I got in trouble for saying all the truth I said about SM last time.

I just blatantly retold the story of what happened to us and how dodgy our car was... and I got introuble saying "They read this you know" Like some kind of threat that they were going to come and kill me or something ...

I bought my car from Auto J Mart (or AJM) about 15 months ago and I have no complaints. I have done 30000km since then and haven't had a problem. The only money I have spent is on fun stuff, and thats the way it should be.

But I will say, like all sales people you still have to watch them. They are there to make as much money as possible and at every opportunity they tried to get me to sign on the dotted line before they completed the things I asked for. Thats normal though. Just do alot of research. I only wish I knew then what I know now, it would have made purchasing, and more importantly bargaining much easier.

Agreed, don't go there. Import it or buy second hand - which luckily enough, mine is for sale

Any reason why? A mate of mine bought one through there and it seemed ok. Feel free to PM since you cannot really post on the forums.

Thanks.

My mate bought a 180SX through AJM and had a few problems with it, I wont go slagging off a company here as other people are saying they've had good results though them, needless to say $1300 later his 180SX is now going great. PM me if anyone has questions about that. I think the best thing you can do is a sh1tload of research, take your time because knowledge is power, and the more power and knowledge you have the better you will come out in the end, even if it does take a little bit longer.

Try Special vehicle imports SVI.com.au in Virginia

I recently imported a mint r33gtr v-spec with 40k on it and the whole experience was effortless.

Had no problems with car so far and am very pleased with it.

They are good people . Just specify our requirements and they will do the rest.

all da best

hey all i bought my 95 r33 gts25t from a dealer called gold star autos with 108000kms for $13000 had a cpl of tiny problems like about 2 weeks after i picked up the car the speedo started to play up a bit and one of the switches for the headlights stopped working, however was fixed within a cpl of days no problems at all. the car had been in aus for a cpl of weeks and just finished getting complied the day i looked at the car. he would have to have atleast 20-30 skylines in stock at anyone time. his website is http://www.goldstarautos.com.au/ all the contact details are there. also when you go to view a car he will put it up on a hoist for you to have a look underneath it.

I'm closing this given that the majority of the info is very old and therefore of little use, and the fact that it's been dug up more than once.

Thanks for posting your experiences guys but please try to find a more recent thread :D

    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
