JDM Order & Shipping

Delivery from New Jersey to London UK

Well guys there has been some debate on this forum with regard to supply & delivery from vendors who supply parts and everything else we hunger for.


I have ordered many items from UK suppliers and it's amazing how US $ turns into Pounds £ sterling

JDM have supplied a number of items direct to my home address near London - England, yeak ok not far from Heathrow Airport but with all the shipping & handleing plus import tax & vat etc etc have arrived pretty quick.
Five days or less from dispatch New Jersey.

Yes once or twice a few things got missed, but sorted for the next shipment.
To be fair I took some parts home with me when I left Newark, and bolts and fixing were out of stock, and a drive belt got missed out - I can get those things here in UK anyway.
(Drive belt & Girdle bolts sorted out on next delivery.)

Yeah sometimes personal calls over the phone are not possible as the guys are dealing with other customers and callers, and e-mails don't get answered by return for the same reason. Plus time difference.

The main purpose of this post is to thank everyone at Team JDM for thieir help and assistance in sorting out my orders and shipping all the items intact across a shed load of water to my door.
A big thanks everyone at Team JDM.


And I look forward to dealing with all the suppliers in the USA who have all been very helpfull over the last few years.

The only regret is I cannot race against you guys in your back yard, unless Rob or Vinnie will lend me their truck for the 'Two Lane Backtop'
(BTW if I ran Vinnie's truck I would knock 1/10 of his time cos i weigh less LOL)
Maybe if I win the lottery I can have a race truck over there as well

Regards Ricki

I'm sure loving my JDM experience
150 MPH + club here BABY.....
JDM ROCKS !!
(well except for me getting my wrrnty voided by posting I went 150MPH +)

Ricki you can make a pass in mine anytime Pal, come on down......
I've read some of the negative post through the years and I have ALWAYS found nothing but awesome Service and results from JDM, and hear the same from each and every one of their customers. Location location location is what kept me away for years, but hey if my Pal Ricki can do it from the other side of the pond, I sure can being a mere hundred or so miles away.

ROCK ON MY BROTHERS!!

Hey Rick...instead of coming over here to race, have Vinny fly over there with his truck! I heard he owns a private cargo jet....or something!

Now I like the idea of that.

Vinnie at SantaPod - that would be a JDM Shoot Out
You guys have some awesome trucks but there are a few supprises here in the UK too.

I might take up Rob's offer to have a run in his truck.
Just say at least I have done it.

You lot are all "Top Geezers"
