Have any of you guys ever used/ dealt with this company before? I'm trying to purchase one of their R32's and even spoke to them on the phone but i want to make 100% sure that they aren't scammers or shady people to deal with. For instance: I send them a deposit and they turn out to be scammers, or i fly down there and it turns out the car they advertised is bull and i end up taking the bus home as a SOL!

Please anybody that has dealt, or knows someone that has done business with these guys please tell me if they are trustworthy!

Just a couple of things I noticed looking around their site.

1) They don't even know the previous company who imported these cars. They wrote "Moto-Ex" when we all know what it really is.

2) They use other companies images. On the Service page they use SP-Engineering's Supra-7. They definately didn't build that car and I hope they don't try and take credit for it. If you are a reputable company you use photos of your own work.

Call NHTSA ask for Mr. Coleman Sachs or Mr. Clint Lindsay. They will tell you whether they are reputable. As far as importing Skylines into America the only ones that can be imported legally are 1996, 1997, & 1998 as per NHTSA.

hmm thank you, i also thought that they seemed a little fishy. I even spoke to them on the phone and it did seem kinda odd. Also their websites full of grammer mistakes and poor sentence structures that too raised my suspicions.

Just to elaborate on "edthemanjp's" post.

The imports will be placed under bond and without DOT/EPA Certs you will not be able to Register them on the street in many states.

California will be totally off limits for registration.[No CARB Cert]
