a few years back and met them at Ebisu. Really nice couple and they do have a shit load of nice cars. They helped one of my mates who I was traveling with at the time buy a monster FC RX-7 so I'm pretty sure they would be more than helpful in sourcing a car for you.

how much roughly would it be to land her a R32 GTR. doesnt have to be perfect paint or interior.

Can have some fruit would be nice.

No HUGE amounts of rust.

Will be tracked only.

Just a rough guide would be good

    • So my R32 GTST has been sitting around at my old mum and dad's place for a few years now...and it's time to bring it home. Main issue I have is that she hasn't been started in about 5 years or so, so I'm not too keen on just kicking it over and hoping that RB20 reputation for being un-killlable extends to long periods of neglect. My plan is to get it running there so I can move it around,  then get it towed back to my place where I can start working on it properly. The old folks driveway is a bad place to start a project like that. I'm getting old too and also haven't stuffed around with cars since forever, so kinda learning this stuff again. So far I've siphoned out all the shitty old fuel and topped up the coolant (thought it was fully dry but took 2 litres to fill the radiator). Planning on hitting the rusty rotors with some brake cleaner in case the tow truck driver gets a bit gung ho loading it up. As far as oil, it's got plenty although it's now dark in colour and obviously needs a change sooner rather than later. Was doing some YouTube research and was planning to hand-crank the motor from the harmonic balancer with a 37mm socket and breaker bar, removing the spark plugs and spraying some "fogging oil" in the holes but there's not much room to get in there with the radiator fan right up against it. Jacking the car up takes too long and I can't leave it half done between visits. So now I'm was thinking of cranking a few times it using the starter (removing plugs and spraying oil first). Reckon there's any chance it will do more damage that way if something's stuck inside the motor? Should I really change all fluids completely before I go any further? Grateful for any other advice you guys have to get her going safely too.      
    • Well, that's just wierd. Amongst a string of seemingly benign introduction and request for help threads, we have this one with a link.... to another, unrelated thread inside this forum. Colour me suspicious.
    • Sorry to say, I think that is a pretty long shot on this forum.....
    • sorry, "info" from Lumley here: https://www.lsvcarinsurance.com.au/about-nrma-insurance
    • So it looks like Lumleys are closing other than in Victoria, with the kind offer that another brand from the evil IAG multi-glomerate (NRMA) might offer insurance under their price and conditions if they want to, as an alternative. Lunmleys was good for us because they covered JDM and USDM imports, had 2 car "stable" insurance (ie, insure many cars but max of 2 can be driven at once), covered mods, reasonable overall prices. So, with them gone, who else should I consider? Shannons is last on my list, we used to be insured with them until we found they were helpful at taking premiums but much less helpful at claim time.
