I ship by fully insured EMS, from Japan to Australia.

Single turbo via EMS costs $240 postage. If you dont believe me, I will post aup a pic of the shipping reciept for the first person who questions me. A HKS T51R SPL kit for a GTR I shipped last week cost $430. The reason I pay it is because it only takes 3 days to get the parts from Japan. Shipping by sea takes 4 weeks.....way too long.

Posting stuff from the US is very cheap compared to Japan.

When you want to send something to another country from Japan it is VERY expensive. Click on the link below to check out these shipping rates if no one believes me.

WE Are ZONE 2A, which means a 10kg package costs 16,100 yen, which is $214. Remember to include weight of box and packaging as well as the weight of the turbo.

Japanese Shipping Rates

I agree, shipping via EMS to oz from japan is very expensive... and i wonder why??

are you sure it only takes 3days to get here? my sources told me it took 2 weeks? and via container, would take 4-6weeks...?

does it have to go through customs if i was to use EMS?

anyway, how much would it cost to fly over an intercooler kit via EMS???

Am I sure it only takes 3 days ? I own and run Japanese Import Partswww.JapaneseImportParts.com I get 2 or 3 deliveries via EMS from japan every week, Trust me when I say I know how long EMS takes.

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
