Haven't they all been involved in dodgy dealings at some point in time?

The only one I can really think of with a clean slate would be Northshore Prestige...

I used to be part of NthShr Prestige. They shut their doors because of these other dealerships.

So too did JLM.

Once Ginza sent a rusted EVO across for compliance a second time after repainting it.

Once the compliancer recognised the car, poked his screwdriver through the floor and rails, he'd had enough.

He opened the doors on the driver'side, raised the EVO on the hoist to the roof and...

Ever heard a B pillar crack?

Ever heard reinforcement bars detach?

I reckon 10~15 years too late... most of our beloved R32/33/34 S13/14/15 are quite frankly overpriced cars.

All these pricks have already gotten rich in the past and now just surviving living off what they do best.

What about iron chef?

I hold no ties to the business what so ever. Genuinely curious as he has a good name around most forums.

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
