Best dealers for skylines


Recommended Posts

since the thread is alive again

has anyone heard of "Power RD Car Sales" in dandenong??

they have some very well priced R33's and some with low km's etc. on them

there is one with 31,000km's on it *shock* i have never seen a skyline with that low km's

i was wondering if they are really dodgy or actually half-decent??

Thanks for the help ;)

I bought my 'line a couple of years ago from Best Choice Car Brokers on Williamstown Rd. Was 21k for a 94 R33 GTS25T, absolutely immaculate inside and outside. Only mod I could see was a cat back exhaust and tinted windows. Maybe a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for, and I have had no probs whatsoever since!

I would highly recommend buying a car through Mike there, he even bought the car down to Geelong twice for me.

Has anyone else bought a car from here?

::Thats interesting as what was swaying me with them was the extended warranty on their cars. ::

Yeah they have an extended warranty i got suckered into buying it. was like $400 extra.

All i Know is after my first service with them a few parts had to be changed, would of though the warranty/good will would of covered that.

They also wanted to charge me to fix the rattle they created cause it was taking them so long to fix...

they also have a panel beater/workshop down the road :)

i know theres a place on sydney road in the campbellfield area called "just jap auto imports" or something like that, hes dodgy, and hes prices are bs, 20 gran for a near stock R32 gts-t..... pffft.

theres another place on bell st in preston ( i 4get the name ), i was told there dodgy as well by some people on here, they have some nice cars but.

i ended up gettin my '94 R33 gts-t from allblitz after goin to like 10 different import places.

I can recommend Allblitz for his help so far with me. He has section on the main page in the very last sectoin. It is a list of the traders. Best way to make contact is via PM. User name is: allblitz

Website: http://www.allblitz.com.au/

HTH

mate sei motors r the dodgiest bastards ever, he once offered me 4500 for my sr20s180 and it was rwally ncie for a trade in wif a r33.

he said the reason he offered me that low is couse the roof was black as the car was ferrari red wif black roof and really tinted windows looked hot as.

anyways if ur in the marcket of a r32 i am selling myne really cheep as i need to sell it asap.

pm me if intrested

cheers

yeah allblitz is good, i can vouch for them, husnu is the guy to talk to down here in melb. top bloke and helpful as well, doesnt mind going into details about the car and doesnt mind answering any questions about them either. there located in the trader section you can get a hold of them there.

yeah jsa thats the name of that place, a guy on here told a story awhile back about a freind of hes who bought a 180sx from them, the paintwork they did on it was f***** and the bodykit was held on by like 3 screws and he payed like 22 gran for it or something..... thats highway robbery.

lmao what a dodgy bastard, sif it'd be worth 4,500, ive never seen a 180sx get sold for that much, besides..... alot of 180's have black roofs.... thats not an excuse to rip you off by like 10 gran lol

"theres another place on bell st in preston ( i 4get the name ), i was told there dodgy as well by some people on here, they have some nice cars but".

"JSA; I have heard some bad things"

HA, HA, HA. I bought my car through Jsa. Yes I could probably add a few things to the list. Good or bad it doesn't matter. lol

Yeah they have got some real nice cars there.

But in the end, 10 people could buy from the same differant impoter and you'll never get 100% satisfaction.

Like it has been stressed on here many of times, do your home work, know exactly what you are buying, get it checked out and you shouldn't have a problem.

Too many people are out to make a quick buck, you can tell when people are pissing in your pocket. Just suss' them out.

In the end of the day if you get a honest car for the price you paid you did well. The thing is, thats not too hard to find. What I would recomend is find a importer that offers (and keeps to there word) good after sales care. That to me is the big differance, and im sure many would agree.

WARNING!!!!!!!

DO NOT BUY FROM JSA (Japanese Sports Auto) in Preston

Dodgiest bastards around... i got burnt very badly from these guys, and heard of others who have also had similar problems.

If you do dare to buy, take a list and make them sign of parts that are meant to be on the car, they took mine to stock to get it complied and 'forgot' to put all the extra parts back on the car so when i got it... most of the 'good bits' were missing.

They also lied about the parts that were on the car...

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED

I would suggest buying privately cos you'd be saving heaps. These caryard dealers are probably selling them skylines at $4K or $5k more than what they bought them for. And it's not like they do much work or whatever after they get the cars.

However Allblitz does have quite a number of skylines at really good prices if you're looking for a "dealer". As for J-spec u can also get a good deal but it might be a long wait.

im not having a go, but you're all writing about how car yards are dodgy because all their cars have resprays and kits etc...

then you all praise allblitz....ive seen about 5 or 6 of the cars for sale through allblitz on their site, and they usually have aftermarket kits, and colors like monaro yellow etc....

the point is people will always have an opinion on a place, and usually because thats the only place they dealt with.

Difference between us and others is that we show the customer pictures of the car before it was resprayed just to prove it wasnt a damaged car. We find the public like the 'show' cars more and they sell much quicker.

If you want to buy a car there, make sure you have the money in hand before offering him a price as the owner there doesn't listen to you at all unless you show them the dough. Once he knows you don't have the money, he'll just head back into his office and laze around.

31,000kms on a 98 R33 MIGHT be believable, but 31k on a 96 skyline is BS.

    • Welcome Gabriel, and thanks for saving one of the less famous cousins!
    • Wanting to avoid this if possible but kinda looking like I may not have a choice 😭
    • Ok awesome thank you. Just wanted to have them in case I can find some and need to compare part numbers!
    • All I can say Duncan is good luck and I hope that Neil did not run any E85 in Cheryl. I have recently experienced the full spectrum of fuel tank issues in my R33's that had been caused by E85 and contaminated fuel. When you take the cover off the top of the tank and have a look inside you will get an understanding of how easy it will be. Best case situation is clean fuel with minimal contamination. My GTR was like this and it was a very simple operation to just grab the fuel pump carrier bracket and slide it up and out of the tank. My three GTS_T's had different levels of fuel contamination that was probably caused by E85 in the fuel.  In the worst case all of the metal components in the tank had rusted to the point where there were pieces of rusted metal swirling around in the tank. This required the removal of the exhaust, the tailshaft, the complete rear cradle and the fuel tank. The components in the tank were that rusted that it took days to get the fuel pump carrier and the mounting brackets out of the tank. When the tank was finally cleaned, everything inside the tank had to be replaced. With the tank all back together I could then reinstall it in the car along with everything else that had to come out. Good luck and I hope that you find a clean tank.    
    • It is a two door. It is black and also still has the OEM wheels and stereo. Exact model would be KR_R32RGFEL_SS According to GTR-Registry.com is a 2 Door Coupe; RB20DE; 2WD no HICAS; MT.F5; (11L) Projector Headlamps and Fog Lights; (12_) Electronic Active Full Auto Air Con (Climate Control); (13-14SS) V Selection -- Which seems to be accurate description of my variant. Will try to upload a few pictures soon. The OEM wheels look like the below image. Image is taken from the goo-net-exchange website.
