Anyone ever deal with them??

Someone in my classes has used this sight for parts for his car

their place is located in 8210 Rue De Creusot Montreal


Just kinda curious because they have imported skylines, supras, 300zxs, and many other cars

but it seems kinda shady

haha their french canadian, how shady could they be haha jk jk.


i have never seen this before but its bookmarked now lol

as far as i know Canada's laws for importing are a bit more slack than the american's. that being said there is always a big risk when importing a car from another country.

i do like their skyline gtr tho lol

if it wasnt 9hrs away i would definitely take a trip up there.

yea thats why im curiouis... they have some 300zx's and supras going for 6k-10k which is dirt cheap... but who knows whats wrong with them and if they would even pass US emissions

oh and they are all RHD


edit: I'm just looking to move on from the tib.. had it for almost 5 years now and the age is beginning to show

just got the tranny replaced under warranty. and now its in the shop for 3k worth of repairs not under warranty (short to ground burnt out the tranny wiring harness and a couple other things)

its one thing to import it from japan to Canada, its another thing to import from japan to Canada then us. you would definitely attract some attention from the border. now if the car was registered in Canada then imported to the states that might smooth things over but still, its a big gamble.

yea but all of those are buying motors or parts ^ im trying to see if anyone has bought an entire car from them

And the mean reason im curious is because the supras they have are so cheap, and thats what im trying to replace the tib with.

Thats true but what i was reading was their customer service. thats what will be important. i mean if you buy a car form them and as you leave the parking lot it throws a rod whats to stop him from treating you the same way as he treats everyone else who buys a motor. Canadian laws are not the same when it comes to buying a car (then again i dont know the us laws) but when buying a used imported car, its buyer beware.

Yea thats very true. Who knows when i get my car back from the shop (the harness will take a couple days to get in) so I have plenty of time to search for a car. Plus im not going to be buying anything at least until the snow leaves. But if anyone happens to be in that area and has had some experience with this place im all ears.

Yea i want to find one thats not been beaten on. All the ones close to me are around 60k miles but are complete stock which is what i want... but auto. I'm willing to go with auto though its just the cars may look good but the undercarriage could be rusted to hell.

As mentioned before if they have negative feedback from customers for motors and parts. Of which case would should be relatively easy to import I would imagine being they're a dime a dozen what's not to say that it would be even more of a headache with importing a vehicle.

If the vehicles have already been imported and registered in the U.S. then by all means take the chance being that they are close to you and can visit the facility if any issues arise or otherwise.

yea but the only thing that kinda makes that believable is the fact they are imported from japan... supras and skylines are dirt cheap over there
