theres a few places in japan making replicas of the g-grow 180sx valance currently so it may not be an original piece.

What once was $2,000 in 2001 was now $130 shipped via Zenmarket.

I love old school stereos.

Are you guys using a third party to buy stuff from this? Or can you just bid and buy from the us?

Hello Devol,

A registered user in Japan such as a third party is required as 99% of sellers will not ship overseas.

We offer a Yahoo Auction service with commission as low as 7%.

Please send us a inbox message of link to product anytime we can quote you.
We are helping many customers here on Zilvia already.

Thank you.

Auto Portal.

Hello,

If we ship from Japan by the EMS or DHL we always give tracking number.
If larger items sent by container the destination country will advise the customer when it arrives after customs.

Any other dealer should be same?

We will support you all in information of shipping when you buy items with us.

Kind regards,

Auto Portal.

I've ordered a few things from here. No problems. Seemed fair. They don't do big stuff however.

Auction just ended, hope shipping isn’t too much as the part itself was cheap. Auto portal wants more than double what the item cost to get it here for a pedal set. We’ll see I’ll update as I know mor.

yeah you have to wait for it to get to buyee, then they will send you an invoice of how much it will be to ship to you. you get a few shipping options/prices.

i bought some mirrors and a silvia grill and they put it into a single box once they received both packages. shipping was $55 and i got it in less than a week.

I've mentioned this to friends as of late.

I definitely wouldn't own half the rare shit I have if I had to pay the actual going rate these days.

I can admit to having a hoarding problem with these cars and parts, but I'm also not stupid about the way I spend my money, either.

Yeah i sometimes read old posts & speak to people who were collecting 5-7 years ago & prices have dramitically changed. To me, since i just got into all of this, these are the prices that i assume is “normal” but i have people hit me up all the time like wow i remember when i got “xyz” for only 100$ now its 400$ & i just sit in awe & wish it could go back to that lol. But the thing is, the prices will keep going higher as long as people are willing to pay.

It's equal parts the sellers and buyers willing to pay shit prices.

Sometimes I get things for less and sell them for more...but I always try to check current US market prices and undercut by like $100 or so to be competitve. 80% of the time I'm selling things I intended to use and then decided not to. I tell people to provide me with links to back up any claims over my prices being too high. It's only happened once.

The probelm is people doing it for sport. I have friends that do it because they actually need the cash to do things to their cars...they're not collecting trophies or anything here. I can justify that as well as my own practices.

The problem (for me) occurs when I see something on YAJ and two days later it's 3-4 times as much on here or IG. When I, or anyone else, try to call them out the sellers don't even deny it. They flaunt it and just say it's our fault for not watching the bid closely. That's true, to some degree, but these people are cunts anyway.

We talk about this from time to time and the biggest issue with this forum (one that I actually love) is that we are no longer allowed to band together to kick these fucks off the forum. I wholeheartedly believe that we should be allowed to roast dudes that blatantly mark shit up the minute the auction ends. That's how we make this marketplace better. That's why Hubeny has me blocked on all social media.

I took screenshots of the Yashio Factory Okachan Water Temp Sensor that sold the other day. It was in the original packaging, had the original sticker, and I've always wanted one. The price wasn't bad at 15,000...but my buddy helping me out forgot about the bid and I lost it to a 500yen increase. I'm WAITING for it to pop up here or on one of two resale IG pages. I've got the screenshots, though...so if someone wants to be a full-fledged fucking moron and pay an shitty mark up then that's on them.

$78... think i wound up paying roughly $330 for the header + shipping. brand new, was $1000 (discontinued as of a few months back actually). need to have it jet hot coated before install though. i wound up picking up a JDM cat so its a bolt in affair. the USDM cat section is much longer than the JDM setup. also need to get a secondary O2 bung welded into the header seeing as japan was on OBD1 standards until 2004.

[jumpman2334]

oh wow, that's cheap coming from japan. airmail?
