What are your favorite places to order RB parts? What are some INSANE deals you have got before?

For myself,

Ordering OEM: Ztune
Ordering aftermarket: Ztune, FRSport RawBrokerage, Enjukuracing and the Zilvia.net marketplace
Ordering tires/wheels: 1010tires.com hands down. Based in vancouver, insanely cheap shipping and speedy!


Some good deals I scored:

OS Giken ts2bd (iirc) with 150km's on it for $350...yes...you read that right. Local shop had a guy put it in his car and within 150km' his block had signs of cracking. With his rebuild he opted for a carbon clutch so I scored. I happened to be there the same time as the owner who just was so frustrated he wanted to get rid of parts ASAP.

Someone was parting out an RB powered S13 project they bought, had no idea what his s15 injectors (480cc drop in for rb25) were worth and I ended up scoring 6 of them for about 200US brand new.

Anyone else?

Best Deals I have got in the past Year:

You name it. I don't pay retail, or even Retail -20% for NOTHING.

Adam at feast auto export used to supply me with oem parts. I haven't needed too many of those lately so I don't even know if he is still around. We had good pricing worked out.

I stricktly use Adam for the most part. I just bought parts from him as recently as last month. He is still kickin but his response times are getting a lot slower than what they were when I started using his services in 05. I get damn good deals from him because I always refer people to him and his service is un-matched by and sponsor on the other forum. Best prices by far. His last package price was close to half of Daryls quote

I also use Nismoparts.com and Nissanparts.cc for a lot of OEM stuff

I like ebay for limited items because a lot of it is chinese garbage

ive used Ztune and Adam@feast in the past... both super helpful and easy to deal with... the parts i got from adam took just over a week from japan regular courier no rush service, the parts from Ztune took only a coulpe days the first time and just over a week the second time, but the second time they were waiting on some parts to arrive...

good experiences with both

Things get stolen if the car goes RO/RO.. container shipping is fine.. car is sealed in.. parts are safe.. i have never had anything stolen in 5 years of container shipping..

Hmm. I only really need a front facing plenum modified to fit an RB20. They are rarely found but maybe you are lucky?

dammmnnn those manifolds are minty allan,,whats the point of the balance tube though...to equal out boost? by the looks of it it would cause some turbulance.
