Experience Life. Keep Experiencing It.
Your Japex vehicle was hand-selected in Japan, inspected by our own team, and finished in our workshop. That same workshop is here for the life of your car — Central Coast born, Japanese-trained, and run by mechanics who know these vehicles better than anyone.
Why It Matters
It's the school run, the tradie's livelihood, the weekend escape to the coast, the road trip up to Port Macquarie with the family. When something feels off, it's not just an inconvenience — it's a disruption to your life.
That's exactly why we built our workshop the way we did. Not as an afterthought, not as a place to send you when something goes wrong — but as part of the promise we made the day you drove off our lot. We sold you a vehicle we believe in. We'll look after it like we mean that.
“We don't just hand over the keys and wave goodbye. We're still here — long after the sale, for as long as you own the car.”
Mechanics Who Know These Cars
Japanese-imported vehicles aren't the same as the cars most Australian workshops see every day. Different specifications, different parts numbering, different quirks — and most general mechanics simply haven't spent enough time with them to really know what they're looking at.
Ours have. Our technicians specialise in Japanese-market vehicles — the same models we source, inspect, and import ourselves. They've worked on hundreds of them. They know the common issues before they become expensive ones, the maintenance schedules that actually matter, and how to keep these vehicles running the way they were built to.
When you bring your car to us, you're not explaining your vehicle to someone seeing it for the first time. You're handing it to people who've quite possibly worked on that exact model dozens of times before.

Our Specialty: Delica & Hiace
The Mitsubishi Delica and Toyota Hiace are some of the most capable, versatile vehicles to ever come out of Japan — and we've spent years figuring out exactly how to bring out the best in both.
Mitsubishi
The ultimate go-anywhere people mover. We turn Delicas into rugged, capable adventure rigs — lifted, protected, and ready for whatever track you point it down. Equal parts tough and unmistakably cool.
Toyota
From daily driver to full off-grid build. Our Hiace conversions blend reliability with genuine adventure-readiness — interior fitouts, exterior armour, and the rugged stance that turns heads wherever it goes.
We don't just service these vehicles — we build them, accessorise them, and know every bolt, panel gap, and quirk. Whether yours came from us or you're bringing in your own Delica or Hiace to get the Japex treatment, our team knows exactly what to do.
Built Rugged. Built to Stand Out.
There's a reason people notice a Japex build before they even know what it is. We don't do generic. Every vehicle that goes through our workshop gets a look that's deliberate — rugged where it needs to be, refined where it counts, and finished with a level of detail that simply isn't standard anywhere else.
This isn't about bolting on parts for the sake of it. It's about taking a platform we know inside out and building something that looks as good as it performs — something that's unmistakably, uniquely Japex. That uniqueness is the whole point. We take real pride in it, and it shows in every build that rolls out of our workshop.
Genuine Parts, Sourced the Japex Way
The same network that gets us the right vehicles also gets us the right parts. Through our direct relationships in Japan, we source genuine and OEM-equivalent components — including models that other suppliers in Australia simply don't carry.
Mechanical
Engine, drivetrain, suspension, and electrical components sourced directly through our Japanese supplier network.
Hard to Find
For less common Japanese imports, we tap into our import pipeline to track down parts other suppliers can't.
The Japex Accessory Range
The Japex Badge
Every vehicle that leaves our workshop carries the Japex badge. It's not just branding — it's our signature on the work, and proof that the vehicle has been through our process: sourced with care, inspected on the ground in Japan, finished by hand in Gosford. When you see that badge, you're looking at a vehicle that meets the Japex standard. And when it's on your car, you're part of the Japex family — for as long as you own it.

Logbook servicing that keeps your warranty intact and your vehicle running the way it should.
From minor fixes to major work — diagnosed and repaired by technicians who know your vehicle's quirks.

Japex Motors Gosford
Interstate Buyer
"We recently purchased our van "Tokyo" from Mo and the team at Japex Motors. We are very excited about converting it into a camper van in the near future. The van is exactly what we were after - a SLWB, high roof, lots of windows and the small sliding windows on the sides were an added bonus which we absolutely love. Mo has been extremely professional, knowledgeable, kind and helpful since the day we first saw the van and we truly appreciate the time he has spent making sure that we were happy with the van so it was ready for our camper fit out. We feel like we have found someone who will continue to assist us in the future with any questions, sourcing parts, etc. Big thanks to Mo and the whole team."
Happy Customer
"We bought an extra high roof HiAce here for a really good price, and the team was super friendly. They let us inspect the HiAce thoroughly, and everything they promised, they delivered. I’m really satisfied with our purchase and highly recommend them!"

"I had amazing service from Adam at Japex Motors. As a single woman, buying a car can be overwhelming, but I really felt that he was honest with everything he told me and he didn’t try and rip me off. I bought a lovely Toyota Hyace, and also his cousin Mo took the time and helped me get my phone and Apple CarPlay all set up. Night recommend !"

"Mo at Japex Motors was so very helpful throughout the buying process. Hard enough buying from some distance but Mo was patient and helpful every step of the way. I really appreciated dealing with Mo. I now have my new to me Nissan Elgrand. "

"Cheers to the boys for helping me out. Offered me a great deal of guidance and direction, making it a much easier time as far as making decisions. Happier than I could have asked for with the van I got and can't thank them enough."

I would recommend jap motors and Mo and the team to anyone who is interested in buying a well priced car and great bang for buck value. Thanks guys love your work"
Satisfied Customer
"Highly recommend Mo at Japex Motors. Bought my 2019 4wd import hiace from him 6 months ago and have put nearly 10,000k’s on it since, almost half of that driving it back home to WA and it hasn’t skipped a beat. Was nervous buying a car sight unseen at first but it ticked all the boxes and Mo was great to deal with which gave me confidence buying from him. Upon returning to WA and getting it registered here there was a minor issue with the paperwork which meant I ended up paying a couple hundred $ more than I should have. I advised Mo of the issue and he straight away got it sorted out and offered to cover the extra cost without hesitation. It’s service like that and doing the right thing which seperates the good businesses from the great ones. Would not hesitate to recommend him to friends and family and Japex will be the first place I look if I ever want an upgrade!"
Happy Customer
