Posted on Orlando VitulanoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Big thanks to Jate, Shoto and Ben for making the process of importing a car from Japan so easy. All you need to do is set your budget and pick from the many options that are available—they take care of the rest. I appreciate how well-informed I was kept from the moment I first called up until I picked up the car. Will definitely use their services if I choose to import again. Cheers guys.Posted on DKTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Just spoke to Ben over the phone about potentially importing a gu swb and couldn’t of asked for better service, quick as response time to my inquiry, super friendly and gave me the full run down on everything I needed to know, from market range to importing process and how things work over in Japan. 100% recommend these guys for your importing needs. Absolute legends!Posted on Brad RussellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I contacted Jate regarding an imported car for my dad. He was very helpful and spent time researching various options, which I then passed on to my dad to complete the transaction. Great customer service - highly recommend these guys when importing vehicles from Japan!Posted on Alex DaleyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I originally set out to import an R34 Skyline, but after struggling to find one that both JDM Connect and I were happy with, we shifted focus to an R32—We found a 1989 R32 type M from Japan. What I didn’t expect was how complex the import process could become, especially with the added challenges around older vehicles. Even though it’s a late ‘80s car, there are still strict requirements, including asbestos compliance and testing, which can quickly turn into a stressful process if you’re not prepared. Both JDM Connect and I had to navigate the realities of importing an older vehicle, including the asbestos regulations and testing requirements, but they kept me informed every step of the way and handled the process professionally. Their knowledge of the system and persistence in pushing things forward really stood out. I’d definitely recommend JDM Connect to anyone looking to import a car—they understand the challenges involved and know what it takes to get everything completed properly.Posted on Derek AutyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing company to work with. Kept me informed and updated through the whole process and ended up with an amazing car. Definitely recommend!!Posted on NathanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had been browsing Japanese car sales sites for a clean, low-kilometre WRX, but was hesitant to pull the trigger because I didn’t know how to navigate the import process myself. After doing some research, I reached out to JDM Connect in Perth due to their positive reputation, and I am so glad I did. Upon making contact, Jate immediately initiated the vehicle search process and provided all the information I requested to help me decide on the right car. I was initially very nervous about who I could trust with such a significant purchase, but Ben was outstanding to deal with from start to finish. His exceptional professionalism and clear communication put me at ease. Ben is a fantastic communicator—he kept me updated on my vehicle’s progress every step of the way and was always happy to answer any questions I had. Regardless of the query, I received a response very quickly every single time. Most importantly, the import process and all associated fees were completely transparent, with no hidden surprises. If you are looking to import a car from Japan, I would highly recommend JDM Connect. They made what could have been a stressful experience completely seamless and worry free. Thanks guys, I am so happy with the car; it's exactly what I was hoping for.Posted on Lachlan MurphyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I purchased a 1989 manual twin turbo 300zx through JDMCONNECT and i couldn’t be happier. The boys kept me updated throughout every step of the process and i ended up spending 6k less than i thought i would. wouldn’t change a thing ❤️Posted on HelenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Posted on Ali AbdulfaragTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Shoutout to Ben for helping me out with my Crown while Jate was away. He was super helpful online explaining how everything works and made sorting the car out really easy. The Crown drives great, stable, reliable, exactly what I was after. Really happy with both the car and the support!Posted on Stephen AirlanggaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jate and Ben are amazing at what they do, they have facilitated in selling my Toyota Crown and made the process smooth and simple, definitely the go to for Import cars 100% recommended and will be doing future business with them
Frequently Asked Questions
We import a wide range of Japanese and European brands sourced through Japan's auction networks, including Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Mazda, Subaru, Mitsubishi, Suzuki, Isuzu, Daihatsu, Lexus, BMW and Volkswagen. If you don't see your preferred brand listed, get in touch.
Yes. If you have a specific model, year, colour or spec in mind, let us know and we'll search Japan's auction houses to find the closest match. The more detail you give us, the better we can target the right car for you.
Yes. Japan has a strong market for European vehicles, and models like BMW and Volkswagen are regularly available through Japanese auctions. These cars are often well-maintained, lower in mileage and competitively priced compared to buying locally in Australia.
Toyota and Nissan are consistently our most requested brands — models like the Supra, Chaser, Skyline and GT-R are perennial favourites. Subaru WRX STIs, Honda Type Rs and Mitsubishi Evos are also highly sought after. Family-focused buyers tend to go for Toyota Alphards, Vellfire vans and Lexus models.
Not every model is eligible for import into Australia. Compliance depends on the vehicle's age, make and specifications. We check eligibility before bidding and walk you through any compliance work required once the car arrives. You can also use our import eligibility checker to confirm before you commit.
Absolutely. Our listed brands are just a snapshot of what's commonly available. Japan's auction network is enormous, and we regularly source vehicles outside of what's shown on our site. Reach out and tell us what you're after — we'll do our best to track it down.
