I have just been dealing with Marty Burnside from r&b toyota NZ and i can't say enough about them.
he is a top bloke and really keen to help out. even after i asked him a shitload of annoying questions about the parts i was buying and is really quick to reply via email.
the prices that i got on a whole heap of gear was heaps cheaper than anwhere else too, even with the shipping cost.
i got supra brakes, timing belt tensioner, breather hoses, engine gasket kit etc or $1000 cheaper than castle hill toyota. not that i'm bagging castle hill at all, as i will use them for smaller items as the freight cost will out weigh the item price.
for anyone wanting to use them heres the details
Marty Burnside
parts@rb.toyota.co.nz
phone- 385-0328 (plus all the crap you need for international calls)
the only thing he stipulated that is really necessary is the full chassis number of the car (JZS147xxxxxx). He said that they will "look after" the people on the Aristo/Supra forums too. how much i don't really know.
Hope this helps people out.

I've bought tons of stuff through them. Just about to (have to) get a lhr upper control arm as the bushes are flogged to shit. Looks like it needs the whole arm but I'll check and see if anyone does bushes.

Marty and Rory are excellent to deal with.
Might i just add they arent always the cheapest, as i found out with the coilpack connector harnesses. But 99% of the time they will be, Rory was quite surprised when i told him he was $10 more expensive than my local dealer.
agree - 9 times out of 10 Rory will have the cheapest price, even including shipping. _________________

If you have the EPC or visit www.toyodiy.com and supply them the actual part number you are after you will not need to give them a chassis number.
i gave them the part numbers but Marty still wanted the chassis number to check that he was suppling the right parts and i hadn't made a mistake with part numbers. this is good service through and through as far as i'm concerned, as i'd hate to order parts all the way here and find that they are wrong.
