Sydney, Australia - TRD, Cusco, HKS, etc

A guy I've been dealing with for years has landed a container load of Jap 86 parts to go into his new showroom in the western suburbs of Sydney.

Yes, it's the same person newft86 has mentioned, but it's not just TRD stuff.

This person is THE BEST aftermarket parts supplier I have ever dealt with (and I've dealt with lots), but he's currently too busy putting in floors/hoists/shopfront/etc to come on here and flog his wares.

The shop should be open in a fortnight. If you can resist being ripped off on ebay until then, you'll be glad you did.

No, I don't have more info now. I've been holding off saying anything for months, but with people looking at dodgy ebay deals I thought it was prudent to say something.

His name is Michael ... and he's not too busy to check on here and point out that I forgot to mention he picks up his GTS tomorrow.

Come on Mick, it's time to show yourself. Get Leo to take photos of all those tasty parts being fitted.

Cool. If Mick can't get on here can you get him to email you a quick write up about his shop / what he's got to offer?

As I said, he's busy actually setting the thing up so that it's good to go when everybody gets their 86s.

Suffice to say that he's a top bloke, a fantastic mechanic and has been a great parts wholesaler for many years.

Work out from that what kind of place would be his "dream shop" and you've got some idea.
