You might be the owner of a JDM spec car, but more often than not, it’s a stock standard machine from Japan. Getting it tuned will be an all Malaysian affair, which is good as this will directly be a boom for our local aftermarket tuning industry. Believe me; our local tuning specialists are more than capable of getting the job done right.
However, there is this little group that does not need the expertise of our locals as these guys are fortunate owners of JDM machine that is already tuned by the Japanese. We are not talking about those super rich yuppies who could afford to send their cars to Japan for tuning, but students or expatriates who at one time had studied or worked in Japan and had acquired a JDM car that is tuned in the land of the rising sun.
As you all know that used cars in Japan are dirt cheap and for a guy to own a Skyline is really no big deal. Due to this economical pricing, Amirul, a 25 year old lad while studying in Japan had purchased this featured 1998 Skyline, which is his pride and joy, without burning a hole in his pocket. As Malaysian students are entitled for the precious AP (Approved Permit), Amirul, after completing his studies had thus shipped his ride back to our local shores as even with the cost of freight, the overall cost was deemed much cheaper than getting a unit back here.
