People. Now that I am back from official duties I want to resume my hobby of bringing in parts that people want / need.:rolleyes2: To that extent I am thinking about the following: 300ZX TT Factory rims - The ones with the 8.5" rears so you can run 245 or larger tyres (set of 4 $750) 350Z 18" Rims - Direct bolt on and they fill out the wheel arches nicely. (Set of 4 $800) Infinity G35 18" Rims - A slightly different look to the 350Z rims (7 versus 6 spokes) (Set of 4 $900) Obviously these prices are for a single set. If I can get a few definite customers and ship 4 or 5 sets in via container (air) then the price comes down. I am also interested in bringing out more Infinity Speakers that fit in the factory speaker locations without the need to modify anything. See my thread on stereo install to see what I mean. Other items that I can supply a lot cheaper than anything locally are SRS airbag centres for late model steering wheels, headlights, tail lights and centre sections, instrument pods and most interior items. I would also like to get a group buy going on either HKS, ARC or GReddy side mount Intercoolers for the 300Z. Personally I lean towards the HKS units but will work with whatever you guys want to go with. I guarantee this buy will be cheap, get here in quick time and not have the same outcomes as that other notorious side mount group buy!:bash: :bash: What I cannot do, because of shipping costs are body kits! However, if i organise a 20' container that will obviously change because the space will exist. The name Kaminari and Stillen come to mind and I even have a Kaminari kit sitting in California with no current option to import!!! The last time I tried this I got canned by some people and that's fine........it's a free world. It just frustrates me to death to see the price we have to pay for items over here in Aus. that sell for a lot less overseas. I have established contacts over the years that can supply me with virtually anything for both 300ZX and 350Z that one might need and there is no need to risk your money dealing with some unknown seller on Ebay; been there done that and been burnt myself!:vomit: As the heading says....it's an EOI........so I am open to suggestion. Let me know what parts are in demand and I will draw up a list, get prices and start the ball rolling. I get a real kick out of this and above all else....love seeing others save money and get a good deal:zlove:
So you are able to get body kits ?? If so me and 7 other people would be interested in a Geddy style urathane front bumper.:zlove: cheers mike
People sell them for like $200 bucks on the forum. I dont think it will be feasible for you unless you can bring in some crash hot prices. Its all about the money!! baby...:rolleyes2:
It's not always about price....... In close to a year I have been a member of the forum I have yet to see a TT factory set of rims go on sale. I wanted a set myself to preserve the factory look and because some clown fitted the NA set to my car prior to shipping from Japan but have not had any luck. Certainly, there have been many set on offer but none have been the TT set with the wider 8.5" rear rims. If anyone has a set I can buy I will abandon trying to get a set from the States and buy a set locally.:zlove:
The J-Spec NA's and TT's had the same wheels. Only the US and Euro TT's had the wide rears... Only seen one set of these in real life.
There were a few J-Spec I have seen a few Zeds from Japan with the wider rear wheels which is where i got the idea from. However, trying to get a set was near impossible until I put the question to my US associates. Now I have 5 sets available. Problem is to bring a single set in at a time is expensive. If I had some interest I would consolidate and bring all 5 sets in which would lower the price considerably!
US Spec. 8.5" rear wheels on the way The first set of these is currently on its way to me and will be here in about 3 or 4 weeks.:zlove: Will post some pictures of how they look on the car when they get here. I have another set sitting in Southern California if anyone is interested!:zlove:
Hey mate, I pmed you about getting me a part i was after back a year ago and at the time i decided to hold off on it and found out its no longer avaliable from everywhere ive tried getting it from. I remember you said your US guy had heaps of them i was hoping you could ship one to me if you can. Ill pm you know about the part i was after.
Series 2 AC Amplifier DJ.....Sent you a PM about this but decided to add a thread in here as well. Got 2 of these coming over so you can have one if you still want it. Cost is $130 inc postage. If anyone else wants a series 2 AC Amplifier which seems to be near impossible to get ATM.....let me know. Also, it would be a good time to request anything else on the smaller side that you guys might want. Might as well add everything together and ship as one package so as to save on postage.:thumbup:
yeah, i want these - was going to get a shop to import them specifically for me but if you get them that would save me trying to sweet talk some shop. maybe also get some commonly broken stuff, like: *drivers doors (esp the window mechanisims *the weather cowl in front of the windscreen above the engine bay (forgot what it's called) *2000 spec front bars *2000 spec tail lights many other little stuff people keep asking for. yeah?
Yeh thats kool mate, please hold one for me. I hope the part number i gave you is the same one on the amplifier. If so then wen do you want me to pay or would you prefer me to pick it up??
