Excellent business. Sam always has great items available, and they're always high quality. I've bought an SR and many other assorted items from him and have ALWAYS had a great experience. He's probably the most knowledgable person I know (in regards to 240sx/RX7/AE86/JDM stuff).

I've bought a lot of stuff from Sam over the years, NEVER have I ever regretted doing business with him. In fact his attention to detail with customers has done nothing but improve in my experience.

If only all vendors were as helpful.

Sam is a cool guy. I don't really like hanging out in general, but I don't mind doing that at Jspec.

Agree, I've bought some stuff from him...a little on the pricey side...but it's all money well spent.."you get what you pay for"<---it goes a long way.

Sam is an awesome guy with lots of great stuff to offer. Posers need not apply to buy stuff from him.

Ditto on a couple of occasions years ago. Pricey and their attitude can improve.
But it's good to be in Socal and have choices.
And now that I know Nitekids works there gives me another reason to avoid them.

I cant say what Jspec did back when, but I have yet to have a problem with them.

Nitekids was somewhat of an online ass, but get to know the guy he is pretty chill.

I can definately vouch for the Quality of Service/Products provided. at times, yes it will become annoying upon convenience, but there is only 2 individuals who really make that spot pop off as a socal AFT/JDM parts entity, as well as; Anything that is worth having, takes time. They are at the #1 spot on my roster for resource parts. But there are others coming around. .. .Keep that up Sam/ Nighty Night Kid.

can be seen to have a massive attitude, I mean I tried to buy serveral things from him, but in the end I just went somewere else because I thought his customer service personally sucked. Not any big purchases , just a shift knob and some tanabe springs.

and I dont know how u socal guys do it, but everytime Ill ask for a price he will practically charge me msrp. How do you guys get such good deal, hell ill even try to lower it a little and he will say go buy it somewere else, I mean great customer service;)

Sam met me at his wearhouse at like 11:30 at night when I took a trip up to LA to get some front end pieces, that really impressed me and he was super cool when I met him. I'd buy from there again.

I bought a Corolla GT-S from Sam for $1,000 about two years ago. Granted, it was wrecked on one side and needed a core support (which he gave me for free), but the engine ran nice and strong for a year (until I did a 20V conversion). I still drive the hell out of that car! Sam is a great guy too.

very nice person, can give you a parts list rundown quickly of what you want/need in regards to the goals of your car. Sometimes has goodies come in that you must act quickly and get. Being there when customers call to complain at henry is comedy...

JSPEC.COM is great. I have ordered several rare parts from Sam. He always gives me a great price. Local pick up also available. Very knowledgeable and very helpful technically. Had a problem with jdm digital climate control. He met me to exchange the unit same day. AWESOME!! Will definitely order more from him in the future.

jspec.com is an interesting seller as its a throw back before the time of the automated shopping cart and imports 1 or 2 items of what you see on the site.

With that said, i've been a customer there since 1998, and i've always received excellent service and product. I remember sam importing special parts for my white s14, kouki oem rear valence (new), used Aero's bumper, grill, skirts, Navan wing, and a kouki bumper. Not to mention an S14 SR20det that was the heart of my project car.

jspec is a good shop and i am happy to shop there still and recommend it to friends.

What can I say... normally I can let my emotions get the best of me. When I got my shipment in my hands were shaky... my palms were sweaty... and you sent exactly what was shown on the site in even better condition than what I expected. My eyes watered up from the little extra stuff jspec.com sent along the way. While it may not seem like much, the poster Sam included was extremly appreciated. As for the products that was sent they were completely wrapped very well as well as the more breakable stuff that was bubble wrapped and included some cool JDM paper lol. If you guys buy from him just be sure to follow the complete directions on his site and you will have a great experience like I have. Jspec.com will continue to get my support.

Sam is a great guy to do business with. Excellent communication skills, nice guy to deal with and delivers everything as promised. I got some brand new 18" regamasters wheels from him and everything was perfect. He had to ship them overseas and I got them in 2-3 days. I am looking forward into doing business with him and jspec again.
Thanks Sam.

Sam is one of the best person i've ever dealt with when it comes to the parts i needed. I told him what i needed which he didn't have in stock at the time and rite when his shipment came in from Japan with the parts i needed he emailed me rite away. The next day he delivered it staight to my house and also gave me a great package deal. Great price a great business guy and always give you good advise. I will always get parts from him as all the parts i have bought from him has always been in great quality.

Thanks Sam.

I was sooo impressed with Sam and Jspec this last weekend..

I had been looking for oem kouki feders for over a week with no luck, then i get a tip from Irwin(redsquare) that Sam had them, I talk to sam and tell him how badly i want the fenders and i am willing to put a deposit down to hold them for me till monday since i work all day sunday.
at 5pm sunday I get a call from sam saying he is available and if i wanted to meetup when i got off work at 6 he could meet me at the warehouse, I was impressed that he even remembered my work schedule from a 2 minute conversation the prior friday. and even more that he was willing to meet me on a sunday night at a warehouse..

The fenders were professionally wraped in a very sturdy box, with bubble wrap, the price was great, and I really look forward to doing business again with Jspec.
Great guy, even gave me tips on suspension tunning wheel fitment and engine mods!
amazing.

yup, sam is the go to guy when is comes to 240s/silvias. i have known him since early 2000 and never had a problem. sam can pretty much get anything you want, from mainstream parts to rare jdm parts. i have bought many things from him in the past. i highly highly recommend.

thumbs up for jspec

I have been dealing with Jspec.com since 02-03 I think and there is a reason i keep going back. Sam gives you all the facts and no bull shit! All his parts are high quality and always great condition. The prices get better and better, remember guys this is high quality hard to find stuff so you get what you pay for. I have NEVER had a damaged item, slow shipping, or bad communication from Sam. The thing i love the best is that it is way more personable then dealing with all these larger internet based companies. I highly recomend you buy from Sam!
