Toyota wont even deal with them, such a trauma ring the parts dept,
I use now & then just ask for the part mumber
maybe its just were i live, but every workshop i go to ALWAYS asks if my AE86 in imported. it basically is a JDm 86 so i say yes. then bang, the "sorry mate, dont really want to touch it" attitude stinks. why do they hate imports? wiring is still wiring isnt it? even panel work. i recently got $1500 worth of rust cut out, but i only had to drive around to 4 workshops before i could find someone who would do it.
anyone else get hated on by workshops?

You should show them your balls. That will fix em!
going to the wrong places.
just say it's not jdm?
a motor is a motor, a panel is a pannel
thats the way i see it anyway...
i live in pretty much a retirement town, i guess all the shops are just keen on fixing new stuff and changing a blown tail light for the 80+ y.o. drivers around here...
Just find a shop that has a passion for their work rather than just a job...they tend to be interested in odd stuff.
When i had to get my car rewired the auto elctrician got over it because it was a conversion car..I then took it to a guy who loves figuring wiring out and he happily did it..

man that sucks, my solution would be try and do as much of the work as possible by yourself or bribe ya mates that know something with beer
i stand by my comment as a solution
usually harder to get parts for most of the time
