Hey everyone,

I've just agreed to buy some rims off someone in Queensland and was wondering if anyone has ever had rims sent over to Melbourne from Queensland, cash on delivery before?

Any info regarding cost, time, companies etc would be most appreciated.

Thanks,

Ali.

Hey there.

Unsure if U have organised anything as of yet but I work for a transport company that will be able to provide transport from QLD to Melbourne but we dont do COD. Not sure if any company's actually does this at all.

If you would like me to do you a quote, please send me a PM with the details of the shipment including your contact details.

Well thats an average price from australian air express who don't offer cod (we move alot of wheels around and they charge us about $30 for every 10 kilo'ish box).. I guess AAE is more corporate and would probably have better rates. Also guessing cod will cost extra so my quote is probably a bit off :(

I can recommend bus freight (www.busfreight.com.au) for large or heavy items. We also have our own courier (Allied Express) and get very good rates for large boxes, if you give me dimensions, postcodes and weight I could get a quote for you.

Are you shipping the wheels with tires?

Australia post to my knowledge is the only company which will do COD.

But you can forget australia post. As a in a box wheel will cube out too much.

I onced used couriers please to do COD, but you can forget that aswell since your sending to QLD.

so your sh!t out of luck with COD.

If you want to just freight up. Try:

TNT, IPEC, AAE, fastway (don't know if they deliver to QLD, maybe only NSW), NQX, etc.

Aviod DHL since its only national and they will charge way too much.

I used STAR TRUCK,

Onced i had 8 rims+tyres transport down from NSW though i don't know how much it costed as i did it through my company :thumbsup:. All you need to do is box them up, STAR TRUCK truck will come around and pick them up.

Do you mean Star Track? If so, they are good and deliver the goods. They have a very good business model and customer service is excellent. :)

    • Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action
    • Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand. 
    • Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!
    • I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
